The Quantum Workforce and Educational Resources
summary
Claims that PhD output has stayed roughly flat over five years while job openings grow year‑on‑year, creating a talent bottleneck; recommends short‑term upskilling and retraining engineers rather than immediate mass hiring. Cites a searchable QtEdu database and an arXiv paper mapping masters programs (excluding tangential optics courses). Built resources include an e-learning platform, sector courses (finance), recruitment as a service, tutorials and regional events (Quantum Eastern Europe, Quantum Latino) to connect industry needs with available candidates and to shift hiring from PhD‑only to industry‑experienced masters/bachelors.
