Bridging the Gap

Jordan's education sector faces persistent capacity gaps that limit the delivery of high-quality and equitable learning outcomes. These challenges include shortages of qualified teachers, regional disparities in resources, weaknesses in professional development systems, and workforce planning constraints. As Jordan advances its digital transformation agenda, artificial intelligence (AI) and modern human resource management (HRM) practices offer viable solutions to these systemic issues. This chapter examines how AI-enabled HRM tools can enhance educational capacity through data-driven recruitment, personalized professional development, predictive workforce analytics, and improved talent retention. Drawing on international frameworks and global developments, the chapter positions AI-HRM as a strategic enabler of human capital development aligned with national education reform priorities, while emphasizing the need to address infrastructure, data governance, and capacity-building challenges.
