abstract = "As Co-Packaged Optics drives advanced packaging solutions for data centers, AI computing, and sensing/imaging systems, digital twins and digital games offer just-in-time training support for rapid reskill/upskill of engineers and technicians. Recent advances in digital twins of select packaging tools for CPO (fiber-attach, die saw, die bonder) will be presented with early results on learner experience within a bootcamp based setting. In addition, learner results will be presented for a digital game that trains in Life Cycle Thinking for resource-efficient manufacturing. This new photonics education frontier expands CPO curricula to emphasize broad training in the resource flows of the semiconductor manufacturing supply chain, to assess enabling integrated photonics solutions for systems, and in fabrication or packaging.",
