The workshops
AI for productivity and efficiency (09:30 - 13:00)
This session focuses on how centres can use AI to improve day-to-day operations, reducing repetitive work and making better use of staff time. Participants will explore the distinction between AI and automation, with particular attention to data, privacy and operational risk.
The session will also address how to think about the return on investment when adopting new tools or processes.
AI for growth and innovation (14:00 - 17:30)
This session focuses on how AI-enabled innovation could help centres identify new revenue streams, diversify their offer and strengthen the value they provide to learners, clients and partners.
Participants will work through the innovation process in a practical way, from generating ideas and spotting opportunities to testing, refining and planning how those ideas could be introduced.
The session will also consider the leadership and cultural work involved in innovation. Participants will look at practical ways to bring colleagues on board, manage uncertainty, avoid change for its own sake and build confidence around small-scale pilots.
Each session includes a takeaway digital goodie bag: a set of bespoke-designed apps/ frameworks and other tools that leaders can take away and use in their own centres.
