Adapting your workflow: using AI in institutional operations
Beatrice Segura Harvey
This session explores the use of accessible AI tools to support key operational areas within academic management. Using a realistic case study Beatrice will demonstrate how AI can assist with workflow design, communication, and reduce manual/repetitive tasks. Participants will be introduced to prompt structuring techniques, basic testing methods for AI-generated content, and considerations for integration into existing systems. The session focuses on practical, cost-effective strategies that can be implemented without advanced technical knowledge.
