Prepare to win with “AI for Business & Government”

This learning journey prepares senior managers to make decisions related to the application of AI in their business environment and it equips business professionals with the skills necessary to work on an AI initiative.  This programme has been established by the The Netherlands AI Coalition (NL AIC) and we have been intimately involved with its development, including authoring the syllabus itself and supporting the creation of an exam based certification.

This programme covers all the key aspects of AI that managers and professionals need to know.  This includes the applications and benefits, the machine learning techniques and algorithms, the use of data and the ethical and societal implications to make AI trustworthy.  The programme ends with a review of how humans and machines will collaborate in the new digital age and highlights future developments of AI technology.

The syllabus can be found in the course materials section above.  This is based upon widely accepted academic and governmental references.
