Keynote: Higher Ed, AI, and the Road Ahead
To better serve students, colleges need to understand the evolving world of work and hiring. Ginni Rometty, who previously lead IBM and is currently a member of Northwestern University’s Board of Trustees, will discuss how her former company used a “skills first” approach to hiring and talent development, what that means for higher ed, and leadership advice gleaned from her book, Good Power: Leading Positive Change in Our Lives, Work, and World.
Interview: College to Career
Colleges today work in a different educational ecosystem than they did a decade ago. New providers and new technologies are changing the game. How can traditional institutions thrive in this environment? Join Marni Baker Stein of Coursera, a leading online-education platform that works with colleges and companies, about the new possibilities for partnership, the role of artificial intelligence, and what lies ahead.
Interview: A New Era of Partnership and Tech
Higher education institutions are continually asked to do more with less. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers an important opportunity to automate tasks and allow more time for staff to support the complex needs of higher education institutions with higher value services. Amidst all the excitement and promise of Generative AI, practical use cases for AI services like Intelligent Document Processing can offer significant improvements to higher education’s administrative processes, reduce friction and augment capacity.
