So You Want to Adopt A.I. - Now What?
This webinar covers how lessons learned from earlier technology implementations, such as ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), can apply to successful A.I. adoption. Although A.I. holds the same transformative capability, many organizations are finding a slow return on investment for A.I. adoption. Watch this webinar recording to gain a better understanding of how A.I. will impact your people, processes, and overall business performance.

Understanding Cyber Threats in the Age of AI
This webinar covers examines documented cases of A.I.-enabled attacks and system failures, explores how adversaries are using A.I. to automate hacking and social engineering, and discusses what defenders must do differently in an A.I.-accelerated threat landscape, and acts as a direct segue to our Defending Complex Systems in the A.I. Era program.

A note from the instructor regarding the "Project Management Essentials" webinar above:
"There was a question about whether someone should use Waterfall or Agile when conducting a project. In my response, I noted that there are three common approaches—Waterfall, Concurrent, and Agile—and that the choice depends on the project’s goals. However, I misspoke in describing Waterfall and Concurrent.
To clarify: Waterfall follows a strictly sequential process. Each phase must be fully completed before moving on to the next. This often makes projects longer but more structured. It is best for projects with very clear, stable requirements and little expected change. Concurrent allows phases to overlap, meaning work on a new phase can begin while the previous one is still in progress. This can shorten the overall project timeline by running activities in parallel. It is best for projects where speed is important and teams can collaborate across functions. Agile, of course, takes a more iterative and flexible approach, adjusting work in cycles based on feedback and changing requirements."
