Implementing EdTech and Artificial Intelligence in an Institution

Successfully implementing EdTech and AI across an educational institution requires a strategic approach that aligns with institutional goals, fosters a culture of innovation, and supports sustainable growth. This one-day workshop equips educators and administrators with the essential tools and frameworks to lead EdTech and AI initiatives effectively. Through guided discussions, hands-on activities, and case studies, participants will develop a strategic implementation plan, learn to evaluate and select appropriate tools, and address common challenges in EdTech and AI integration. By the end of the day, you’ll leave with a roadmap for driving technology adoption that aligns with your institution’s vision, ensuring lasting impact and continuous improvement.
