CMI Level 7 Award in Strategic Leadership of AI

AI leadership is increasingly crucial in today’s business landscape, as organisations face growing pressure to leverage intelligent technologies for innovation, efficiency, and growth.

These managers and leaders will likely be non-technical practitioners. Through these qualifications, they will develop an awareness of strategic AI leadership, and develop skills to put learning into practice through strategy development and change leadership related to AI implementation.

Delegates will be required to complete one 3000 – 4000 word written assignment that requires taught theory to be applied to the strategic organisational context:

Each session combines expert input, case studies and practical workshops
