Artificial intelligence (AI)

The global adoption rate of artificial intelligence (AI) in businesses is steadily growing year over year. Across BC and Canada, organizations are actively exploring and implementing AI solutions to enhance efficiency, improve decision-making and provide innovative services. This increased interest in AI, however, has created a challenge for organizations due to a lack of skilled professionals with the training required to implement AI-powered automation strategies and processes. 

Our courses and programs are designed to provide the in-demand skills and expertise to plan, integrate and optimize AI technologies within cloud solutions and digital media. Through relevant content and expert instruction, gain key competencies to make critical decisions and consider the ethical implications of incorporating AI to position your organization for success.

The courses we offer in this area can be taken separately or taken in succession to complete a credential.
