Overview

The influence of technology in making better decisions, improving services and delivering better outcomes for the public sector is undeniable. One technology driving this transformation is artificial intelligence (AI).

By understanding how to effectively use artificial intelligence (AI), you will be able to make greater sense of your data, improve how you analyse large volumes of information, and enhance your decision making.

Book this bespoke course and help your teams learn how AI currently operates in the public sector and determine what skills and resources are needed to successfully apply it; gain an overview on a range of AI tools, from machine learning to algorithms, and learn how to adopt AI technology both ethically and safely.

This Applying Artificial Intelligence in the Public Sector team training course has been specifically designed to introduce public sector organisations to the theory and practical application of AI.

Through a mixture of trainer led discussions and use of laptops you will leave the day with a greater understanding of AI and how this can be practically used within your organisation.
