Why AI Training Matters for Higher Education
Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a buzzword; it is a tool that is revolutionizing how knowledge is delivered, personalized, and assessed. Higher education institutions must embrace these innovations to prepare students for a tech-driven workforce. The training provided by IACE aimed to:

The training focused on equipping educators and administrators with practical AI tools, fostering a mindset of continuous learning and innovation. Sessions included insights into AI-powered educational platforms, data analytics, and ethical considerations in deploying AI technologies.
Importance of Upgrading and Upskilling
The rapid evolution of technology demands that professionals continuously upgrade their knowledge and skills. For educators, this is particularly vital:
- Staying Relevant: Modern students grow up surrounded by technology. Educators must understand these tools to connect effectively.
