Universities worldwide are presented with a powerful opportunity to harness AI to enhance curriculum design, advance research capabilities, improve operational efficiency, and elevate student experience and retention.
However, alongside these opportunities comes the responsibility to adopt AI in an ethical, structured, and informed way. Institutions must not only use AI effectively but also lead the development of AI literacy, governance frameworks, and institutional policies.
This webinar explores the importance of building and strengthening AI literacy at both individual and institutional levels. It introduces a practical and systematic approach based on a leading theoretical framework developed by Dr. Lynette Pretorius at Monash University, designed to support universities in integrating AI responsibly and strategically.
Participants will gain insights into how academic staff and researchers can evolve into effective AI collaborators and leaders—an increasingly essential factor in employability, innovation, and institutional success.
