Knowing about AI is no longer enough. Today's policymakers need to actively apply AI to make better decisions and deliver real value to the citizens they serve.
This workshop is your opportunity to put into practice everything you've learned in Level 1 and Level 2. Through case studies focused on policy development and public administration, you'll work collaboratively in small groups to assess, decide, and apply AI to realistic policy challenges.
