About the Event
Description: As universities develop AI courses and certifications, a central challenge persists: how do you teach AI when the tools, models, and best practices are constantly changing? Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU) addresses this by focusing on transferable decision-making skills rather than tool-specific training. This session explores a future-ready AI certification model that equips students to evaluate AI tools, apply ethical and responsible use principles, and adapt their practices as AI technologies continue to change.
