Artificial intelligence is no longer just transforming healthcare - it is reshaping how we work, learn, and lead. As AI becomes increasingly embedded in public services and everyday life, developing the right skills and capabilities is essential to unlocking its full potential.
Join us on Friday 7 November for the second webinar in our international series, hosted in collaboration between the Digital Health & Care Innovation Centre and the Centre for e-health at the University of Agder, Norway. This session will focus on the practical side of AI: the skills, tools, and mindsets needed to thrive in an AI-enabled world.
During this event, our panel of experts will present insights into key AI competencies for professionals across health and care, on how to build digital confidence and data literacy, as well as offer examples of real-world upskilling initiatives on AI in Scotland and in Norway.
By investing in skills and sharing knowledge across borders, we can shape a future where technology enhances human potential and delivers better outcomes for all.
This webinar is the second one in a two-part series. The first one focussed on AI from a policy and ethics perspectives. The recordings from the two sessions will be made available at the end of the year.
