Program Overview
IT teams today sit at the center of enterprise transformation, yet their own workflows often remain manual, overloaded, and reactive. This program equips IT professionals with hands-on skills to leverage AI for faster troubleshooting, system monitoring, incident management, documentation, automation, and stakeholder communication. From using GenAI for scripting and coding assistance to deploying AI-driven analytics for network, application, and security visibility, participants learn how to transform day-to-day IT operations with practical, safe, and reliable AI adoption. The course also introduces governance, data security, and responsible use practices to ensure IT teams can lead by example before scaling AI capabilities across other business functions.
