SUMMARY:Webinar 5: From Experimentation to Strategy
DESCRIPTION:This capstone session synthesizes findings from T3 Advisory’s study on institutional AI adoption. It focuses on the shift from isolated pilots to coordinated\, campus‑wide strategy and examines how institutions that are moving beyond experimentation structure governance\, align AI efforts with institutional priorities\, and build shared capacity across campus. The session outlines the key practices that distinguish institutions progressing toward strategic integration. \nThis session is intended for senior leadership\, strategic planning committees\, and AI working group leads preparing to move from exploration to action. \nSpeakers: \nDr. Audrey Ellis\, Founder & Principal\, T3 Advisory

SUMMARY:Webinar 4: Navigating AI Costs\, Risks\, and Governance
DESCRIPTION:This session examines the full range of costs associated with institutional AI adoption. It addresses both direct expenses such as licensing fees\, and the less visible resource commitments required\, including time\, staffing\, and organizational culture. The session also highlights challenges related to a rapidly evolving vendor landscape\, where AI features are released faster than governance structures can adapt. A framework will be presented to help institutions understand and plan for the financial and organizational requirements needed before scaling AI use. \nThis session is intended for presidents\, CFOs\, CIOs\, budget officers\, procurement leads\, and compliance officers who oversee institutional resources and risk. \nSpeakers: \n\nDr. Audrey Ellis\, Founder & Principal\, T3 Advisory\nNorman Palmer\, Director of Technology & Innovation\, Complete College America
