Introducing the EDMAssociation’s AI Optimisation Masterclass. This is a first-of-its-kind course in the industry where AI, data, and people strategy are discussed to drive a successful AI optimisation streatgy and support better outcomes.

What You’ll Learn

  • The importance of a shared language for AI optimisation, leveraging EDM Association’s global industry best practice frameworks and standards towards trusted and independent AI standards.
  • How to develop a clear AI-ready data roadmap to guide your organisation to accurate, reliable, and explainable AI that your executive AI board can trust.
  • Wide-scale up-skilling of the data community towards modern data management, automation, best practices, and faster design-to-deploy cadence – from silo to cross-functional data management teams.
  • Independent suite to AI-specific technology and tool selection and adoption, supporting the upgrade from legacy to new data management tooling and AI readiness.
  • Shift to “machine-readable” data, semantics and meaning.

“Overall, I found the masterclass to be well-structured and insightful. The strongest aspect of the course is its clear positioning that AI success is fundamentally driven by data readiness, governance, and architecture, rather than models alone…The holistic coverage across data, technology, and organisational change also provided a balanced perspective suitable for both executive and practitioner audiences.”

Srinivas Varanasi, Senior Manager – Data Trust & AI Governance, Capgemini Australia
