About this Event
Join us for a specialized 3-day program to learn and leverage the CARE-AI Framework in assessing your organization’s readiness, barriers, and key priorities for AI use and leave with an actionable, personalized AI implementation plan.
You’ll work through implementation strategies, explore real-world case scenarios, and engage in meaningful discussions with peers facing similar challenges in complex health systems. The goal is not just to learn about AI, but to leave ready to apply it.
To round out the experience, participants are invited to connect beyond the classroom during a social afternoon in beautiful Gatineau Park. This is an opportunity to build relationships, exchange ideas, and enjoy one of the most beautiful natural settings of the Nation’s Capital.
