AI may already be showing up in board work, even as the policies, technology, and governance practices surrounding it continue to develop. The challenge is knowing where your institution stands and what may need attention.
Before the session, participants complete the five-minute Higher Education AI Governance Readiness Assessment and receive an immediate, private result.
During the session, Jason Ferguson of OnBoard will reveal the group’s aggregated findings, including where AI is being used, what is slowing progress, and what participating institutions need next. Anonymous polls and practical governance scenarios will help participants compare their own experience with peers without sharing individual assessment results.
Participants will leave with a clearer view of their AI governance foundations and practical questions to bring back to their board, leadership team, IT, or legal counsel.
Learning Objectives
- Compare their institution’s AI governance readiness with other participating institutions.
- Identify potential gaps across policy, information handling, technology, and workflow.
- Understand the barriers most commonly slowing AI adoption in higher education governance.
- Build a foundation for the peer discussion and practical next steps explored in Sessions 2 and 3.
