New episode of the CDC Tech Life Podcast is live.
Episode 73 features Bailey Hayne, Community and Operations Manager at Charleston Digital, on an initiative she has been leading at the Charleston learning Center: the AI Academy, a new program built to meet people wherever they are in their AI adoption journey, whether they are just getting started or building toward more advanced use in their work.
Bailey shares what went into shaping the program, the questions she kept hearing from professionals and organizations across Charleston, and why accessible, no-hype AI education matters more than ever for a workforce navigating rapid change.
If you are an operator, a business leader, or someone trying to figure out where AI fits into your work, this one is worth your time.
