Enterprise AI decisions are moving fast in #HigherEd.

No campus has an “office of AI contract decisions.”

So we built a free framework to help leaders evaluate vendors, protect student data, and align legal + IT before signing.

Good ideas are emerging on campuses across the country. The challenge is making sure they travel. Our CEO @BBurnsEDU testified before Congress on building the infrastructure to help them spread.

AI should not become another force that concentrates advantage in the hands of a small number of campuses. Our CEO @BBurnsEDU testified before Congress on what it will take to ensure every student benefits.

One of the questions raised during last week's congressional hearing on #AI and #HigherEducation was how lessons from well-resourced institutions can reach campuses with fewer resources.

Rep. Bobby Scott posed that question to our CEO @BBurnsEDU.

Here's what she had to say.

Happy #NationalHigherEducationDay! 🎓

To the students who showed up, pushed through, and walked across that stage, and to everyone who believed in them along the way.

"Most institutions are not resisting #AI. They are trying to navigate it. But most of them are navigating it alone."

Yesterday, our CEO @BBurnsEDU testified before the @EdWorkforceCmte and shared how our members are innovating together.
