Assess the most consequential AI risks facing higher education institutionsÂ
Establish clear governance, accountability, and risk appetite for institutional AI
Equip the board with the information, metrics, and decisions needed for effective AI oversight
Balance AI risk and opportunity to support responsible AI adoption and institutional value
AI is creating new opportunities for higher education institutions, but it is also raising questions about oversight, accountability and risk. As AI adoption accelerates across teaching, research and administration, boards are increasingly looking to CIOs and other executive leaders to provide clear risk assessments, governance frameworks and guidance on institutional priorities.
This webinar explores how CIOs are framing AI risk for boards and senior executives through four critical lenses: regulatory and compliance exposure, operational and cybersecurity risk, academic and research integrity, and the strategic opportunities and ROT that AI presents. Gartner will examine the information, metrics and governance approaches that help boards oversee AI effectively while balancing risk management with institutional value creation.
