Deployed approximately one week before Session 1, participants baseline their AI familiarity, tool exposure, and workflow priorities — calibrating session content before day one and seeding the organisation’s broader AI readiness picture.

2 hours live session  |  2 hours independent exercises

  • What AI is, what it is not, and why it matters now for public sector agencies
  • Machine Learning, Generative AI, and Agentic AI — practical distinctions, not theory
  • GovTech Generations 3.0 framework: where most agencies are, where early movers are heading, and the 5G agentic frontier

  • Live exercise: participants complete the AI Readiness Assessment for their own organisation

2 hours live session  |  2 hours independent exercises

  • AI governance & ethics: bias, transparency, accountability, and explainability
  • Agentic AI governance: what to delegate to AI vs. what needs a human decision
  • Building AI teams: roles, skills gaps, and how to structure for sustained capability
  • Public–private partnerships: vignettes from peer agencies across regions

Two personalised deliverables built around your agency — not a generic template: 

  • AI Strategy Worksheet: 8 dimensions: value proposition, use cases, prioritisation, ethics & compliance, infrastructure, skills, partnerships, and agentic readiness.
