The programme addresses knowledge gaps in AI, simplifies the integration process, and helps executives keep pace with evolving AI technologies through real-world case studies and practical applications.

Hybrid Learning Model Offers Flexibility for Busy Executives

The training combines in-person sessions with live virtual components, providing flexibility to fit into demanding executive schedules. Participants engage in interactive webinars and peer networking, which encourage hands-on learning and collaboration with industry experts and fellow leaders.

The structured curriculum covers advanced AI concepts, technical foundations, governance frameworks, and ethical considerations. This comprehensive approach equips executives with the knowledge necessary to lead AI-driven initiatives responsibly and effectively.

Amit Gupta, Vice President of Data & AI at e& enterprise, emphasized the importance of moving beyond basic AI knowledge. The programme aims to develop an AI-savvy leadership community capable of translating AI potential into measurable business impact while maintaining ethical standards and sustainability.

Executives will gain insights into industry-specific AI applications across sectors like finance, healthcare, and telecommunications. Real-world examples from e& enterprise and other leading businesses will enable participants to apply AI strategies directly to their organisations.

Leveraging Technology for Effective Learning

Emeritus’ advanced Learning Management System (LMS) supports flexible learning paths and tracks participant progress. This allows executives to advance at their own pace without compromising their professional commitments.

Adey Zaghab, Executive Vice President of Emeritus for the META region, highlighted the programme’s role in preparing senior executives for the responsibilities of Chief AI Officers by providing a practical, confidence-building learning experience in partnership with prestigious global business schools such as Northwestern Kellogg.

Supporting Regional AI Growth and Sustainability Goals

The partnership leverages Emeritus’ presence in over 80 countries and e& enterprise’s strong regional footprint to attract participants locally and across the Middle East. The programme supports the UAE’s AI strategy to establish the country as an AI leader by 2031, creating a pipeline of qualified AI experts who can enhance business competitiveness.

AI adoption is also linked to sustainability by optimizing operations, reducing energy consumption, and improving resource management. Training leaders to implement AI-driven efficiencies contributes to broader environmental goals, including lowering carbon footprints and promoting greener business practices.
