• Mark approximately 20 to 50 assignments per course and provide clear, constructive, and actionable feedback that supports participant development.
• Facilitate meaningful discussions within an online learning community by sharing resources, practical examples, insights, and responses to participant questions.
• Provide ad hoc one-to-one mentoring sessions to participants requiring additional support with course concepts, assignments, or strategic application.
• Participate in selected industry panel discussions and contribute relevant senior-level perspectives on AI strategy, leadership, governance, investment, and implementation.
• Set clear expectations regarding workload, assignment timelines, learning activities, and available resources.
• Monitor participant engagement and identify areas where additional support or intervention may be appropriate.
• Collaborate with relevant delivery and participant-support colleagues to communicate progress, challenges, and emerging learner needs.
