What is the ISO 20000 for Senior Data course about?

Innovative AI work often runs in isolation, treated as experimental rather than enterprise-grade. Without formal service structures, even successful pilots get deprioritized during budget reviews. Teams that can’t demonstrate operational maturity lose out on funding cycles, while standardized service units absorb the investment.
