What is the Mid-Market AI Center-of-Excellence Building course about?

Mid-market organizations face unique challenges when launching AI initiatives: high expectations, limited headcount, and fragmented tooling. Without a clear operating model, teams default to isolated pilots that don’t scale. The pressure to deliver fast often comes at the cost of sustainability, compliance, or long-term alignment. What’s needed is a lightweight, actionable CoE blueprint that enables speed without sacrificing coherence.
