How the MasterPath works

The Generative AI MasterPath brings together seven complementary learning pathways that address the full range of AI-enabled academic and institutional work.

You can:

  • follow the pathways sequentially for a comprehensive development journey, or
  • focus on specific areas depending on your role and priorities


Either way, you build a coherent, transferable AI capability that supports both day-to-day practice and longer-term institutional needs.
