Your staff may already be experimenting with AI. But, does your agency know which use cases make sense? And what data should never enter an AI tool? Who reviews AI-generated work? And which workflows are actually worth investing in? That's the gap between using AI and being ready for AI. Over six weeks, Tom Sanchez will guide planners through the people, data, technology, use cases, and governance questions that shape responsible AI adoption in public agencies. You'll finish with more than ideas: an Agency AI Readiness Brief, draft policy provisions, planning-specific workflows, and a phased roadmap you can bring back to leadership. Fall cohort starts October 15, 2026.
