Digital Business

Today’s leading businesses are leveraging advanced technology and digitization to create new value in their business models and optimizing their digital customer experience. If you are ready to tackle this transformation in your own company or industry and want to ensure you have the tools to do so, pursuing an Executive Certificate in Digital Business will help you deepen and broaden your digital skills, language, and confidence so that you can help your company find that competitive edge. 


What you will learn

Courses in the Digital Business track will provide you with an understanding of and fluency in the advanced technologies most critical to your company’s digital transformation. Your learning journey will bring into sharp focus the reality of digital advancements—such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, augmented reality, machine learning, natural language processing, and robotics—and how they can be harnessed to support your business needs. 

For example, in Accelerating Digital Transformation with Algorithmic Business Thinking, you will learn a series of insights and frameworks for business leaders that enable you to accelerate digital transformation and optimize ROI on AI and technology investments. If you are a senior leader in manufacturing or operations, Implementing Industry 4.0: Leading Change in Manufacturing and Operations will help you implement large scale technological change. And if you are looking for a practical, immersive, hands-on introduction to the extended reality and metaverse technologies Business Implications of Extended Reality (XR) will show you how you can drive and sustain new value from these advancements and digital experiences.
