AI as Coach: Transforming Professional and Continuing Education
In continuing education, learning doesn’t end when the course is completed. Professionals, executives, and lifelong learners often require months of follow-up, guidance, and reinforcement to fully integrate new knowledge into their work and personal lives. Traditionally, human coaches have filled this role—whether in leadership development, career advancement, corporate training, or personal growth. However, the cost and accessibility of one-on-one coaching remain significant barriers. AI-driven coaching has the potential to bridge this gap, providing continuous, personalized support at scale.

Are we ready to embrace that vision, or will we let machines lead the way? Let's ensure the future remains human-centered.
