    Halifax Chamber of Commerce Building 32 Akerley Blvd, Dartmouth NS B3B 1N1 Halifax Chamber of Commerce Building 32 Akerley Blvd, Dartmouth NS, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada

    PLEASE NOTE: This training has eligibility requirements for participation listed below - please read carefully The objective of the Using ChatGPT in Predictive and Agile Projects course is to provide guidance to participants on how to create project plans and work in project delivery using input from the AI tool ChatGPT. This course provides a place where participants can share ideas on creating workable project plans using the intelligence of this tool. Despite widespread reports of organizations heavily investing in AI, the 2023 PMI Annual Global Survey on Project Management found that only 21% of respondents are using AI always or often when managing projects. Compared to the 82% of senior leaders who say AI will have at least some impact on projects, there’s a disconnect between current and aspirational use. This course shows how to integrate AI, through ChatGPT and PMI Infinity, in projects. We will go through numerous examples of doing so, and participants will practice using these tools to gain knowledge and experience. The expected impact of this training will be more knowledgeable personnel who are using the new AI tools effectively for the specific application of project management. Due to the shared information provided by the […]

    Doing Work That Matters – UX NS Meetup

    February 25 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm AST
    Siemens Healthineers 1675 Grafton St Suite 400, Halifax, NS, Canada

    Details UX NS is excited to welcome Barb Spanton to this month’s meetup! There’s a quiet shift happening in the industry. UX professionals are drawn to work that genuinely helps people - work that aims to make a difference and solve real problems. For many, that path leads to healthcare products and services. Then reality hits. Doing meaningful work in healthcare is hard. Progress is slow. Regulation is heavy. Legacy systems, complex integrations, and high stakes are the norm. Meanwhile, fast-moving startups promise higher pay, shinier titles, and the thrill of “moving fast and breaking things.” This talk looks beyond the idealized idea of “meaningful work” and into the lived reality of creating impact in complex, highly regulated domains. With Barb Spanton, this session will explore what impact really means in healthcare, why it’s often underestimated, and how professionals can find purpose, progress, and influence—even when the work is anything but glamorous. Join UX NS for an engaging and thought-provoking evening. Snacks and drinks will be served. Agenda 7:00 PM Doors open, networking time, snacks and drinks 7:15 PM Introductions from the event hosts, Nata and Ruby 7:20 PM Doing Work That Matters with Barb Spanton 7:50 PM Q&A 8:15 PM Networking and wrap-up 8:45 PM Doors close […]
