- Identify AI fundamentals, including how AI-based approaches work and where they can help address a variety of talent assessment challenges.
- Understand and apply a comprehensive set of criteria for evaluating AI-based approaches to talent assessment that includes all relevant legal, professional, and ethical standards.
- Identify concrete steps that an organization can take to implement AI-based solutions within its talent assessment processes, including the technological, structural, and communication-related factors that must be addressed during the implementation process.
