ABSTRACT

While Education institutions have the ambition to implement agentic AI, they need to pursue it with a structured method for matching opportunity to readiness.

Educational institutions are facing increasing administrative workloads, enrollment competition, and student support demands. Agentic AI presents a viable solution to alleviate these pressures. Institutions that fail to adopt AI risk falling behind those already reaping its benefits.

Often, institutions recognize the potential of agentic AI but hesitate to commit due to the fear of wasted resources and loss of stakeholder trust from a potential failed first deployment. There is a significant gap between acknowledging the opportunity of agentic AI and actually executing on it. Failing to act on agentic AI can lead to wasted resources and a loss of stakeholder trust.

Info-Tech provides a method for identifying suitable agentic AI opportunities from both a top-down approach, by selecting from case studies, and a bottom-up approach, by identifying opportunities through analysis of institutional capabilities. Use a maturity framework to understand both the complexity and the risk associated with different AI opportunities.

Select with confidence a specific agentic AI opportunity to pilot.
