AI Enterprise Architecture is a comprehensive online course that teaches leaders and practitioners how to transform their organizations for the AI era. Unlike tool-specific training that becomes obsolete quickly, this course teaches vendor-agnostic frameworks for organizational transformation—while helping you discover your own leadership patterns under systemic change.

This course is designed for operators and managers guiding teams through AI transformation, strategy and innovation leaders responsible for AI initiatives, technical professionals transitioning to leadership roles, and consultants who need frameworks to guide client organizations. If you're the type of person who considers MIT Sloan or Harvard Extension programs but values practitioner-driven insight over academic credentials, this course is for you.

Academic programs tend to be research-driven and theoretical. This course is practitioner-driven and immediately applicable. You won't just learn about AI transformation—you'll build a complete 90-day roadmap for your actual organization. And uniquely, the course reveals your leadership patterns as you learn, not just what AI can do for organizations generally.

Vendor certifications teach you their specific tools and create dependency on their ecosystem. This course is vendor-agnostic by design. You'll learn to evaluate any vendor, avoid lock-in, and build architecture that outlasts any specific technology choice.

The course is designed for 8-10 hours of focused work, spread across 8 modules. Each module is self-contained and can be completed in 60-90 minutes. You can move at your own pace—there are no deadlines.

Every module includes reflection prompts that help you discover your own patterns when facing organizational uncertainty. By Module 7, you'll generate a Personal Leadership Operating Manual—a self-knowledge document based on all your responses throughout the course. This parallel track is what makes the course transformative rather than just informational.

Learn Path lets you complete the frameworks and concepts without applying them to your actual organization. Apply Path includes additional exercises where you apply each framework to your real-world context. Both paths earn completion, but Apply Path generates richer artifacts and deeper insights.

Yes, you'll receive a certificate of completion after finishing all 8 modules. The certificate notes whether you completed the Learn Path or Apply Path.

The AI assistant is powered by Claude and acts as a learning coach. It's designed to guide your thinking rather than do the work for you. It knows your current module context and can provide feedback on your assessment responses, help clarify concepts, and ask questions that reveal blind spots.

Free users (Module 0 only) get 20 questions per month. Paid users get 100 questions per month. The count resets on the 1st of each month.

Yes. The AI tracks patterns in how you ask questions and adapts its response style accordingly. Some learners prefer detailed explanations; others want direct action items. The AI adjusts without you needing to declare preferences.

The full course is $297, a one-time payment for lifetime access. Module 0 (Orientation) is completely free—no credit card required. This lets you experience the course format and complete your baseline leadership assessment before deciding to purchase.
