SUMMARY:ICBE Advanced Productivity Skillnet Lunchtime Bites Webinar "Lean Service Operations Management"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Alex McDonnell \nExpertivity \n(20mins panel discussion with 10min Q&A) \nPlaces are limited and booking is essential. \nICBE Advanced Productivity Skillnet brings you this practical webinar on Lean in Service Operations \nService Operations Management is the science and discipline of empowering teams and managers with the new information and insights required to cocreate higher organisation-wide performance in modern service\, knowledge-work organisations or business support functions. \nTraditional non-service sector organisations are mostly complicated\, and most management tools and methods were designed to solve their complicated problems.  Service and Knowledge-Work organisations however are mostly complex\, a difference that’s profound in its implications for the skills\, tools and methods required to dramatically improve their performance. Team leaders and managers of business support functions\, service and knowledge-work organisations who have developed these new skills\, methods and tools have seen their CX soar while doubling or even trebling their productivity in less than 6 months. \n\nLean Service Operations Management…… the new science and disciplines necessary for managing complex organisations in a volatile world.\nComplicated – Complex… what’s the difference and why does in matter.\nBeyond managing to cohering … why it matters to the modern knowledge workforce.\nWhy Service Operations Management is a key foundational requirement for sustaining Lean\n\nAlex McDonnell – Expertivity : Alex is one of Europe’s leading experts in helping service and knowledge work organisations build Enterprise/Operational Excellence (including Lean and Six Sigma) as a core competence throughout organisations. \nHe is an exceptionally experienced management practitioner and holds a BA in Management\, an MBA\, an MSc in Lean Management Systems\, a diploma in Systems Thinking from MIT and is a certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black belt (LSS MBB). \nExpertivity Technologies\, who have been helping service and knowledge work organisations to dramatically improve their performance for nearly 20 years and the Technological University Dublin\, have come together to develop and deliver a level 7 programme designed to develop these new skills\, methods and tools in Service and Knowledge-Work organisations. This programme is designed to dramatically improve the performance of both public and private sector organisations which together account for over 80% of modern economies. \nModules 1 & 2 of this hands-on\, practitioner-led programme build the foundational skills\, methods\, and tools for managing in a complex organisation. With these foundations in place\, the more advanced management practices of Lean Management\, delivered in module 3\, are easier to deploy and more likely to embed and sustain over time. \n\nModule 1 – Developing The High Performing Team Leader\nModule 2 – Interteam Dynamics and Optimising Team Performance\nModule 3 – Understanding and Applying Tools for Continuous Improvement\n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Machine Learning for Finance
DESCRIPTION:ICBE Advanced Productivity Skillnet is delighted to support the following programme at the University of Limerick\n\nCourse overview \n\nThe MSc. in Machine Learning for Finance is a unique\, interdisciplinary programme. It blends applied\, practical financial theory with an advanced technical skillset derived from computer science. \nThe programme will be offered online-only\, and part-time over two years\, with an initial intake in September 2020. \n\nWhy have we introduced this course?\n\nThe MSc. in Machine Learning for Finance has been launched in response to the significant demand for upskilling and reskilling in financial services and in-company finance functions. In particular\, there is considerable industry demand for applied technical and quantitative skills combined with strong financial knowledge. \nA recent CFA Institute study found that 43% of its members and candidates expect their roles to change significantly in the next 5-10 years with the interaction of artificial intelligence (AI) and human intelligence (HI) becoming the norm. Similarly\, a study conducted by The Bank of England (BoE) and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)  found that machine learning is increasingly being used across financial services. Key adopters included banks\, credit brokers\, e-money institutions\, financial market infrastructure firms\, investment managers\, insurers\, non-bank lenders and principal trading firms. \nIBM predicts that the most significant demand globally for Data Science and Analytics (DSA) jobs is in Finance and Insurance\, Professional Services\, and IT; together\, these three industries alone account for 59% of all DSA job demand. Ireland is home to many financial companies and most of the largest social media companies. This influx is likely to continue\, but key skills shortages may slow the economic benefits. \n  \n\nWhy we’re different?\n\nThe MSc in Machine Learning for Finance is the first\, fully online programme of its kind in Ireland. \nIt leverages the experience\, knowledge and expertise from the industry-led MSc in Artificial Intelligence. Coupled with the award-winning finance postgraduate offerings in the Kemmy Business School\, this programme provides a focussed upskilling initiative addressing widening AI skills shortage in the financial services industry. \n  \n\nProgramme summary in 10 words\n\nUnique\, flexible\, online programme integrating quantitative finance and applied AI. \n  \n\nFurther Information\n\n  \n\nCourse Contact information\n\nName: Dr Barry Sheehan \nRole: Course Director \n  \n\nApplications / Funding :  \n\nPlease apply directly to the University of Limerick and advise them that ICBE Advanced Productivity Skillnet is a sponsor. \n  \nThe contact person for the application process is : \n  \n  \nFor information regarding funding only\, please contact : \n  \n  \n  \n
