Optional Workshops for on-site attendees
Personal AI Mastery 2.0: Smarter Living Through Intelligent Tech
4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Sunday, September 13
Artificial intelligence is reshaping banking and financial services at every level — from regulatory analysis and loan documentation to client reporting and back-office automation. Yet for many banking professionals, the gap between awareness and confident, practical use remains wide. This course closes that gap in two focused hours. Designed specifically for banking and financial institution professionals, this session moves participants through a hands-on structured progression — from understanding the AI landscape and building a basic prompting practice, through document intelligence, personal productivity tools, and workflow automation, to a candid discussion of governance, data privacy, and regulatory considerations. The program mirrors the AI Capability Progression framework, advancing participants from Chatbot through Copilot, Custom Skills, Automation, and Agents, with every concept grounded in banking-relevant examples. Participants leave with a clear picture of where they stand on the AI adoption curve, a working set of prompts and frameworks they can use the next business day, and a 30-day personal action plan they can implement immediately. No prior AI experience is required — only the willingness to engage with tools that are already changing the profession.

Demystifying Digital Assets: A Practical Introduction
4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Sunday, September 13
Digital assets continue to gain traction across the financial services industry, but the terminology, underlying concepts, and fast-moving regulatory landscape can be difficult to navigate. Designed as a practical introduction for banking professionals, this workshop covers foundational topics such as cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, blockchain technology, and tokenization/RWAs (real world assets) in straightforward, accessible terms. Participants will explore how these technologies work, review common terminology, and discuss why digital assets are attracting attention from consumers, businesses, and financial institutions. The session also examines recent regulatory and legislative developments shaping the space and what they mean for banks. Attendees will leave with a broad understanding of the digital asset ecosystem, the evolving rules that govern it, and its relevance to the banking industry.
