Drop-In Q&A Session with SCS Student Success Centre Representatives
Join us online on Tuesday, September 29th at noon for the Drop-In Question and Answer Session with representatives of the School of Continuing Studies Student Success Centre.
Info Session: Cloud Security Micro-credential
With the continuous evolution of cybersecurity threats and the rapid expansion of cloud computing, the demand for skilled cloud security professionals is expected to rise significantly.
Systems Thinking and Simulating the Global Climate
The global economy and climate interact to create a complex system. As we establish businesses and societies to enhance Earth’s sustainability, systemic issues such as poverty, resource consumption, chronic disease, and climate change share some traits: they’re slow to fix, are interconnected, and impact everyone.
AI Can Build the Project Plan, Can You Lead It?
While AI supports project planning, analysis, reporting, and documentation, successful projects still heavily rely on people to build trust, navigate uncertainty, influence stakeholders, manage resistance, and lead teams. Through an interactive case study, we will discuss Agile and hybrid project management approaches, exploring how project leadership, stakeholder engagement and interpersonal skills remain essential for achieving successful outcomes in an AI-enabled environment.
The New Frontiers of Wellness in HR Technology
Wearables, predictive analytics and AI are dissolving the boundary between “HR technology” and “employee well-being.” Wellness is no longer a benefit bolted onto the workplace — it is increasingly engineered into the systems that hire, manage, and support people. This session maps that emerging frontier and equips leaders to adopt these tools in a way that is effective, ethical, and measurable.
AI & Cybersecurity: The Future of Digital Defence
This session will examine the evolving intersection of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. It will explore how AI is transforming cyber threats, strengthening security operations, and creating new challenges for organizations. The discussion will also address emerging risks, responsible AI adoption, and the skills required to build resilient cybersecurity capabilities in an increasingly AI-driven digital environment.
Systems Thinking for Better Decision Making
Some problems are like clocks: take them apart, you can predict how they'll behave. Others are like clouds: shifting, unpredictable, never fully knowable. Most policy work treats every problem as a clock — a habit that causes real harm once human beings are involved. Drawing on his OCPM public consultation work, his transport strategy background, and his systems thinking teaching at SCS, Marc looks at how to tell a clock from a cloud and why it matters for policy.
From Learning to Leadership: Alumni Journeys
Alumni from McGill SCS Technology & Innovation programs will share how they moved from the classroom into professional roles. Join this conversation to gain practical advice for choosing a program, beginning your studies, and navigating careers. Our alumni will talk about the paths they took, the challenges they encountered, the work they do today, and the concrete ways their SCS education prepared them.
