AI in Action: Build Higher Ed Apps in Hours

www.cpace.csulb.edu/courses/applied-analytics-and-machine-learning-for-higher-education What if you could turn institutional data into actionable tools in hours instead of months? The Institutional Research and Analytics team at California State University, Long Beach presents this webinar to learn how artificial intelligence is changing the way higher education professionals work with data, develop applications, and support institutional decision-making. Through live demonstrations and real-world examples, participants explore four foundational institutional datasets commonly used in higher education and see how leading AI coding assistants—including Gemini, Claude, and Codex—can help transform data into functional applications. The session features a live demonstration of how to design a machine learning model to identify students who may be at risk of leaving the institution by the end of their first year. Participants also get a firsthand look at BeachData+, a fully operational production application, and learn a practical framework for developing AI agents that can address a variety of higher education needs. Whether you work in institutional research, student success, administration, technology, or another area of higher education, this webinar offers practical examples of what's possible when AI, institutional data, and human expertise come together. Topics include: AI-powered application development Data and analytics in higher education Gemini, Claude, and Codex coding assistants Machine learning for student success BeachData+ live demonstration Building AI agents for higher education Real-world use cases and best practices
