AI-driven Data Integration & Interoperability

AI is only as good as the data you can unlock: connecting systems, standardising them and making them work together.

Why this module

Why this matters

In every organisation, data is spread across dozens of systems. Every serious AI application therefore starts with integration: unlocking sources, connecting them and bringing them together reliably.

Interoperability — systems that speak each other's language through standards — makes your solutions future-proof. You learn to choose between integration patterns and to set up the connection securely as well.

Content

What you will learn

Application

Directly in your own practice

You design the data integration for an AI application in your own organisation — from source to model.

Sources for an assistant

An information specialist unlocks three document systems into a single searchable knowledge layer.

CRM integration

A commercial analyst connects the CRM to an AI tool that flags sales opportunities — with proper authorisation in place.

Supply chain standard

A logistics employee introduces a single message standard with chain partners — and suddenly the forecasts do add up.

How you work

Learning alongside your job

You take this module the way you take the whole programme: classes every other week on Friday and Saturday, with a study load of 15–20 hours per week, of which 10–15 hours are self-study. The teaching is a mix of classroom lessons, practice-based learning, blended learning and working groups or study teams — taught by lecturers who practise the profession themselves every day.

You conclude each theme with a professional product or a technical solution based on a real situation in your own work, which you discuss in an assessment with the lecturer. This way your portfolio grows with real work — and your employer benefits directly.

After this module you deliver an integration design for a real AI application, including a security section.
