Leveraging AI for performance and strategic decision-making: Data Science & AI for Business Certificate from SKEMA x MINES Paris–PSL

07 October 2025 Career

AI is now a must for any organisation looking to stay competitive. It is redefining the way companies innovate, make decisions and steer their strategies. For SKEMA-trained alumni and managers, the question is no longer whether AI should be integrated, but how to master it and make it a real performance driver.

This is precisely the mission of the Data Science & AI for Business Certificate, designed jointly by SKEMA Business School and MINES Paris- PSL Executive Education. This programme aims to help decision-makers transform data and artificial intelligence into concrete value-creating assets. Combining technical rigour and managerial vision, it offers a pragmatic and strategic learning framework.

 

Since its launch, through 14 sessions over 100 participants have been able to strengthen their understanding of data-related issues, experiment with AI tools (including generative AI) and develop a more enlightened approach to digital transformation.

 

In particular, participants learn to:

  • Decode the opportunities and limits of AI, including generative AI.

  • Get to grips with AI tools to measure their real uses and impact.

  • Identify value-creation levers and anticipate risks, particularly ethical ones.

  • Develop a solid managerial approach to steering digital transformation.

The certificate's major assets include:

  • 100% online training, with interactive sessions led by experts.

  • The alliance of two leading Grandes Écoles, combining scientific excellence and business vision.

  • Certification recognised by France CompĂ©tences (RS7029) and  eligible for the CPF (personal training account).

  • Alumni discount of 13%, i.e. €3,436.50 instead of €3,950.

The next session begins on 25 November. It will be led by Amandine Prou, Data & AI Director - RATP Smart Systems.
