The Cyber Skills Center at Tulsa Community College is expanding to offer a new boot camp program tailored to meet the growing demand for skills in artificial intelligence (AI). The AI boot camp is the Cyber Skills Center’s third program offering, joining existing boot camps for Cybersecurity and Data Analytics.
