Digital strategy and continuous updating (AI, data, cloud)
Map the AI, data, and cloud building blocks of a digital strategy into a one-page reference you write yourself, defining each term in your own words.
Explain how a data platform (ingestion, storage, governance, analytics) supports business decisions, using one worked example from an industry you know.
Distinguish continuous updating from one-off transformation by listing signals that a strategy needs revision (new regulation, model release, cost shift).
Draft five exam-style questions on digital strategy vocabulary and answer them without notes.
Your checkpoint
A 2-page personal glossary plus five self-written practice questions with answer keys, scored against your own notes.
Digital strategy and continuous updating (AI, data, cloud)
Compare three cloud service models and justify which fits a given budget and compliance constraint.
Evaluate an AI use case for feasibility, data readiness, and risk, and write a short recommendation.
Describe how to run a small pilot that proves value before scaling, including the metrics you would track.
Identify the governance questions (data ownership, bias, auditability) a manager must raise before approving an AI project.
Your checkpoint
A one-page AI pilot proposal with success metrics, risks, and a go/no-go recommendation.
High-value professional network and alliances
Identify the ten people whose expertise or access would most accelerate your current work, and classify each by what you offer them.
Write a short outreach message that states a specific ask and a specific give, and send it to at least three contacts.
Explain how alliances differ from vendor relationships in terms of shared risk, shared upside, and exit conditions.
Prepare three questions that test whether a prospective partner is genuinely aligned rather than merely interested.
Your checkpoint
A network map of ten named contacts with a give-and-ask note for each, plus three sent outreach messages.
Digital strategy and continuous updating (AI, data, cloud) & High-value professional network and alliances
Combine digital-strategy and network content by drafting talking points for a partner conversation about a data or AI initiative.
Rehearse a five-minute verbal explanation of a cloud or AI decision to a non-technical stakeholder and record it.
Review weeks 1-3 notes and rewrite every concept you could not explain aloud without prompts.
Answer 20 mixed practice questions under timed conditions and log each error by cause.
Your checkpoint
A five-minute recorded briefing plus an error log classifying at least 20 practice-question misses.
Trust, results, success cases and best practices
Structure a success case in situation-action-result form and state the measured outcome explicitly.
Select metrics that demonstrate trustworthiness (reliability, transparency, follow-through) rather than activity volume.
Explain how to document a project so results can be verified by someone outside the team.
Identify three failure patterns in digital projects and the early warning sign for each.
Your checkpoint
One written success case of 400-600 words with quantified results and a verification note.
Trust, results, success cases and best practices
Design a short client or stakeholder feedback loop and specify what you would change based on responses.
Distinguish a best practice from a context-specific practice and justify when copying a practice fails.
Draft a one-page results summary aimed at an executive, leading with outcome and cost.
Critique two of your own past projects for trust gaps and write the corrective action you would take now.
Your checkpoint
An executive one-pager plus a self-critique of two past projects with corrective actions.
Digital experience design: web, UI/UX, branding and marketing
Sketch a web page structure that leads a visitor from problem to proof to action in three scrolls.
Apply three usability heuristics to a real site you use and document each violation with a fix.
Write brand messaging that states audience, promise, and proof in under 60 words.
Plan a small marketing test with one metric, one audience, and one timeframe.
Your checkpoint
A wireframe sketch plus a 60-word brand message and a one-page marketing test plan.

Synthesize all four domains into a single integrated case answer and time yourself at exam pace.
Review your error log and re-answer every missed question type until correct twice.
Condense each domain into ten flashcards and self-test until you reach full recall.
Write a personal exam-day checklist covering pacing, question triage, and flagging for review.
Your checkpoint
A full timed mock case answer plus 40 flashcards and a final error-log review sheet.
