Hyd: AI increasingly important in modern office administration: BRAOU Vice-Chancellor

Hyderabad, Nov 9 (UNI) Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in modern office administration, and university employees should acquire the necessary skills to use emerging technologies to improve efficiency and productivity, Dr B.R. Ambedkar Open University (BRAOU) Vice-Chancellor Prof. Ghanta Chakrapani said on Monday.
Inaugurating a six-half-day training programme on 'AI for Office Administration' organised jointly by the Centre for Staff Training and Development (CSTD) and the Centre for Online Education Learning (COEL) at the university, he advised employees to adopt AI tools in their daily administrative work while ensuring the accuracy of AI-generated information.
AI could help employees complete more work in less time and improve accuracy and efficiency, but they should not depend entirely on the technology and must verify its output before using it, he said.
University Registrar Dr L. Vijaya Krishna Reddy, who attended as the Guest of Honour, said technology and AI-based tools had become essential for administrative processes. The university was organising training programmes for employees in phases to equip them with the skills required to use these tools effectively and ensure faster, more transparent and efficient administration.
Prof. K. Sridevi, Director of CSTD, who presided over the programme, said the university would organise more training sessions for non-teaching and technical staff in the coming days.
The programmes aimed at developing professional skills, updating employees' knowledge and strengthening their capabilities to ensure smooth and efficient administration, she said.
Junior Assistants, JACTs, Data Entry Operators and Record Assistants are participating in the training, which covers the use of AI tools in office administration and practical procedures to improve workplace efficiency.
Retired Deputy Director of the Telangana State Treasury Department Sivakumar Reddy attended as a special trainer and imparted training on preparation of effective office note files and administrative procedures.
Officers and employees from various university departments participated in the programme.
