Each webinar academy session focuses on actionable steps—how to operationalize AI-driven automation, institute proactive issue resolution, and enable self-service capabilities across your IT environment. This series is designed to help you break silos, optimize workflows, and turn the vision of uninterrupted, efficient IT operations into reality. We will have product experts on hand to demonstrate concepts, provide actionable guidance, and answer your questions in a live setting. 

Autonomous IT Academy sessions are scheduled for every other Wednesday at 8AM PST/11AM EST. You only need to register here one time for the series to receive automatic notifications for upcoming session.

Future Sessions and On-Demand Recordings:

Date	Topic	Description
July 8, 2026 [upcoming]	Detect Issues Before Outages: Health Log Analytics	Your logs hold early warning signals but nobody's looking until after the outage. Use HLA to detect anomalies and surface issues before impact Correlate log data with events and alerts for faster root cause Turn log telemetry into actionable intelligence
June 24, 2026 [upcoming]	Turn Events into Operational Decisions: Event Management	Thousands of events but no structured process to turn them into decisions. Design event management from ingestion through operational workflows Build alert rules and escalation paths that connect to the right responders Move from reactive firefighting to proactive operations
June 10, 2026 [upcoming]	Stop Treating Every Change the Same: Implementing Change Models	Your change process treats every change the same — standard, normal, and emergency all follow the same slow path. Implement change models that route each type through the right workflow Configure risk-based policies that auto-approve low-risk changes See change models work end to end in a live demo
May 27, 2026 [upcoming]	Measure What Users Actually Experience: Digital Employee Experience	No visibility into how end users actually experience IT on their devices. Measure device health, app performance, and user sentiment Connect endpoint telemetry back to incident and change workflows Close the loop between IT operations and employee productivity
May 13, 2026 [upcoming]	Fix Data Quality at the Source: Data Foundations	Your CMDB data quality isn't where it needs to be for downstream processes like HAM.

Apr 29, 2026	Close the Knowledge Gap: LEAP	One in three IT ops incidents never gets a root cause resolution. Runbooks go stale. See how LEAP uses ML clustering to turn closed incidents into Automation Opportunities Walk through the full workflow from scope to one-click playbooks Understand the four-step implementation framework
Apr 15, 2026	Deflect Calls, Reduce Cost: AI Skills for Requestors	Phone channel handles 40-70% of helpdesk contacts at roughly $20 per call.

Apr 1, 2026	Accelerate Agent Productivity: AI Skills for Fulfillers	Licensed for Now Assist but haven't activated the AI skills.

Mar 18, 2026	See Business Impact: Service Mapping	You have CIs but no business context — when something breaks, you can't trace the impact. Choose the right mapping method for each service Get maps operationalized at 80% rather than waiting for perfection See live demos of dynamic CI groups, tag-based mapping, and top-down maps
Mar 4, 2026	Build Trusted Data: CMDB Core	Your CMDB has duplicates, stale data, or gaps and your teams have gone back to spreadsheets. Scope to 3-5 principal CI classes that matter for outages and change planning Configure CI identifiers and data source precedence Use CMDB 360 and Health to validate data quality before you scale
Feb 18, 2026	Reduce Recovery Time: Major Incident Management	Major incidents still mean scrambling across Slack, email, and bridges with no single owner. Set up trigger rules that flag the right incidents Use the Major Incident Workspace as a single command center Configure post-incident reviews that turn outages into improvements
