- The presentation was great and easy to follow. Learning Power Query during the interactive segment was very informative.

- Was great!  Very engaging and kept us entertained the entire time!

- She made it interesting and funny. Participants were very engaged.

- Learned a lot about power query and AI. I wish I had learned about the power query earlier it would have been so useful in my prior role.

- I think you should do the practical part of the AI presentation for the international IIA conference. I appreciated the hands on data analytics portion of the presentation, and the practical use of AI for preparing a workplace.   Overall, great presentation.

- She did wonderfully and was very entertaining!

- Great examples! Hands on practice is really helpful.

- I enjoyed this introduction to AI. I found it comprehensive and informative. The information presented helped me understand what AI actually is, how it functions, and how it can be used in auditing.

- It was a great overview of AI. Didn't realize all the different parts of where it is in the world. Look forward to continuing to learn about AI in future sessions.

- Thank you for providing background knowledge on AI!! I agree most trainings just jump right in and expect everyone to know the background information.

- I really liked the info on the types of AI and the difference. That is something I had not known before! I also think you explained a very technical topic in easy to understand terms.

- Very interesting and kept my attention.

- I have seen a few other AI 101s, and I really liked yours the best from an auditor's perspective. You did a great job of putting a technical topic in terms a non-technical person can understand, and the examples you provided really supported the explanations.

- You were wonderful!!  I have done that process so many times [that] training on it is normally boring, but your presentation kept my attention the whole way through.  I so hope you offer other training subjects so our chapter can bring you back.  Would be great to have you here live/in person because it would be even more lively and interactive.

- Very informative with more detailed examples. Not just repeated info at a high level like other webinars on this topic.

- Lots of great info and use cases for all stages of audit!

- The event was well put together and provides great insight to data analytics.

- Very fun and informative!

- Great presentation and the most mindful discussion I’ve ever heard in this kind of environment.

- Great presentation! Thanks for sharing your personal story, especially about your hearing loss. I personally 2 people with implants. I’ll share your suggestions  others so we can all be more informed. Thanks again!

- Enjoyed the presentation very much.

- I’m new to my leadership role, and this presentation made me really thoughtful about how I’ll present myself and engage my staff moving forward.

- I loved the inclusion of personal stories and relatable situations. The hearing loss is a great lens that people can relate to and learn from (hopefully they'll start yelling less in public).

- This is the best session of the conference! Thank you!!

- Both Jo and Elizabeth came across as very engaged, knowledgeable and inspiring. I liked the ”fireside-like” setting - it felt more like a conversation than a lecture, in a positive way. I suggest the IIA engage them in future conferences and online webinars.

- A longer session would be very beneficial! Both presenters had so much knowledge that it felt like a disservice to limit it to an hour.

- Awesome session. Wish we had more time for Q+A! Great content and appreciate the out of the box approach and methodology.

- Outstanding presentation! Important and practical advice that is very actionable.

- The personal story really helped relate to the topic. Thank you for sharing and for the new perspective.

- I really appreciate the context and testimonials.  One of my mgrs is partially impaired and I have been fearful of having the discussion openly but as we were listening we were discussing it.  Thank you!

- Your presentation has given me the courage to admit I have a hearing loss problem and that because of it my job has become more difficult.  Thank you!

- I thought it was clever way to tie disabilities with ethics.
