Speed ​​and Accuracy: What Order and Results?
27th May, 2026 at 13:00 – 14:00 CET. Webinar
In the new millennium, there’s an increasing tendency to move “fast” without much concern for precision and accuracy when estimating. “Speed” and “precision” can be good allies, but only if performed in the correct order.Â
The belief that speed implies accuracy is a complex psychological phenomenon, often traced back to cognitive biases and the brain’s information processing mechanisms. This attitude can lead to a distorted perception of one’s own abilities and excessive confidence in one’s decisions, known as  overconfidence .

Artificial Empathy: How We’ll Fall in Love with Machines and Why They Won’t Love Us Back
30th June, 2026 at 13:00 – 14:00 CEST. Webinar
Artificial intelligence is evolving beyond the ability to understand and generate content: it can now simulate sophisticated forms of empathy. What happens when a machine influences our decisions not through logic, but through emotional signals?
Artificial empathy is a new frontier in human-machine interaction. Digital systems interpret our signals and respond in ways that can modify our behavior. When and how can a machine persuade us?
This webinar explores the concept of artificial empathy, analyzing its mechanisms, cognitive impacts, and ethical implications. It presents experimental results on how different forms of empathic expression influence people’s choices.
The webinar is valid for 1 PDU, 1 CPD and for one training credit for the CEPAS SCH174 certification.

Quantum is in the future of measurement
9th July, 2026 at 13:00 – 14:00 CEST. Webinar
Once upon a time, classical physics explained day-to-day phenomena, while quantum physics was reserved for scientific theories. Today, phone calls, advanced treatments and web browsing is made possible using these theories, particularly those of the “first quantum revolution.”
We have now entered a new phase where quantum computing and quantum communication will have significant impact in the future. This is due to the new ability to manipulate and measure subatomic systems whose limitations we had only studied in textbooks, and whose rules and potential we now understand. A new branch of computer science with other capabilities, other logics, and other rules has evolved. The applications of these new technologies will revolutionize everyone’s lives.
Attend the webinar and earn 1 PDU, 1 CPD, and one training credit for the CEPAS SCH174 certification.
