Who it is for and what you take away

Who it is for

Working professionals in any field who are beginning to use AI tools, and staff in organisations that are starting to deploy them.

What you take away

On completing the programme you can describe what current AI tools do and do not do; use the common assistants for ordinary professional tasks; write prompts that produce checkable output; evaluate that output rather than trusting it; recognise the ethical and legal risks of using it at work; and work with it in Albanian.

  • A practical task at the end of every course, which you do yourself and keep as evidence of your work.
  • Your completion of each course, recorded in your account on the learning platform.
