AI Fundamentals will boost your understanding of how AI works and equip you with practical skills to use AI effectively.

A new short course for staff will offer immediate actionable knowledge and skills for using AI in the workplace. 

AI Fundamentals features 8 to 10 hours of online, self-paced content and activities to develop your understanding of various AI tools and confidence to use them effectively as part of your role. It will be available for permanent and fixed-term staff from October. 

You will learn how to:

  • evaluate the ethical implications and privacy concerns related to AI use
  • employ critical thinking and decision-making skills to assess the suitability of AI in a range of contexts
  • strategically plan and incorporate AI technologies at a task level into organisational workflows and processes for various roles
  • gain proficiency in the design and formulation of prompts and inputs for AI systems.

How to register

All permanent and fixed-term staff will receive an invitation via email by the end of September to register for this optional course. Please put some time aside this year to complete the course to uplift your AI game and receive your Digital Badge.
