This introductory programme is designed for professionals who are curious about AI but feel unsure where to start. With no technical background required, it offers a safe and supportive environment to explore what AI is, how it works, and how it’s already shaping the modern workplace. Whether you’re in operations, marketing, HR, or any other field, the course will help demystify the jargon and give you the confidence to begin applying AI to everyday tasks.

Through four practical, tutor-led sessions, participants will gain hands-on experience with accessible AI tools, learn how to write effective prompts, and explore ways AI can improve productivity, communication, and decision-making. The programme also provides essential guidance on using AI ethically and safely, with a focus on data privacy, responsible adoption, and avoiding common pitfalls.

By the end of the course, you’ll be able to explain AI confidently, identify relevant use cases in your role, and take your first practical steps toward adopting AI – no coding required. This is not about turning you into a developer; it’s about empowering you to become an informed and capable user of one of today’s most important technologies.
