About this course
Practical, responsible AI use: what these tools actually are and are not, how to write prompts that produce useful output, how to use AI for research and drafting, and how to keep it honest — including the limits, the errors and the things you must never paste into one.
What you will be able to do
- Explain what large language models can and cannot reliably do
- Write prompts that produce usable drafts, summaries and structures
- Use AI for research while verifying claims independently
- Spot hallucinations and bias in generated output
- Apply a personal policy on data you never share with AI tools
The deliverable
Certificate requirement
An AI-assisted workflow you actually use
A documented workflow for one of your real recurring tasks — with the prompts you use, the verification steps and the parts you deliberately keep manual.
How the course is assessed
Level 1
Know
You can explain the concept, name the tools involved and recognise the difference between doing it well and doing it carelessly.
Level 2
Do
You can perform the task independently, without the instructor repeating the steps, and fix the obvious problems when they appear.
Level 3
Create
You can use the skill to produce something a real person would pay for — a document, a design, a website, a report, a repaired machine.

AI Productivity — questions
The things prospective students actually ask before enrolling.
Do I need to pay for an AI subscription?+
No. The course is taught entirely on free tiers, which are capable enough for everything we cover. We explain what the paid tiers add so you can decide later whether your own work justifies the cost.
Will this teach me to cheat on assignments?+
No. Session four covers academic and workplace honesty explicitly, including where AI assistance must be declared. Using AI to work faster and think clearer is a skill; submitting generated work as your own is a career risk.
