​Understand AI. Use It Confidently. Stay Ahead.

​

Artificial Intelligence is no longer optional — it’s already shaping how we work, decide, and compete. But between hype, fear, and misinformation, many professionals are left unsure where to start or how to use AI responsibly.

​

Our AI Upskilling Programme is designed to cut through the noise and give you clarity, confidence, and practical skills — no technical background required.

​

This programme consists of two focused, complementary courses:

• an Introductory Foundations course to understand AI properly

• a hands-on Practical course to apply AI safely and effectively

​

You can attend either course individually or combine both for the complete AI learning experience.

​

 

Course 1: AI Foundations, Ethics & the Regulatory Landscape

​

Build a Clear, Confident Understanding of AI

​

(Introduction / Theory)

​

This course strips away the jargon and demystifies Artificial Intelligence. You’ll gain a clear, realistic understanding of how AI works, what it can (and cannot) do, and the responsibilities that come with using it.

​

Perfect for professionals who want to:

​

• understand AI without becoming technical

• make informed decisions rather than relying on hype

• stay compliant and future-ready

 

​

What you’ll learn

​​

• What AI really is (and isn’t)
  Understand AI as a machine-based system driven by data, algorithms, and statistics — including the difference between traditional AI and Generative AI (GenAI).​

• Myths vs reality
  Why AI isn’t conscious, why it doesn’t “think,” and why AI is now accessible to organisations of all sizes.​

• Why data matters
  Learn how data trains AI models and why data quality directly affects outcomes.​

• How AI learns and produces results
  A simple explanation of AI models, training, and outputs.​

• AI and the law: The EU AI Act
  A clear overview of the EU’s risk-based framework, from minimal to unacceptable risk.​

• Opportunities and risks
  Boosting productivity through automation — while understanding risks like hallucinations and bias.​

• The future of work
  Why human skills such as judgment, empathy, and critical thinking are becoming more valuable, not less.

Course 2: AI in Action – Literacy, Evaluation & Practical Tooling

​

Use AI Safely, Critically, and Effectively

​

(Practical / Application)

​

This interactive, hands-on course is designed for participants ready to use AI — not just talk about it. It builds real-world skills you can apply immediately at work or in daily life.

​

Ideal for anyone who wants to:​

​

  A hands-on analysis of real-world bias in recruitment, medical reporting, and news generation. Participants will engage in fact-checking exercises to identify "source hallucinations".

• The Human-in-the-Loop Case Study
