Explain AI in plain language
Distinguish predictive AI, generative AI, ordinary automation, and the role of machine learning.
BEGINNER WORKPLACE AI LITERACY
Give employees a practical starting point: what artificial intelligence is, where they encounter it, what familiar tools and AI agents can do, where the technology can fail, and how people remain accountable for workplace use.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
No technical background is required. Employees learn durable concepts and practice ordinary workplace decisions without being asked to become data scientists, lawyers, or security specialists.
Distinguish predictive AI, generative AI, ordinary automation, and the role of machine learning.
Recognize chat assistants, embedded copilots, AI-enabled applications, model platforms, APIs, and agents.
Identify useful tasks while remembering that fluent output does not guarantee truth, currency, fairness, privacy, or permission.
Choose approved tools, minimize data, prompt with boundaries, verify important output, limit agency, and retain human responsibility.
COURSE CURRICULUM
AI as a family of technologies; predictive AI, generative AI, machine learning, automation, and the limits of human-like language.
General assistants, workplace copilots, embedded application features, commercial and open model families, cloud services, and APIs.
Drafting, summarizing, translating, extracting, classifying, generating media and code, identifying patterns, and the need for qualified review.
How conversational answers differ from in-application assistance and systems that plan steps, use tools, access information, and take actions.
Approved tools, sensitive information, bounded prompting, verification, bias, intellectual property, prompt injection, impersonation, and reporting.
Twelve server-selected questions covering the full baseline, followed by a named, versioned certificate for passing organization-assigned learners.
