Introduction to AI

We’re committed to building sought-after critical AI skills and preparing our learners for the new digital economy, so all our apprentices are enrolled on our Introduction to AI course.

The most notable barrier for businesses looking to introduce AI into daily operations is a lack of internal AI skills, with a quarter of organisations reporting that they struggle to find employees with the necessary skills to implement and manage AI technologies.

Our interactive 3-part course provides our learners with a comprehensive overview of AI; understanding its origins, categories, and capabilities. Learners will understand use cases for AI models, and be able to successfully implement appropriate models into their role while following relevant ethical regulations.
