AI Fundamentals

This programme gives participants a clear, practical understanding of artificial intelligence — what it is, how it works, and where it is already being used in business. No technical background is needed. The focus is on building genuine confidence with AI concepts so that participants can engage meaningfully in AI-related decisions at work.
