Feedback on this AI Course
BT: The course was excellent – well-structured, insightful, and engaging throughout. Highly recommend!
KG: I already use Chat GPT, however, there was so much that I was not aware of … I will now expand my use of AI as a result … I am definitely more confident about using AI and stretching myself with its use.
VR: I love the inclusion of activities [… and] the copyright and legal section as this isn’t something you’d pick up by just having a go. I feel prepared to extend my usage of AI and save time in doing so.
