AI Foundations

Based on the course content: Short Description (for course listings) Learn what AI actually is, how it works, and how to start using it in your daily life and work — no coding experience required. This course covers the most important AI tools, how to write prompts that get real results, and how to automate tasks that used to take hours. Whether you want to save time at your job, build something new, or just stop feeling left behind — this is your starting point. Long Description (for sales page) AI is changing everything — and most people are watching from the sidelines because they think it's too technical, too complicated, or "not for them." It's not. And this course proves it. AI Foundations is a complete beginner's course designed for people who have never written a line of code, never used an AI tool professionally, and just want to understand what's happening — and how to benefit from it. In 22 focused lessons, you'll go from "I've heard of ChatGPT" to confidently using AI tools every day, setting up automations that save you hours every week, and knowing exactly what to do next. Here's what you'll learn: You'll start with the fundamentals — what AI actually is (without the hype), how it differs from regular software, and why it's everywhere right now. You'll understand the difference between AI, automation, and simple automated tasks so you always know which tool to reach for. Then you'll go deeper into how AI works — what models are, how they're trained, what tokens and prompts are, and how AI tools are priced. This isn't theory for its own sake — understanding these things makes you dramatically better at using AI tools. From there, you'll explore the full toolkit: writing tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Jasper), image generators (Midjourney, DALL-E, Adobe Firefly), video generators (Runway, Sora, Kling), automation tools (Zapier, Make, N8N), and AI builders (Bolt.new, Lovable, Framer) that let you build real websites and apps just by describing what you want. You'll master prompting — the single most valuable skill for getting great results from any AI tool. You'll learn proven frameworks, see bad prompts vs. great prompts side by side, and build a personal prompt library you can use every day. Finally, you'll finish with a concrete action plan — a 7-day first steps guide, four clear paths forward (AI in your job, automation specialist, content creator, or business builder), and everything you need to go from learning to actually doing. This course is for you if: You've heard about AI but don't know where to start You want to save time and be more productive at work You want to build something — a website, a tool, a business — but don't know how to code You want to future-proof your career and skills You're tired of feeling left behind every time AI comes up in conversation No coding. No technical background. No experience required. Just bring your curiosity and 20–30 minutes per lesson. By the end, you won't just understand AI — you'll be using it.
