What you’ll learn

  • Six modules move from GenAI/tool selection and prompt writing to communications, information analysis/summaries and meeting productivity
  • Then hands-on tasks with Word-style documents, presentations/images/presenter notes and spreadsheets across Microsoft 365 desktop apps, Google Docs/Slides/Sheets and LibreOffice examples.
  • Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Claude, and explicitly says learners may use the AI tools available to them
  • It does not require one particular assistant.

What does the learning look like?

  • The course says to perform guided step-by-step hands-on activities on the learner's own computer.
  • Each of the first five modules lists multiple readings/guidelines/activities
  • The final module lists one course assessment.
  • Activities span everyday communication, summarizing information, meeting productivity, revising text, generating document/presentation images, presenter notes and spreadsheet problem-solving.
