General Information

The course combines readings, short instructional videos, and Quick AI Checks throughout each module. The learning sequence gradually progresses from fundamental AI concepts and mathematical foundations to machine learning, statistical methods, real-world applications, and AI ethics.

Each Quick AI Check helps learners review key concepts, assess their understanding, and consolidate their knowledge before moving to the next topic.

The course concludes with a Final AI Challenge, where learners connect concepts from different modules, apply their knowledge to AI-related problems, analyse information and results, and demonstrate independent and critical thinking.

Recommended pace: 2–4 hours per week.

Learners can complete the course at their own pace.
