About Course

What does an employer mean when a job advert asks for “generative AI skills”? Beyond knowing how to open a chatbot, it means understanding how to use the technology purposefully, assess its output and explain your own contribution.

Generative AI Skills for Work and Job Applications connects everyday workplace practice with the challenge of demonstrating competence to employers. It explores how to move from experimenting with AI to using it through a clear, considered process: defining the task, providing suitable information, reviewing the response and producing work you can stand behind.

The course also examines how to translate that experience into credible evidence. Rather than relying on broad claims about AI proficiency, learners develop examples that show what they did, what they checked and where their judgement mattered.

Throughout, generative AI is presented as a tool whose value depends on how it is used. The emphasis is on building practical confidence while remaining honest about capabilities, attentive to context and accountable for the final result.
