Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about the program.

What tools do I need to get access to?

This course does not require access to a specific tool, as we focus on foundational principles that apply across different AI products. Whether you have access to ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Copilot or any other tool, you'll be able to follow the program without any problem. If you have problems accessing all of these, feel free to reach out and we can give you access to a custom, safe environment to experiment with AI technology.

Can my company pay for this?

Of course! Companies know that they will be more competitive if their employees understand AI, so chances are they will help you out even if there isn’t a formal training budget allocated. For more information, please see this page.

Do I need to know how to code?

Absolutely not. AI is a tool and, like all tools, you can either decide to use it yourself or cooperate with someone who uses it. What matter is that you comprehend what you can achieve with it and what you need to make it work.

What if I can’t apply these concepts to my job?

You probably have heard the phrase “Data is the new gold”. Most companies already have data, they just don’t know how to put them to good use. Our case studies will help you realize how AI can apply to different scenarios.

Will I get a certificate?

You’ll get a certificate from AI Academy that you can display on your LinkedIn profile and CV.

How long do I have access?

You’ll get lifetime access to video lessons.

Do you have a refund policy?
