Who it suits

This course is for people who are comfortable using a computer and want to understand how to build with AI. You don't need coding experience, but you do need time to practise.

If you already have a complex project that needs individual debugging, speak to us before choosing this course.

What you'll learn

Week 1: Plan a small app

Choose a clear purpose, decide what the first version needs and write a brief the AI tool can follow.

Week 2: Build and review

Create the first version, understand its main parts and practise making controlled changes.

Week 3: Add useful behaviour

Work through the starter project's forms and simple data. Learn how to test common actions and investigate errors.

Week 4: Prepare the next version

Review the prototype, work through a publishing checklist and decide what to improve next. Discuss when a project needs specialist help before real users rely on it.

What is included

  • Eight hours of live group teaching.
  • A shared starter project and weekly exercises.
  • Downloadable guides, briefs and checklists to keep.
  • Questions during each live session.
  • One brief review of a submitted course exercise.

Plan for around two to three hours of independent practice each week. The live hours and practice time are separate.

What you can expect

The aim is a working learning prototype and an understanding of how to improve it. Progress depends on completing the exercises and keeping the project within the course scope.

The fee covers teaching and the listed support. It does not include a completed business application, private development work or ongoing technical support.

Before you book

We'll confirm the dates, joining requirements and any separate software costs. Places are offered when the group can run with at least eight learners.
