Welcome to the course
This course considers the skills and strategies needed to use Generative AI (GenAI) in the real world, so that individuals and businesses have greater confidence in its use.
It looks at two key aspects of using Generative AI – prompting, to ensure we get what we want from the AI, and reviewing the output, to check that what the AI gave us is safe to use.
The course explores when it might be appropriate to use a GenAI tool, how to ask questions effectively to get the best possible output (also called prompting), and the necessity of evaluating the information it provides.
This course assumes you understand how GenAI and LLMs work and the concerns around using them for legal advice and information: if you are not sure about this, we recommend you complete Course 1: Understanding Generative AI first.
This is a self-paced course of around 180 minutes including a short quiz.
A digital badge and a course certificate are awarded upon completion. To receive these, you must complete all sections of the course and pass the course quiz.
