About the Course

Take the first step toward integrating AI into your business with AI Mastery for Profitability, a non-credit hybrid certificate program designed for managers and employees across HR, Marketing, Operations, and Finance. Whether you’re new to AI or looking for a hands-on refresher, this course offers personalized, practical learning that meets participants where they are.

Over 15 hours of engaging instruction—10 hours of live sessions and 5 hours of self-paced study—participants will explore foundational tools and AI strategies, working with their own business goals throughout the program. Rather than relying solely on case studies, attendees will bring real-world challenges to class, applying AI solutions directly to their work.

While this program complements our AI Boot Camp, attendance at the boot camp is not required. The certificate is structured to ensure both beginners and those with some AI experience gain practical value.


Why This Course Stands Out

Unlike many online programs, AI Mastery for Profitability emphasizes personalized feedback and hands-on instruction. Instructors provide real-time guidance throughout live sessions, helping participants apply AI tools to their specific business challenges. The hybrid format ensures that participants don’t just watch videos—they engage in meaningful discussions, receive support, and benefit from collaborative problem-solving.


Credentialing

This certificate of competency offers rigor and credibility, setting it apart from casual online learning. Earning this certificate will allow participants to demonstrate to employers and clients that they have gained practical experience, and are prepared to use AI to enhance productivity and profitability.  Participants will also receive a Credly badge to post on their social media networks.


Course Structure

  • 5 two-hour live sessions focusing on guided discussions, hands-on tool exploration, and problem-solving based on participants' unique goals.
  • 5 hours of online, self-paced study with videos, articles, and exercises tailored to support personalized learning.
     

Course Outcomes

Participants will:

  • Apply AI tools and techniques to their own business objectives during lessons and assignments.
  • Gain confidence by working on real problems rather than hypothetical scenarios.
  • Build practical workflows to streamline operations, enhance productivity, and improve decision-making.
  • Develop strategies to market their certificate and communicate new competencies to employers or clients.

 

Whether you are starting fresh or refining existing knowledge, AI Mastery for Profitability offers you a personalized, hands-on approach to building AI skills—and applying them to improve processes, foster growth, and drive profitability.
