AI Skills for Everyday Productivity

What you'll learn

This is a friendly, practical course for anyone who wants to feel confident using AI in everyday life and work — no technical background required. You'll meet ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and the leading image and video tools, and you'll learn the small set of habits that separates people who get great results from AI from those who don't.

You will not write code. You will write prompts, compare outputs, learn how to fact-check, draft emails and resumes, brainstorm ideas, build study systems, plan projects, generate images and videos, and stitch simple AI tools into real workflows that save you hours every week.
