About this course

Artificial intelligence is changing the way we work. Whether you're just getting started or already experimenting with AI tools, you'll need more than technical skills to use them well. You'll need the confidence to ask the right questions, evaluate AI outputs, understand the risks, and apply AI responsibly in your workplace.

Navigate AI Essentials: Responsible Use in Practice is a practical, evidence-based short course developed by the University of Tasmania's Information and Communications Technology area. Rather than focusing on a single AI tool, you'll build the knowledge, judgement and practical skills to confidently navigate today's rapidly evolving AI landscape.

Through practical activities, interactive learning, quizzes, and real-world workplace scenarios, you'll learn how to:

• understand what AI can and can't do
• use AI tools more effectively
• question and evaluate AI outputs critically
• protect yourself and your organisation through responsible AI use
• apply AI confidently in everyday professional situations

You'll also explore AI fundamentals, human-AI interaction, data literacy, ethical decision-making, governance, and practical strategies for improving productivity. By the end of the course, you'll know when to trust AI, when to challenge it, and how to keep people at the centre of decision-making.

Designed for professionals across all industries, this fully online, self-paced course makes it easy to build future-ready AI capability around your work and life. No technical background is required, just curiosity and a willingness to learn.
