AI courses for people who don't write code

Learn what AI can be trusted with at work, and what you answer for.

Short lessons that check you as you go, and work you can put your name on at the end rather than a score. Foundation of AI ends with a findings note on AI tested against your own work, a library of standing briefs, and a readiness brief.

Foundation of AI · Lesson 15.1

Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) is every AI system that exists today. It does one thing - or a cluster of related things - extremely well, and nothing else.

Your turn

A startup pitches your CEO on their product, claiming it uses "general AI" to handle any business task - from writing code to managing finances to designing marketing campaigns. They say their system truly understands what it is doing, unlike other AI tools.

Based on what you have learned, what is the most accurate way to evaluate this claim?

That is one check, from one lesson.Read the whole lesson, free, no account
What you'll be able to do

What changes at work once you have done this.

Every line below comes out of work you do in the course.

Foundation of AIStart here

Test AI on one job you do yourself, against a standard you set before seeing any output, and write a findings note your team lead can act on.

Turn a vague prompt into one that works, then generalise it into a standing brief you install where your team can run it.

Decide, per task, how much human review an AI answer needs, and check the answer instead of trusting it.

Know what is safe to paste into an AI tool, what your company's plan changes, and what a DPA does and does not buy you.

Ask an AI vendor the security questions that matter, and know prompt injection and data leakage well enough to approve or block a tool.

AI Agents for Professionals

Build a working AI agent that uses several tools in sequence, with no code, and run it on a real process from your own team.

Sit through a vendor's agent demo and ask the questions that expose a weak one, then hold their claim to a written test plan.

Read an AI contract and find the clauses that decide who owns your data, what happens on a silent model swap, and how you get out.

Write the business case: a corrected cost baseline, three scenarios instead of one forecast, and a build-or-buy call you can defend to a CFO.

Write a governance framework that names who monitors what, at what threshold, and who can stop the process without asking permission.

The hands-on builds in AI Agents for Professionals are done in Relevance AI, MindStudio, Make, Zapier and Claude Projects, and every one of them has a route through it that costs nothing. The one charge you might meet is a few cents of AI usage, and only if the automation build asks for a key of your own. Foundation of AI sets no build: its projects are written in the course itself, and need nothing beyond the free AI assistant you set up in the first lesson.

Keep it. One payment. No subscription, no renewal, and no expiry on access.

Prove it to someone else. A certificate per course, verifiable at a public URL by anyone you send it to, with no account needed at their end.

Written for here. Governance and privacy are framed against the Privacy Act and the Australian Privacy Principles. EU and US rules are taught as landscape, not as compliance cover.

I have been writing software since 2008, and I have spent the past year building with AI agents. These are the courses I wanted when I started: the working knowledge without the hype, for people whose job is to make good calls about AI rather than to write it.

Questions

Before you spend anything.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. No course here asks you to write a line of it. The hands-on builds in AI Agents for Professionals are done in Relevance AI, MindStudio, Make, Zapier, and Claude Project, and every one of them has a path that works on a free tier.

How long will it take?

Foundation of AI is 22 lessons, about 12 hours of them, plus a 45 to 110 minute project at the end of each module. AI Agents for Professionals is 27 lessons, about 13 hours of them, plus a 120 to 145 minute project at the end of each module, and 5 builds of 120 to 255 minutes each. Those hours are the reading and the exercises at a steady pace. Stopping to try each idea on your own work, which is the point of it, adds to them. There is no schedule and no expiry, so you can go at whatever pace your week allows.

What do I walk out with?

Work rather than a score. From Foundation of AI: a findings note on AI tested against a job you do yourself, a library of standing briefs a colleague can run without asking you, and a readiness brief addressed to your manager. From AI Agents for Professionals: no-code agents and workflows you built and tested yourself, a defensible business case, with the cost baseline corrected, and a governance framework and an incident runbook.

What if it turns out not to be for me?

A 14-day refund. You do not have to justify it, and it does not depend on how much you finished.

Which one should I start with?

Foundation of AI. It is the shared starting point, and everything else assumes what it teaches.

Will I have to pay for AI tools on top?

Almost never. Every hands-on build in AI Agents for Professionals has a route through it that costs nothing, in Relevance AI, MindStudio, Make, Zapier, and Claude Project. Where a build also names a paid option - a paid chat subscription, Claude Cowork, a paid automation plan - it is an alternative, never the only way through. The one charge you might meet is a few cents of AI usage, and only if the automation build asks for a key of your own. Foundation of AI sets no build at all, and needs nothing beyond the free AI assistant you set up in its first lesson.

Is there a certificate?

One per course. It carries a public verification URL, so anyone you send it to can confirm it without creating an account.

Is this written for Australian rules?

Yes. The governance and privacy material is framed against the Privacy Act and the Australian Privacy Principles, and prices are in Australian dollars. The EU AI Act and GDPR are taught as landscape so you can recognise them, not as compliance cover.
