Advanced Certificate in Generative Artificial Intelligence Apps Design and Prompt Engineering

Since the advent of ChatGPT, Generative AI has emerged as a mainstream tool in the corporate world, transforming how organizations enhance productivity and learning, and in many cases, becoming a game changer. However, merely using ChatGPT or other pre-trained models is no longer sufficient as organizations shift from passive users to active creators and deployers of the technology. Moreover, effective governance and management of Generative AI are essential to ensure its responsible use.

This Advanced Certificate is tailored for non-technical professionals, particularly those from SMEs, who have domain expertise but lack programming skills. It is designed for individuals interested in using prompt engineering techniques to develop Generative AI tools and chatbots for specific use cases, with the ability to deploy these applications either internally or to clients. 

Each module offers frameworks and guidance for responsible AI practices, grounded in the latest ISO standards and technical reviews. This includes ISO 5338/9, which outlines AI system life cycle processes and guidance for AI applications, and ISO 8183, which identifies the stages and corresponding actions for data processing throughout the AI system life cycle.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

  • How to leverage Large Language Models (LLMs), and Retrieval Augment Generation (RAG) to create your own AI apps
  • How to implement Generative AI within your organisation or department with minimal technical expertise
  • Use cases for deploying Generative AI in:
    1. Human Resources
    2. Sales / Customer Service
    3. Learning & Development
    4. Legal & Compliance
    5. Marketing & Communication
  • App design and responsible AI practices for each of the above scenarios, guided by the latest ISO standards and technical reviews


By the end of this 12-day program, you will be able to create, customize, and deploy your own Generative AI tools and chatbots to augment your role and responsibilities. You will also learn how to use general-purpose language models to enhance productivity, learning, and competitiveness.
