Course OVERVIEW

Description

CPE Credits: 4.5 Field of Study: Specialized Knowledge
Delivery Method: QAS Self Study

With the rise of AI, leaders and CEOs are rushing to adopt tools like ChatGPT to boost work productivity in their organizations. Managers are under pressure to become experts in ChatGPT so they can support company goals and guide their teams. Employees, on the other hand, are being told to adapt to AI, often without clear guidance on why or how to do that.

This can lead to confusion and serious ethical problems across the entire workplace. Private data leaks, regulatory fines, reputational damage, costly mistakes, and employee frustration are some of the most common ones.

This course offers an easy-to-follow guide to adopting and using AI safely at work. Directly within ChatGPT, you’ll explore what can go wrong, how to avoid it, and how to use the tool without getting into trouble. You’ll learn to protect your company’s data, recognize when ChatGPT makes mistakes, and work with AI most effectively. 

Designed for leaders, managers, and employees, the course helps everyone get on the same page to ensure responsible AI integration. You’ll see what each role needs to know and why it’s essential to understand each other’s perspective.

Gain the confidence to use ChatGPT effectively and responsibly at work.
