When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?

When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools can be used in a business setting to generate text that is unique, thorough, and highly effective at communication. In response to your written prompt describing what you require, these tools can quickly summarize information, generate ideas, solve problems, participate in conversations, and engage in a wide range of other purposes, enabling you to save time and money designing and developing text-based content. In order to achieve these goals, you must learn how to tell AI tools what you want in the right ways through prompt engineering.

Module details

Recent innovations in artificial intelligence have resulted in a variety of tools that can generate text based on some input that you provide. Whether you're an accomplished writer, marketing professional, or anyone else who uses the written word in their day-to-day work, you may find that these tools can generate effective ideas, impart key knowledge, or inject more style and creativity into your communication.
