Duration
Approx 12 weeks3 hrs per week
Enhance your generative AI workflow automation expertise
Generative AI is changing how organisations handle information, automate processes, and improve everyday workflows.
This four-course ExpertTrack takes you from the foundations of generative AI and prompt engineering to advanced workflows, autonomous agents, and enterprise-scale automation.
You’ll begin by exploring how language models work and how to create effective prompts for practical business tasks.
From there, you’ll discover how generative AI can sit within automated workflows, connecting inputs, actions, data, and workplace systems.
Build intelligent multi-step AI workflows
Progress to more sophisticated automation using conditional logic, data transformation, structured extraction, validation, and automated output generation.
You’ll learn how to design AI workflows that handle information across connected systems and respond intelligently to different inputs
Design agentic AI systems
Move beyond fixed workflows to agentic AI.
Explore tool use, memory, task decomposition, and single- and multi-agent architectures, developing systems that can work towards complex goals and coordinate actions with less manual intervention.
Scale AI automation responsibly
Finally, explore how AI automation is governed and deployed across organisations. You’ll examine enterprise architecture, API integration, security, responsible AI, regulatory compliance, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
By completing this ExpertTrack, you’ll build practical expertise across the AI automation lifecycle, preparing you to contribute to automation, AI solutions, and digital transformation projects.
