Applied AI Fundamentals
28 September, 2026 – Amsterdam, The Netherlands
AI is rapidly changing how we work, but using it effectively requires more than knowing how to use ChatGPT. This training provides a practical, non-technical introduction to today’s AI landscape, from traditional machine learning and Generative AI to emerging AI agents.
Through hands-on exercises, you will learn how to use AI tools effectively, improve your prompts, assess risks and limitations, and identify valuable opportunities to apply AI in your own work.
