Course Description

Artificial Intelligence isn’t just for tech experts anymore — it’s becoming a part of everyone’s workday. Whether you’re writing emails, organizing data, creating content, or managing projects, AI tools are transforming how we work, communicate, and think. The question isn’t if you’ll use AI — it’s how well you’ll use it.

“AI Literacy for All Employees” is your practical, non-technical introduction to understanding and using AI with confidence. In just one hour, you’ll learn what AI really is, how it works, and—most importantly—how to make it work for you.

This course is designed for professionals in any industry who want to stay ahead of the curve. You’ll start by breaking down the fundamentals: what AI is, what it isn’t, and how large language models like ChatGPT actually think. You’ll get a simple, clear look at the technology behind the buzzwords—no coding or advanced math required.

From there, you’ll explore real-world applications that can save time, boost creativity, and streamline your workflow. You’ll discover how to write effective prompts, use context strategically, and collaborate with AI tools to improve the quality and efficiency of your work. Whether it’s writing reports, generating ideas, or organizing information, you’ll learn techniques you can apply immediately to your role.

The course also dives into AI ethics and responsible use—an essential skill for the modern workplace. You’ll learn how to use AI thoughtfully and transparently, recognizing both its capabilities and its limitations. By understanding where AI can help and where human judgment is still essential, you’ll be able to work smarter, not just faster.

Throughout the course, you’ll see practical examples in action, including how AI can help:

  • Turn raw feedback into actionable plans.

  • Sort projects and team members based on skills.

  • Improve communication and planning.

  • Build repeatable workflows that integrate AI seamlessly into your daily tasks.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:
- Understand the core concepts and technology behind AI in plain language.
- Confidently use AI tools to improve your productivity and creativity.
- Write better prompts that get meaningful, useful results.
- Apply ethical and responsible AI practices in your work.
- Develop your own AI-powered workflow that fits your role and goals.

Whether you’re an employee looking to stay competitive, a manager guiding your team through change, or simply curious about how AI fits into your professional life—this course will help you build AI confidence, literacy, and adaptability.

You don’t need a technical background—just curiosity, openness, and a willingness to explore new tools that can make your work easier and more impactful.

Let’s make AI your next professional advantage.

Instructor Details

Kurt Anderson

I am a self-taught multi-media designer and computer scientist who has helped bring the creative vision of clients all around the world to life. Having 12+ years of experience in the Adobe Production Suite has given me a strong tool-set to create anything from videos to websites. Along with this, having a degree in Computer Science has given me a strong analytical mind for dealing with complex problems. Through these two disciplines I create a unique blend of efficiency and creativity. I believe anyone can become a designer or programmer. All it takes is practice. 

I am also a world traveler and have lived in and learned from many different countries. During a 6 month stay in Japan, I became fascinated with their people's drive and craftsmanship. I try to incorporate that same level of energy, passion and detail-oriented work as much as possible in to my own life.

Being self-taught in many of my endeavors, I know how important it is to have high quality content. I learned most of my Adobe skills through countless hours of YouTube videos by the greats like FreddieW and Andrew Kramer. I decided to start giving back to the community that helped me so much, and created my YouTube Channel, AdobeMasters. Through this YouTube channel, I am able to create tutorials for anyone who wants to teach themselves these amazing products, just like I wanted to so many years ago.

It is so basic, can use more professional terms, teach something new to do it by ourself. It is like theoretical without any labs

By Rebecca Childers on 9/2/2026

I think this was a great match - I know some of what AI can do to help me in my work life, and I feel I was ready for this next step. It was an easy transition from using AI to help me compose an email to making it look a little more professional to using it in other ways to help make my workflow a little smoother.

By Marianne Loomis on 9/1/2026

I am lightly familiar with the concept of AI as a tool, but the explanations of what's under the hood are helpful in understanding how I, as the user, provide guidance through context to produce better output.

By Mbuso Mhlongo on 8/31/2026

This was a very good eye opener, really great to learn more about the correct ways of using AI and the different types of AI available out there

By Ayushmaan Sharma on 8/25/2026

I am computer science student, and I appreciate for what it provides, many people see's AI as something like a being which can perform humanly task better than humans which is wrong, we humans created this and this help us to easy our tasks not replace the human, and all of this happen because some non-tech people just made a hype for this.

By Kiia Kolari on 8/17/2026

I liked this course because it is clear, short enough and inspirational. I recommend anyone taking this course to do the two assignments and focus on them, don't just do them in hassle but use them as a great learning opportunity - it is worth it!

By Mohit Anil Nankani on 6/19/2026

This was a fruitful and very great learning program for a person like me who have not used AI much but will incorporate it into my daily routine

By Vicky Tan on 6/18/2026

He's very easy to understand, really appreciate the basic level at which he's speaking to us. Thanks for breaking down the terms!

By Tina Strickland on 6/12/2026

This was a very good match. It provided me with a very effective agenda for weekly meetings.

By Mari Hobson on 5/8/2026

Really enjoyed this course. Very easy to understand, engaging facilitator, assignments were really useful. I have a basic AI usage understanding and use it frequently in my daily life, but this course provided insight and advice that was really helpful to level up even just that little bit more. I look forward to any additional courses on AI Kurt puts out.
