JUST LAUNCHED! Our VLE hosts AICC's digital training programmes, designed to help individuals and organisations build practical AI capability.
This new digital learning platform will initially include three courses - Fundamentals of AI, Prompt to Prototype and Data Readiness for AI.
These courses are designed to support a broad audience, from individuals exploring AI for the first time, to professionals seeking to enhance their digital skills and organisations preparing for adoption, with a focus on practical application rather than theory alone.
Because places are limited, learners will be selected through a simple application process to ensure each cohort gets the support and attention they need.
This is just the start. Over the coming months, we’ll be launching additional online courses that support learners at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels.
We’ve curated a selection of high-quality external courses, certifications and specialist programmes from trusted global providers
With support from the Department for the Economy, the AICC provides a limited number of funded scholarships for AI related courses, empowering professionals in NI with essential skills for success.
These practical, hands-on workshops equip SMEs to unlock AI’s potential within their business and begin their responsible AI adoption journey with confidence
