Course Overview

AI has applications across every sector, including healthcare, automotive, finance, advertising, government and military. In financial services for example, AI is used to organise operations, invest in stocks, monitor behavioural patterns to reduce fraud and crime, and increase overall efficiency. To thrive in this evolving global economy, it is vital that you and your organisation develop the skills needed to exploit AI technology. 

In its “Future of Jobs Report 2020,” the World Economic Forum estimates that 85 million jobs will be displaced while 97 million new jobs will be created across 26 countries by 2025. AI will automate many repetitive tasks such as data entry and assembly line manufacturing.
