Testimonials

I recently took the AI Prompt Engineering course at the Swiss Cyber Institute and found it useful. The mix of theory and practical exercises helped to learn and apply new skills. The program materials are clear, supportive, and are available during the course. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get better at working with AI.

Former students

Insightful and informative. With the knowledge about artificial intelligence, I can now work better and understand the processes better so that I can write better prompts in the future.

Marcel Krättli

Former student

If you’ve never had any touchpoints with AI, this course is for you. Even if you no longer consider yourself a beginner, you’ll appreciate the comprehensive outlook of the course. Our lecturers are a wealth of knowledge and will provide you with extensive insights and up-to-date information on what’s happening in this part of the digital universe. (Big thanks to Ayaz and Mirka!)

Who is this training for?

Your next step starts here

AI is reshaping every profession. This training is for professionals who want to understand it, use it confidently, and stay ahead. Whether you are deepening your expertise, exploring a career change, or ready to make AI work for you, this is where you start.

No prior technical knowledge required.

What you need to get started

Open to all professionals regardless of technical background. A computer and stable internet connection are all you need.

AI foundations and real-world applications

You will stop guessing what AI actually is and start seeing exactly how it works and where it is already changing the industries and roles around you. From understanding the difference between narrow and general AI to recognising how organizations are using it right now, you will leave this block with a clear mental model of the technology shaping our world.

Key technologies (algorithms and models)

You will go inside the systems that make AI work and start connecting what you see to the world around you. From machine learning and deep learning to neural networks and natural language processing, you will build a working understanding of the technologies that power the tools and products you already use every day.

Data and agent essentials

This block gives you the practical literacy to understand how data is collected, cleaned, and prepared. You will also take your first steps into AI agents systems that go beyond single prompts to plan, use tools, and complete multi-step tasks autonomously. By the end, you will have the foundation to engage with both the data and agentic sides of modern AI.

Building AI models

You will follow the model-building journey from the inside, seeing exactly how algorithms are selected, trained, and tested against real data. By the end of this block, you will understand what makes a model reliable, how performance is measured, and what happens when a system needs to improve.

Reviewing AI tools

You will move from understanding to doing, exploring widely used AI platforms and tools in practical, applied contexts. This block helps you develop the judgment to evaluate tools for a given situation and the confidence to use them in your own professional environment.

AI ethics, governance, and future trends

The most important conversations about AI are not technical. They are human. This block equips you to engage critically with the ethical and societal implications of AI, understand the governance frameworks shaping it globally, and think clearly about where it is heading next.

What you will learn

Six blocks. Real skills. Immediately applicable.

How you will learn

Our programs are built on learning science, not convention. Designed around how adults actually learn: through challenge, reflection, and direct application to real work. Delivered fully online, combining live sessions, hands-on activities, and structured independent work. Every session is recorded. Learning fits around you, not the other way around.

01. DISCOVER

Understand who you are and what you want. We start by mapping your goals, your context, and your experience, so everything that follows is built what around actually matters to you.

02. CO-CREATE

Shape the learning, not just receive it. Content and challenges are built around real professional contexts, so the learning feels relevant from day one.

03. APPLY

This is where knowing becomes doing. Real scenarios, live problem-solving, and hands-one exercises that connect directly to your professional experience.

04. REFLECT

Connect insights, strengthen what lasts. Through discussion and guided debriefs, you link new knowledge to what you already know and make it yours.

05. IMPACT

You leave with more than knowledge. You leave with the confidence, judgement, and capability to make a difference where it counts.

Learning activities

Every session comes with a set of resources designed to support how you learn, not just what you learn. These are practical, ready-to-use tools that support your learning every step of the way.
