Artificial Intelligence for Users

ChatGPT and other AI assistants are changing the way we work, communicate, and process information. During this hands-on one-day course, you’ll learn how to use ChatGPT effectively to work faster, smarter, and more creatively.

You’ll be introduced to the basics of artificial intelligence and Large Language Models (LLMs), so you’ll understand how ChatGPT generates responses and why the quality of the output depends on how you formulate a prompt.

The course focuses on practical prompting. You’ll learn how to write clear instructions, add context, use roles, and specify the desired output format. You’ll also be introduced to various prompting frameworks that help you consistently achieve better results.

Throughout the day, you’ll work on hands-on exercises where you’ll learn to refine prompts, build complex prompts, and effectively use ChatGPT for your daily work. The latest features will also be covered, such as Projects, Custom Instructions, Skills, AI Agents, and image generation with ChatGPT.

By the end of the course, you’ll have practical skills that you can immediately apply in your own work. Although the course focuses on ChatGPT, most prompting techniques are also applicable to other modern AI models.

What will you learn in this course?

Prompting involves giving instructions to an AI model to achieve a desired result. The better the prompt, the higher the quality of the response. During this course, you’ll not only learn what ChatGPT can do, but—more importantly—how to use it to its full potential.

You’ll gain insight into how AI and Large Language Models work, learn why AI sometimes makes mistakes or “hallucinates,” and discover how you can significantly improve the quality of responses.

Among other things, you’ll learn:

  • how to construct effective prompts;
  • add relevant context;
  • how to use roles;
  • specifying the desired output;
  • how to iteratively improve prompts;
  • working with prompting frameworks such as RTF, CARE, GCCO, and POIO.

You’ll also discover how to use ChatGPT more efficiently with Projects, Custom Instructions, and Skills. You’ll be introduced to AI Agents and learn how to write clear prompts for generating images.

The course is highly practical. Nearly every topic is immediately followed by exercises, so you’ll learn to apply the techniques right away in realistic real-world situations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Prompts in ChatGPT (LLMs)

No. The course focuses on using ChatGPT with natural language. You’ll learn how to get good results using smart prompts, without any programming or technical background.

No. Although the course focuses primarily on ChatGPT, the prompting skills covered are largely applicable to other large language models. The principles behind effective prompting are similar across many AI tools.

Effective prompting goes beyond asking a single question. You’ll learn how to clearly define the context, role, objective, and desired output, enabling ChatGPT to provide more targeted, consistent, and useful responses.4.

ChatGPT can provide very useful information, but it isn’t infallible. In this course, you’ll learn how to spot incorrect or fabricated answers, how to verify information, and how to use ChatGPT responsibly as a supportive tool.
