Artificial Intelligence Certification NYC

This course builds practical, applied AI skills you can use immediately in your work. You will move from foundations to hands-on application across three areas:

• Foundations & Prompt EngineeringUnderstand how generative AI, large language models, and neural networks work, and learn structured prompt engineering to get reliable, high-quality results.
• Advanced Prompt EngineeringApply prompt chaining and multi-step techniques to build repeatable, higher-quality AI workflows.
• AI Workflows & AgentsDesign automated workflows and AI agents that handle multi-step tasks, and leave with a clear plan for applying AI in your role.

Not at all. You do not need any coding, engineering, or data science experience. This course is about learning to apply AI tools effectively, not building AI models from scratch. You will learn how to use generative AI to strengthen your thinking, writing, and problem-solving, regardless of your technical background.

You will get hands-on experience with leading generative AI tools, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot, and learn to build automated workflows and AI agents using platforms such as Make and OpenAI. You will also apply AI-assisted creative tools like Canva to real tasks.

It's ideal for both. The course is beginner-friendly and requires no prior experience, so it's open to anyone looking to add AI to their professional toolkit. For those new to AI, it teaches the foundations and practical skills the modern workforce expects. For experienced professionals, it's an effective way to formalize and expand your AI skills and stay competitive in an AI-driven workplace.

Classes are taught live by experienced practitioners from top tech companies (like Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft). They actively use AI in their daily work to solve real problems and build with these tools, so you get practical, real-world insights from people applying AI on the front lines.

The course is a part-time, 5-week program designed for working professionals. It requires 3 hours of live instruction per week, which you will attend in person at one of our locations in either New York, Toronto, or London, or entirely live online. The schedule is built to be flexible around a busy professional schedule, with hands-on training, case studies, and projects.
