AI for Not- for Profits: Practical Tools & Ethical use

A practical, beginner-friendly two-and-a-half-hour session that demystifies AI and shows non-profit organisations and staff exactly how it can support your daily work.

You'll learn the essentials of what AI is, see real examples of how it can save time and improve outcomes, and try simple prompts you can use straight away. We'll also unpack ethics, fairness and bias in a clear, accessible way so you can use and question AI results. This course is designed for organisations and individuals who are curious about AI but unsure where to start and who want to build practical, ethical AI skills.

The workshop is delivered live online via Zoom, and the session is recorded. 

Slide handouts notes are provided afterwards.
