AI tools

The assistants you will actually use at work

We teach the tools teams have already adopted, and we teach them honestly — including where each one gets things wrong and how to check its output before you rely on it.

Claude

Anthropic

An assistant built for long documents, careful reasoning and code. Known for very large context windows, so you can hand it a full codebase or a hundred-page report and ask questions about all of it at once.

In class: Structured prompting, document analysis, code review, and calling the API from your own app.

ChatGPT

OpenAI

The most widely used AI assistant in the world. Handles text, images and voice, runs custom assistants you configure yourself, and exposes the same models through an API.

In class: Prompt patterns that hold up under pressure, building a custom assistant, and API basics.

Gemini

Google

Google's multimodal assistant, built into Search, Android and the Workspace apps most offices already run on.

In class: Multimodal prompts across text and images, and automating document and spreadsheet work.

GitHub Copilot

GitHub / Microsoft

An AI pair programmer that lives inside your editor, completing code as you type and answering questions about the file you have open.

In class: Pair programming discipline, and how to review AI-written code before it reaches a pull request.

Midjourney

Midjourney, Inc.

A generative image tool used heavily in design, marketing and concept work, driven entirely by written prompts and reference images.

In class: Image prompt structure, style control, iteration, and what the licence does and does not allow.

Perplexity

Perplexity AI

An answer engine that searches the live web and cites its sources, rather than answering from memory alone.

In class: Research workflows, source checking, and knowing when a citation is doing real work.

Admissions

Common questions about enrolling

Not for beginner programs — they start from the first line of code. Intermediate programs ask you to pass a 40-minute online assessment covering variables, loops, functions and basic data structures.

Six hours of live class plus three to five hours of lab work. Students who work full time usually take the weekend cohort and spread lab work across two evenings.

Every session is recorded and posted the same day. If you miss two consecutive classes your mentor books a catch-up call before the next assessment.

We allow one diploma plus one short certificate. Two diplomas in parallel is refused — the project load makes it counterproductive.

Yes. The fee is €1,999 including the exam and certificate. Withdraw within the first two weeks for a full refund, minus the registration fee. After week two, fees convert to credit you can use on any future cohort within a year.
