Generative AI Essentials - Prompting ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini (eLearning+Classroom) EN

Learn to use Generative AI — ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, and Claude — at an advanced level! Get started with AI Prompting, Skills, and AI Agents in your own work environment.

The work environment is changing rapidly due to the rise of Generative AI. But how do you turn this technology from a fun gadget into a strategic advantage?

In Axveco’s Generative AI Essentials blended learning course, you will truly understand and, above all, learn how to apply Large Language Models (LLMs), Generative Pre-Trained Transformers (GPTs), Skills, and AI Agents.

This training goes beyond simply “prompting”; we dive into the logic of LLMs, the art of advanced AI Prompt Engineering, and the essential frameworks of safety and ethics. At your own pace, you will build the expertise needed to take the lead in the AI revolution within your organisation.

We use leading models such as ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, Claude, and more. You will mainly work with text prompting and Agents for business use, but image, animation, music, and voice will also be covered.

We have been delivering this programme for four years, and it remains highly popular as an entry point into AI.

This e-learning is intended for a broad professional audience who want an accessible introduction to Generative AI:

• 
  
• 
  

  The Active Knowledge Worker: Whether in marketing, finance, HR, or IT, you seek ways to double your productivity with AI.

  
  
• 
  
• 
  

  Curious yet Critical: You don’t settle for superficial answers and want to understand why a model gives a certain output and how to steer it.

  
  
• 
  
• 
  

  A Self-Starter: You enjoy learning independently, experimenting in a safe environment (our AI Playground), and immediately applying your knowledge to your daily work.

  
  
• 
  
• 
  

  No Technical Background Required: You don’t need to be a programmer; a healthy dose of digital fluency and a drive to innovate are enough.

  
  
• 
  

As this programme is designed as a broadly accessible entry-level course, it is explicitly not limited to IT professionals, but intended for everyone who wants to understand Generative AI in an informed and responsible way.

Upon completion of this blended learning path, you will be able to:
