Professional Certificate in Generative AI (Administration And Operations)

CHATGPT | MIDJOURNEY | GEMINI

Late last year, a major breakthrough in the world of artificial intelligence put extraordinary powers in the hands of anyone with access to the internet. Kevin Roose, the Times Tech columnist, calls ChatGPT “the best artificial intelligence chatbot ever released to the general public”. With it’s release, the technology has already sent many educators into a panic since students can use it to do their work for them, passing off A.I.-generated essays and problem sets as their own.

The Professional Certificate in Generative AI (Administration & Operations) equips participants with the skills to apply Generative AI technologies across a spectrum of administrative and operational tasks. The certificate focuses on enhancing efficiency in proposal and policy paper creation, streamlining administrative duties, and optimizing HR processes, including strategic manpower planning and scheduling. Over three two-day workshops, attendees will learn to harness AI for greater organizational efficiency, making informed decisions faster, and improving operational workflows in both military and business environments.

Programme Objectives

Upon completing the program, participants will be able to:

  • To understand and apply Generative AI technologies for improving the efficiency and quality of proposal and policy paper development.
  • To leverage AI for automating routine administrative tasks, enhancing document management, and optimizing email communications.
  • To utilize AI for strategic HR operations, focusing on manpower planning, scheduling, and overall workforce optimization.
  • To critically assess and integrate AI tools into existing operational processes, ensuring ethical and effective use.
  • To foster a culture of innovation and continuous improvement in administrative and operational practices through AI adoption.

Programme Structure

In the dynamic landscape of military and business operations, the ability to swiftly adapt and optimize processes is crucial. Generative AI offers transformative potential in this regard, particularly in administration and HR, where traditional methods can be resource-intensive. For military professionals, the precision and efficiency brought by AI are invaluable for operational readiness and strategic planning. In the business sector, AI-driven optimizations in administration and HR can lead to significant cost savings and productivity gains, thereby providing a competitive edge. This certificate program combines theoretical insights with practical, hands-on experience, preparing participants to lead the integration of AI into administrative and operational practices within their organizations.
