What People Are Saying

“This AI Course for Social Good is a must for my humanitarian advocates out there. It is well structured, ethically grounded, practical, and free! All you need is your time - which you'll make back, and some, once you put into practice the AI tools.

I appreciated not only learning how to use the AI tools for advocacy and research, but how to ensure accuracy, accountability and liability while inputting and extracting data.”

- Issie Basile
Policy Officer at ICVA (International Council for Voluntary Agencies)

“All 4 courses were very good and value added in my nonprofit work. The trainers were experts and I appreciated the balance of learning concepts with seeing practical examples.”

- Tina Bolding
