This beginner-friendly course will help you develop your digital literacy skills. Each session will be easy to follow, practical, and free of technical jargon. You will have the opportunity to ask questions, and all of them will be answered.
The course will take place once a week on Wednesdays at 19:00 MSK. Participants who attend at least seven out of the eight sessions will receive a certificate of completion.
The course will be led by Daisy Thomas, an AI systems architect, researcher, author, and director of AI policy. Daisy holds certifications in AI ethics and foundational AI technologies from leading institutions. She is also an advocate for responsible artificial intelligence and civic education. In addition to Daisy’s expertise, the course will include guest speakers who will bring their own perspectives and insights.
