Overview

Thinking about learning more about Artificial Intelligence?

The BCS Foundation Certificate in Artificial Intelligence teaches the general principles of Artificial Intelligence, its potential implications and capabilities and how to assess AI products and services from multiple angles.

You will learn the potential benefits and challenges of ethical and sustainable robust artificial intelligence; the basic process of machine learning (ML) – building a machine learning toolkit; the challenges and risks associated with an Artificial Intelligence project, and the future of Artificial Intelligence and humans in work.

With the Artificial Intelligence sector set to be worth over $15tn by 2030, this is a great time to learn about AI.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
