Alumnara AI

Alumnara AI Level 1 · Planned course

Learn to use AI.
Know how to check it.

A practical online course in development for UK adults aged 18 or over, including beginners and people in non-technical work.

Build a shared foundation, then choose two workplace pathways. The aim is to help you give clear instructions, question AI answers and make informed decisions about what to use.

Target launch: Spring 2027

We’re aiming to open Alumnara AI Level 1 between March and May 2027. We’ll confirm the opening date once learner testing and final quality checks are complete.

This is a provisional target, not a guaranteed opening date.

Practical AI Fundamentals for Work

The planned core starts with what AI can help with, where it can go wrong and how to keep private information safe. You will practise explaining a task, checking a response and deciding what needs to change.

Examples focus on everyday work, such as drafting emails, summarising notes and planning a task. The emphasis is on your understanding and decisions, not simply producing a polished AI answer.

Four directions to explore.

You do not need to choose your pathways when joining the waitlist. These free guides introduce the themes; they are not the full course.

Level 1 and credits are Alumnara programme terms. One Alumnara learning credit represents one planned study hour. They are not an RQF level or regulated qualification credits.

The learning experience · In development

A clear route from reading to doing.

The course is being designed for flexible online study, with short explanations, worked examples and realistic practice.

Your private Student Home

A planned place to find weekly learning, study books and practice, with a clear next step. Student Home is not publicly available while the course is being completed.

Practice before final work

Try a method, check your answer and reflect on the decisions you made. Human-reviewed final work and feedback are planned.

Free AI tools, no coding

Activities are being designed for your own free ChatGPT account, with equivalent alternatives where a feature is unavailable or unsuitable. A paid ChatGPT subscription is not intended to be required.

Completion and recognition

What would completion mean?

A Certificate of Completion is being explored for learners who meet the final course requirements. Its wording and completion criteria remain subject to programme approval. The certificate shown on our homepage is a concept, not an award already issued.

Alumnara AI Level 1 is not a university course, an RQF level, an Ofqual-regulated qualification, an accredited award or a professional licence. It does not qualify you for a regulated profession.
