What is responsible AI training for Australian workplaces?

Responsible AI training teaches people to get real value from AI tools without putting their workplace, its customers or themselves at risk. It covers what never goes into a tool, how to ask for useful help, how to check the answer and when a person must decide. Responsible AI for Australian Workplaces teaches this as one simple habit, in short online lessons. It is free for individuals and ends with a certificate of completion.

Who it is for

Anyone in Australia who uses, or is about to use, tools such as Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini at work. You do not need a technical background. The examples come from offices, inboxes and meeting rooms.

What the free course covers

  • Use AI responsibly. Recognise privacy risks and follow workplace rules
  • Write better prompts. Give AI clear tasks, context and expected outcomes
  • Produce better work. Draft emails, documents, summaries and plans
  • Verify AI outputs. Check sources, claims, mistakes and missing information
  • Stay cyber safe. Spot scams and sign-in prompts you never started
  • Build repeatable workflows. Turn common tasks into steps you can reuse

How the course works

Lessons are short and online, so you can do one with your morning coffee. Your place is saved. The core route takes about two and a half hours in total, spread over as many sessions as you like. That figure is an estimate.

Each module ends with a short check you can retry. Finish the core modules and a short survey to receive your certificate of completion, with a code anyone can verify.
