Frequently asked questions

If you are new to AI tools or have only used them casually, start with Level 1 (Generative AI Course). It gives you a solid foundation in prompt engineering, content generation, and everyday AI productivity.

If you already use ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude confidently at work and want to build automations and AI agents, go straight to Level 2 (AI Workflow Automation). Level 1 is not a strict prerequisite, but it helps.

No. Level 1 is entirely no-code. Level 2 uses n8n, which has a visual drag-and-drop interface — no programming required. The OpenAI API module in Level 1 touches on basic code, but instructors guide you through every step.

Yes. Both courses are SkillsFuture Credit eligible. Singaporeans aged 25+ can use their credit balance to offset fees after SSG subsidies. If you are 40 or older, you may have up to $4,500 in SkillsFuture Credit — more than enough to cover both courses at $0 out-of-pocket.
