Course Description
The Applied Artificial Intelligence Workflow Transformation Practitioner (AAIWTP) course is designed to equip professionals with the practical knowledge and skills required to improve real-world business processes using Artificial Intelligence (AI), automation, and digital workflow technologies.
Rather than focusing only on AI tools or prompting techniques, the course takes a workflow-first approach. Participants learn how to understand and analyse existing business processes before determining where AI and automation can provide meaningful improvements. This enables learners to identify genuine business needs, diagnose process problems, evaluate opportunities, and design solutions that are practical, responsible, and aligned with organisational objectives.
The course covers the complete AI-enabled workflow transformation lifecycle, including business process analysis, opportunity discovery, requirements gathering, business case development, responsible AI and governance, workflow solution design, low-code/no-code automation, testing, implementation, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
Participants also learn how to work with data responsibly and consider important areas such as data quality, information security, access controls, privacy, regulatory requirements, and human oversight. Responsible AI principles and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF) are incorporated into the approach to designing and implementing AI-enabled workflows.
Through practical learning and workplace-focused scenarios, participants develop the ability to bridge the gap between AI capabilities and real organisational requirements. By the end of the course, learners will be better prepared to identify, design, support, and continuously improve AI-enabled workflow solutions across a wide range of industries.
