ChatGPT at Work — Practical Skills for Kenyan Professionals

Most people open ChatGPT, type one vague line, get a flat paragraph back and decide AI is overrated. The skill is in the brief you give it and the checking you do afterwards. This course teaches both, using one fictional Nakuru hardware business and the real work it generates: supplier emails, quotations, stock spreadsheets, customer messages and a monthly report. You submit eight pieces of work and your portfolio is marked against a published rubric.
