About This Course

What Is the AI Micro-credential?

This micro-credential is not about replacing your thinking. It is about sharpening it. Across five modules you will explore what AI really is, how to use it with integrity, how to spot bias and misinformation, how to write purposeful prompts, and how to collaborate with AI without losing your own voice.

Powered by Mindshare Learning and grounded in C21 Canada's 7Cs of new AI competencies, this credential prepares you to engage with AI as a critical, creative, and ethical thinker, not just a user.

Each module is practical and accessible. You do not need to be a tech expert, only curious and willing to think critically. By the time you complete the final assessment, you will have demonstrated not just what you know, but how you apply it.

Your grade is based on your prompt and your process - not just how the infographic looks. A thoughtful prompt that shows real understanding is worth more than a polished output from a vague one.
