Microsoft and LinkedIn join forces to offer an exciting learning opportunity in the field of generative artificial intelligence.
This branch of artificial intelligence focuses on creating new content from existing data and has applications in various fields such as graphic design, education, entertainment, and scientific research.
With the aim of fostering skill development in this area, both companies have launched a series of free courses that will enable beginner professionals to acquire knowledge and learn how to apply generative artificial intelligence in their work.
The AI Skills Initiative certification program by Microsoft, developed in collaboration with LinkedIn, consists of five study modules.
Each module includes instructional videos, and some also feature quizzes and supplementary work files.
Upon successfully completing all five modules, students will receive a Professional Certificate in Generative Artificial Intelligence, which they can showcase on their LinkedIn Learning profile.
It is important to note that the content of these courses focuses on Microsoft’s Bing Chat platform, which utilizes OpenAI’s GPT-4 technology.
This choice highlights the relevance and potential of this technology developed by Microsoft compared to its competitor, Google’s Bard.
To facilitate global access to this training, the courses will be available in multiple languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese.
And the best part is that these courses will be free until the year 2025, providing an exceptional opportunity to acquire skills in this constantly evolving field.
These efforts by Microsoft and LinkedIn reflect the growing importance of acquiring skills in generative artificial intelligence in the current job market.
You can access the courses on LinkedIn under the name “Career Essentials in Generative AI by Microsoft and LinkedIn.”
Dear Julio,
You wrote: “ You can access the courses on LinkedIn under the name “Career Essentials in Generative AI by Microsoft and LinkedIn.”
And I have tried to find it, but unfortunately I cannot find such a topic anywhere in my LinkedIn.
Can you help? Do I need to pay LinkedIn to have access to this course?
Hope to hear from you soon.
King regards,
Marcelo M.
