FAQ Results

I am not fluent in English. Will this be a problem in Zoom meetings?

It will be difficult to understand everything if you don’t speak English, though we do have speakers in other languages who may be willing to assist.

Are there areas of AI that need more exploration in the curriculum?

AI is an ever-changing and developing field. We hope to give you enough tools to be useful for a long time. But we also know that more things will become possible week by week. So we aim to get you going and stretch your thinking, and also give confidence to keep learning after the Academy.

I also have commitments like my business and studies, so I’d like flexibility.

Everything is flexible and shared. So if you can’t be on any Zoom calls, you will still receive the recording to watch in your own time. All videos and course materials are shared for you to do in your own time at your own pace.

Do you help people produce and distribute their work?

We will give training, some coaching and help answer all the questions we can. We can also provide a place to share your resources freely. Beyond that we are not able to help.

Is the program suitable for someone with no knowledge of AI?

Yes, we will be able to help people who have never even looked at AI to get started. You will only need a basic knowledge of how to open a website and the ability to login to an AI app (which is free).

Can AI tools assist with language translation and communication in regional languages?

Yes we are seeing ways that AI is greatly assisting in translation. 

Should I plan to purchase, or subscribe to, software to use during the academy?

We will talk about some paid subscriptions that you can choose to use if you would like to and can afford them. 

Is it possible to access Level 1 training contents if I don’t have online access?

Everything is online and accessible for free. There will be a handbook to support the training which will be available both on the GCF website, and as a PDF.

Can I join Level 2 if I am not chosen for Level 3?

We are not having levels anymore. So everyone will be able to access everything.
