FAQ Results

Is there any certification for this?

This is not an academically recognized course. It is however a very practical ministry training course led by ministry practitioners. We will be able to give you a Certificate of Participation at the end if you fill in a questionnaire.

How does the team plan to address diverse learning needs?

We will do our best, and we are keen to learn more of what you would like to see happen to support this.

Can we represent Max7 in Nigeria (or any other country)?

Max7 is a open-source sharing website and not an organization. So anyone is able to share it, but it’s not like an organization that has staff or representatives.

How can AI support rural and tribal ministries more effectively?

We will cover the area of making tools for all sorts of ministry situations. This may help, and already has in rural and tribal settings.

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.

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.

How should I start preparing for this AI Academy?

We will be sending out things to look at when the Academy begins. There will be lots of wonderful resources to watch and read. Please also pray and also think about something you might like to try and make that would serve your ministry.

Can the Academy be extended to parts of the world without computer access?

AI requires a computer to make it work. So at this stage the training is based around people able to access it. However, we already have great examples of resources made with AI that are helping people who don’t have computers or phones.

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.
