Who it is for
Who it is aimed at.
- Learners who have built at least one complete AI solution — in practice, those who have completed Generative AI solutions integrator and one of the next two blocks. The block is also aimed at IT managers.
Afterwards
Where it leads.
- AI solution architect, pre-sales consultant, AI project manager. This is the block that takes you from developer to designer.
Method
How it works.
Systematic alternation between short theory sessions and practical work, with most of the time spent on practice
Progression from simple to complex: each module builds on what was learnt in the previous one
Realistic role-plays drawn from Cameroonian business cases
Considered use of generative AI as a working tool, in line with the common core
Regular formative assessments and a final integrative project drawing on all four modules
Assessment
How you are assessed.
Formative assessment at the end of each module (graded role-play and practical exercises)
Practical work assessed against competency sheets
Final integrative project, presented and defended before the trainer
One graded assignment per module in the online course space
Tools
What you work with.
Architecture diagramming tool
Feasibility grid and scoping note template
Costing and sensitivity analysis spreadsheet
Security frameworks for AI systems (OWASP LLM Top 10)
Compliance file template
