AIHR (Academy to Innovate HR)
Artificial Intelligence for HR Certificate Program is a paid beginner course from AIHR, online. It costs USD 1,125 (price shown in USD).
It takes about 33 hours and ends with a professional certificate. Starts in 14 days (27 Oct 2026).
For HR professionals who want a thorough, self-paced programme that goes as far as building simple AI agents for HR tasks. Recertification credits from SHRM, HRCI and HRPA add value if you hold those credentials. The caveats: at USD 1,125 it's expensive, and it isn't written around UK employment or data protection rules. For a course that is free to learn, try Generative AI for Human Resources (HR) Professionals from IBM on Coursera.
Self-paced online certificate programme for HR professionals: AI basics for HR, prompt design, generative AI use in HR, building AI agents for HR, AI strategy, and ethics, data privacy and security, ending with a capstone. About 33 hours with 12 months' access.
More courses on generative AI and on prompt engineering.
Level: beginner (as stated by the provider). Delivery: online, self-paced.
