Project Management Institute (PMI)
Practical Application of Generative AI for Project Managers is a free course from PMI, online. It takes about 5 hours and ends with a free CPD certificate.
We rate it intermediate level; the provider doesn't say.
For project managers who already dabble with AI tools and want to apply them to real project work. It stands out on value: free with a PMI account, hands-on across eight project areas, and it earns 5 PDUs if you keep a PMI certification. The caveat: prerequisites aren't stated, and the intermediate level is an editorial assessment, not PMI's. For a shorter start on prompting, try Talking to AI: Prompt Engineering for Project Managers, also from PMI.
Five hours of hands-on PMI e-learning on combining AI tools, prompting techniques and workflow automation across eight project areas: stakeholders, team, development approach, planning, project work, delivery, measurement and uncertainty. Earns 5 PDUs.
