CeADAR has unveiled a new AI course aimed at helping professionals across Ireland use generative AI with more confidence, accuracy and responsibility. Announced through Enterprise Ireland, the fully funded online programme is designed for people who want practical skills in prompt engineering without needing a technical or coding background.
The new course, titled Prompt Engineering for You, has been developed under CeADAR’s European Digital Innovation Hub for AI programme. It focuses on how to create effective prompts for text, image, audio and video tools, while also teaching learners how to critically assess AI-generated outputs in real workplace settings.
AI course from CeADAR opens enrolment
This AI course is open for registration now and can be completed at the learner’s own pace. It is funded by the European Commission and Enterprise Ireland, making it an accessible option for businesses, public service teams and individual professionals exploring AI adoption.
CeADAR said the programme is intended to help organisations move beyond the hype around generative AI and focus on practical, safe and responsible use cases. The initiative also supports the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment strategy around AI adoption for business growth in Ireland.
What participants will learn
Across five modules, the AI course covers core prompt engineering concepts and real-world application. Participants will learn:
- What prompt engineering is and why it matters
- Different prompt engineering techniques
- How to design clearer and more effective prompts
- How to work with text, image, audio and video AI tools
- How to identify risks, limitations and responsible-use issues
Those who complete the programme will receive a Certificate of Completion from CeADAR’s EDIH for AI programme.

Why this AI course matters for Irish organisations
The launch reflects growing demand in Ireland for trusted AI training that is practical rather than theoretical. From companies working with Enterprise Ireland and IDA Ireland to public bodies linked with gov.ie, the Revenue Commissioners, the Health Service Executive (HSE) and the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC), many organisations are now assessing how generative AI can improve productivity while protecting quality, privacy and compliance.
CeADAR’s latest AI course arrives after strong uptake for its earlier online programme, AI for You: AI and the EU AI Act, which reportedly attracted more than 5,000 subscribers. That response suggests strong interest across sectors including Finance, Education, Health, Justice and Local Government.
Ricardo Simon Carbajo, CeADAR’s Director of Innovation and Development and EDIH for AI, said the goal is to cut through the noise surrounding AI and give organisations dependable guidance as they adapt to fast-changing technologies.
No coding background required
One of the biggest advantages of this AI course is its accessibility. It is aimed at professionals at any stage of their AI journey, whether they work in business operations, communications, policy, customer service, research or administration. By removing the need for technical expertise, CeADAR is widening access to AI capability development across the Irish workforce.

What to know before enrolling
Professionals considering the AI course should know that it is online, self-paced and focused on practical use. That makes it well suited to busy teams and individuals who want structured learning without committing to a classroom timetable.
For Ireland’s expanding digital economy, the programme adds another useful pathway for responsible AI upskilling. As generative AI tools become more common in daily work, training like this can help reduce risk while improving results.
In short, this AI course from CeADAR offers a timely and practical route for Irish professionals who want to use generative AI more effectively. With public backing from Enterprise Ireland and alignment with national innovation goals, it stands out as a valuable opportunity for workplace-ready AI learning.
