What you'll learn

AI responses can be hit or miss. Sometimes they’re helpful, sometimes vague, and sometimes completely off. The key to getting better results is writing better prompts. In this course, Getting Started on Prompt Engineering with Generative AI, you’ll learn to craft clear, structured prompts that guide AI to give you high-quality, relevant responses. First, you’ll explore how AI processes language and why prompts matter. Next, you’ll discover how to structure and refine prompts for different tasks, using techniques like few-shot and chain-of-thought prompting. Finally, you’ll learn how to evaluate AI responses for accuracy, coherence, and bias, and how to tweak prompts to improve them. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of prompt engineering needed to use AI effectively for content creation, automation, problem-solving, and more.
