Completely free, the course can be taken asynchronously, meaning students can access the content at any time and from anywhere.
The material is structured into four modules, focusing on demystifying and teaching the application of AI in everyday life.
In the first module, participants will learn the basics of Artificial Intelligence and how it can be used by anyone.
The second module focuses on how to integrate AI into everyday activities, making it easier to perform everyday tasks.
The third module addresses the creation of practical solutions with AI, teaching how to transform simple processes into more efficient activities.
Finally, the last module is dedicated to updating participants, introducing new AI tools and trends.
An opportunity for everyone: requirements and details
The course is fully accessible to any literate person who is a resident of the state of São Paulo. There is no minimum or maximum age to participate, which makes the initiative even more inclusive.
According to the program's official website, the total duration of the course is four hours, and the student has up to three months to complete the classes.
Once the course is completed, participants will receive a certificate issued by StartSe, proving their participation in the program.
The Secretary of Economic Development, Jorge Lima, highlighted the importance of the course, emphasizing that AI is a technology that is already part of our daily lives and that its training is essential for the new demands of the job market.
“Artificial Intelligence is here to stay and we want everyone to know about this topic. That’s why we’re offering 1 million places on this free introductory course for those who want to stand out and prepare for the new demands of the market,” said the secretary.
Impact of AI on social and economic transformations
Artificial Intelligence has profoundly transformed several areas of society, impacting not only large companies, but also the way people carry out everyday tasks.
Junior Borneli, CEO and founder of StartSe, commented on the impact of AI, stating that we are experiencing a transformation that surpasses the industrial and agricultural revolutions.
For Borneli, this change is not just technological, but also a reflection of new public policies aimed at developing the population's technological skills.
“This partnership with the Government of São Paulo shows that it is a matter of public policy.
Our idea is that people can study better, evolve professionally and develop more quickly by knowing how to use the full potential of this technology”, commented the CEO.
The “AI for All” course fits into this context of democratizing knowledge. By being offered free of charge, it enables people of different ages and backgrounds to have access to fundamental learning to navigate the demands of the contemporary job market.
The expectation is that, over the next few months, more and more people will sign up and take advantage of the opportunity to become experts in one of the most promising areas today.
