The 11287NAT Diploma of Artificial Intelligence is a nationally recognised qualification at AQF Level 5. It is built for business people working outside ICT: owners, managers and specialists who need to use AI well in the role they already do. It is applied and practical, not technical. There is no coding, and you can apply every unit to your own work.

Most AI training ends with a quiz score and a certificate on the wall. This diploma is built the other way around. Every unit is assessed by having you produce a real, usable asset for your own workplace.
It is applied, not technical. You will not write code. You choose the right AI tools, apply them to a real task in your business, and keep what you build.
It also teaches one habit that changes how a business uses AI: fix the system, not the output. When a result is not right, you improve the prompt, the guidelines or the method behind it, so every future output improves, not only the one in front of you.
Every unit can be completed on a real task in your business, so you learn by doing the actual job.
Improve the method behind the work, and every future result improves with it.
You leave each unit holding something your business owns and can keep improving.
The same qualification serves the person building their own career and the business building capability in its team.
Earn a nationally recognised AI qualification and the real skill to go with it. You finish able to do the work, with a portfolio of assets that prove it, and a credential that opens roles across operations, data, content, customer experience and AI governance.
Build in-house AI capability instead of hiring for it. Your sponsored team member applies every unit to your actual operations, so the business gets working systems as they learn, and the capability stays with you. One person becomes the one who owns AI in your team.
One requirement of the diploma is providing performance evidence. You demonstrate each skill by applying it, so the qualification reflects capability you can use immediately, not only knowledge you can recall. Graduates are equipped for roles such as:
Every role above is grounded in something you built during the diploma. The next pages show the eight units, what each one provides you, and the capability it proves.
Each unit stands on its own and produces something you keep. Together they can build a complete set of AI capability across content, data, operations, customer experience and governance.
By the time you graduate you are not holding a certificate alone. You hold a set of working assets you built on your own business, ready to keep using and improving:
I came to AI from running and managing businesses, not from writing code. The judgement came first, and the technology is just the tool I aim at the problem. Two and a half years ago I had no technical background at all. I had never built or designed a technical system in my life.
Today I advise Australian businesses on AI strategy, implementation, change management and governance, and I train people with no technical background to do the same. Part of that journey was completing the 11287NAT Diploma of Artificial Intelligence myself, as a graduate. Now I am the expert trainer and assessor for it, a Training Worx product (RTO 52508), so I teach and assess the very qualification I earned.
I am living proof of the whole thesis: the AI expert can be grown, without a previous technical background.
