About This Course
The way we work has changed. Your thinking needs to keep up. Are you reviewing accounts generated by AI rather than preparing them yourself? Are you managing employee queries shaped by AI tools? Are you wondering where your value sits as automation takes on more of the task work?
Until recently, we told machines what to do. Now machines analyse, recommend and generate outputs that influence our decisions.
Critical thinking is what helps you decide:
- What to trust
- What to question
- What to verify
- What to do next
This programme strengthens your ability to use AI without outsourcing your judgement.
Who This Course Is For
This course is ideal if you are:
- A professional using AI tools and needing to evaluate the quality of outputs
- A manager making decisions in fast-moving, information-heavy environments
- Working in project, product, operations, finance, HR or customer-facing roles
- An L&D or HR professional building capability in judgement and responsible AI use
- Someone who wants to reduce mistakes and communicate more clearly
No technical AI knowledge is required.
What You’ll Learn and Be Able to Do
By the end of the programme, you will be able to:
- Apply practical critical thinking tools to analyse information and recommendations
- Identify assumptions, gaps, weak evidence and false certainty, including in AI outputs
- Recognise cognitive bias and reduce its impact on decisions
- Ask sharper questions to clarify goals, trade-offs and constraints
- Evaluate sources for credibility, relevance and incentives
- Spot common reasoning errors such as cherry-picking or false causation
- Make decisions more confidently under uncertainty
- Sense-check AI-generated content for accuracy, tone and suitability
- Communicate with clearer logic and stronger evidence
- Build a personal critical thinking checklist you can use immediately
