Proof of Completion

The AI programme has taught me how to partner with AI tools on my academic journey and career planning for my future after university.

I learned how to use AI to make plans. In this case, I developed a tangible and actionable career plan for my future.

I learned about the 5 different levels of AI use according to NWU's guidelines and how to apply them in real life for my studies.

The programme exposed me to a new level of AI tools usage, and I believe that I now know how to use AI tools at an advanced level without violating the University's AI use policies.

The programme's career development aspect has forced me to reflect on my degree and whether it aligns with my goals. I now have a good idea of where this degree might lead me if I follow my plans and make adjustments as needed.

But it has also taught me to avoid overreliance on AI tools and to evaluate AI outputs before using them.

In conclusion, this programme has made me see AI as a valuable tool I can use to enhance my academic and career journey. And with this knowledge, skills and insights, I will set myself up to succeed in my academic, career and personal goals.

How to monitor my progress and hold myself to account,
The importance of collaboration, asking for help and having a mentor,
