AI for ICT and Technical Support

Fixing things is easy. Stopping them breaking is the skill.

The best IT teams catch problems before anyone notices. This course is built to get you there.

Why this course

The support tickets are the same. What you can do with them has changed. This course is built around real IT tasks - triage, scripting, monitoring and documentation - so you arrive ready to do more than fix what's in front of you.

What you'll learn

This course covers the core of modern IT support - from triage and scripting to monitoring, security and stakeholder reporting. By the end, you'll be able to:

Write prompts that get AI to handle real technical tasks

Classify tickets, summarise incidents and build dynamic FAQs with AI

Write and validate AI-generated scripts - from PowerShell to Bash - for IT admin tasks

Monitor systems, detect patterns and predict failures before they happen

Deliver an IT case study you can walk through in any interview
