Testimonials
“Both professionally and through my personal interest in technological developments, this continuing education program gave me an excellent foundation for understanding the field of artificial intelligence and the connections between its different areas. For me, this foundation is invaluable for applying the diverse possibilities of AI in industrial environments in ways that create value for people, products, and machines.
What I found especially enriching was the exchange with the lecturers and fellow participants, as well as the network that grew out of it. Technology should first and foremost serve people—and this core principle was conveyed throughout the CAS in a meaningful and lasting way.”
René Abächerli, Industrialization Project Manager at maxon CAS “Understanding and Applying AI: No-Code Solutions for Business Practice”
“The CAS course has fundamentally broadened my perspective on artificial intelligence and sparked many new ideas for my professional practice. I found it particularly valuable to gain an understanding of the possibilities, limitations, and complexity of AI from both a technological and a legal perspective. I recommend this continuing education program to anyone who is curious about discovering new things on their own and wants to actively tap into the potential of AI for their daily professional life.”

CAS “Understanding and Applying AI”
"I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to complete this training program at ZHAW. I was particularly excited to be able to implement a real-world example right during the training.
The training was challenging and maintained a high technical standard. At the same time, the many practical examples ensured that the content was understandable and tangible. The instructors were always available to answer questions and supported the participants with expertise and dedication.
For me, the program also proved that it’s possible to successfully complete it even without any prior programming experience."
