Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to take the courses in order?

If I complete only one of the courses, will I still receive the certificate?
Participants must complete all 3 courses in order to receive the AI in Health Care Certificate of Specialization.
I took Applied Artificial Intelligence for Health Care in 2021 or 2022—does that count towards the certificate?
Yes. Responsible AI for Health Care: Concepts and Applications is an updated version of the program you attended, so in order to obtain the certificate, you only need to take Innovation with AI in Health Care and Implementing Health Care AI into Clinical Practice
