            <p>AI Prompting for Local Government is a hands-on course designed to help front line staff use generative AI effectively, safely, and with confidence on the job. You’ll learn what AI can and cannot do for city work, how it fits within the local government mission, and when to rely on your own judgment. We start by clarifying the basics of generative AI and the three pillars that guide responsible use in public service. From there, you’ll see exactly where AI adds value to daily tasks—like drafting clear service replies, summarizing long documents, and improving public-facing copy—without replacing the human decisions that keep communities safe, fair, and informed.</p>

<p>The course builds your prompting skills step by step. First, you’ll master the fundamentals: setting clear goals, providing context, adding constraints, and asking for the format you need. Next, you’ll practice advanced techniques such as structured prompts, checklists, and step-by-step outputs to get more accurate, repeatable results. Along the way, you’ll learn the city’s guardrails for privacy, security, and public records; how to review and verify AI-generated content; and how to reduce bias while keeping equity and fairness at the center of your work. You’ll also explore practical scenarios—role-playing as the public to improve clarity and empathy, choosing the right tool for recordkeeping needs, and spotting risks like hallucinations and data exposure. Short knowledge checks reinforce each skill, and a final checklist helps you run an ethical prompt before you hit enter. By the end, you’ll be ready with workflow-ready prompts, a clear sense of when and how to use AI, and trusted practices that support responsible service to your community.</p>
