“AI Ready” is the Government’s new national AI skilling platform.
AIReady.ie enables anyone to learn the fundamentals of artificial intelligence through free, practical and bite‑sized online courses, allowing learners to engage flexibly, anytime and anywhere.
AIReady.ie was created by the Government of Ireland, through the Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science in partnership with the National Skills Council and SOLAS and is designed to make learning about AI more accessible and inclusive. It supports people to develop in‑demand skills needed for work, study and everyday life, regardless of prior experience or technical background.
Current content focuses on building foundational AI literacy and practical digital capability. Initially, the platform will offer a series of four free, short courses tailored to older people, small businesses such as sole traders and farmers, and individuals returning to the workforce.
Each AIReady course takes less than 30 minutes to complete and can be accessed on a smartphone, tablet or laptop, allowing learners to build skills quickly and flexibly, wherever they are.
AIReady.ie offers free, practical and bite-sized AI courses designed to help people build the skills and confidence they need to engage with AI in their work, education and everyday lives. No technical background is required.
