Hanoi (VNA) – Vietnam’s National Innovation Centre (NIC) and the US's Intel Corporation have launched the “AI for All” initiative, an ambitious programme designed to make artificial intelligence (AI) knowledge accessible to every Vietnamese citizen.

The initiative aims to raise public awareness of AI’s growing influence while equipping individuals with essential digital skills to thrive in the future workforce. It aligns with Resolution No. 57 of the Politburo, which prioritises breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation. The programme also supports Vietnam’s "Digital Literacy for All" movement, which was officially introduced on March 26.

Developed by Intel, “AI for All” is a self-paced online learning programme tailored for everyone - from students and office workers to parents and senior citizens. As AI continues to revolutionise industries and daily life, this initiative ensures that all individuals can adapt to technological advancements and seize new opportunities in the digital era.

Participants will explore AI fundamentals, real-world applications, and common misconceptions while also delving into AI ethics, responsible usage, and its impact across various sectors. Those who complete the four-hour course will receive a digital certification, serving as a stepping stone for further AI education and career development. The course is available in both English and Vietnamese, making AI knowledge widely accessible.
