Make better policy decisions with AI you can trust

AI for Policy Makers (Prompt Course) shows policy professionals how to use structured AI prompts to produce clear analysis, sharper drafting, and faster decision support across the full policy cycle. It is built for elected officials, staffers, analysts, regulators, planners, auditors, and nonprofit policy leads who need credible outputs they can defend to colleagues, stakeholders, and the public.

The course organizes practical prompt workflows across core policy functions-impact analysis, drafting assistance, public opinion insights, forecasting, environmental and urban modeling, education and health evaluation, budget optimization, crisis readiness, compliance review, international comparison, technology policy, and social welfare assessment-so you can move from a policy question to a well-supported brief, measure trade-offs, and keep implementation on track.

What you'll learn

  • Translate policy objectives and constraints into clear AI tasks that produce verifiable, structured outputs.
  • Build repeatable workflows for evidence scans, scenario exploration, sensitivity checks, and stakeholder summaries.
  • Draft, refine, and quality-check legislative and regulatory language for clarity, consistency, and enforceability.
  • Combine qualitative insights with quantitative reasoning to support decisions under uncertainty.
  • Plan budgets and allocations using transparent assumptions, equity considerations, and measurable outcomes.
  • Assess environmental, health, education, and social program effects with practical proxies and policy-relevant indicators.
  • Prepare for crises with tabletop-style prompts that clarify roles, resources, thresholds, and communications.
  • Run compliance and alignment reviews against statutory, regulatory, and ethical requirements.
