How to access GenAI courses on Minerva

Using GenAI at Leeds

The Using GenAI at Leeds course is a short training course designed to ensure that all students at the University of Leeds have a common baseline level of knowledge about how to use Generative Artificial Intelligence safely, responsibly and ethically.

This mandatory course will guide you through the University’s guiding principles and share examples to help you explore how to use GenAI in your studies.

All students (including PGR students) are required to complete the Using GenAI at Leeds online course and pass the associated test. It takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.
