Level 1 gave you the vocabulary and the boundaries. Level 2 puts AI to work on the tasks that fill a manufacturing professional's day: reading an RFQ package and drafting the quote narrative for the estimator, telling a customer why an order is late without promising a date the scheduler has not confirmed, turning a released routing and drawing into a work instruction an operator can follow, writing up a nonconformance so the quality engineer can disposition it, and drafting a corrective-action record that an auditor will accept.
The course is organised around five workflows. Each one begins with a plain-language look at what a language model can and cannot do for that task, continues with a worked manufacturing example built on fictional plants, parts, customers, and suppliers, and ends with a practical exercise you complete in your own approved tools. Every lesson names the point at which a qualified person must review the output: the estimator owns the price, the engineer owns the drawing and the change, the authorised employee owns the energy control procedure, the quality engineer owns the disposition, and the safety lead owns anything that touches machine guarding, lockout/tagout, or hazard communication.
You will build a plant prompt library for quoting, customer service, work instructions, safety content, and quality records; a verification routine that traces every AI statement about a dimension, a material, a process step, or a delivery date back to the released document or system record it came from; and a record-keeping habit that shows a customer auditor, a registrar, or an OSHA compliance officer exactly how AI was used on a job. A dedicated module covers what may never reach a general AI tool at all: trade secrets, customer drawings under NDA, export-controlled technical data, and employee data.
The final examination draws randomly from the full question bank and is scenario-based. This is an independent educational course offered by AI Coalition Network. It does not replace engineering judgment, an approved procedure, a manufacturer's instruction, a quality management system, or the laws and regulations that apply to your plant.
