Imagine an AI system that does more than answer a question. It reads an email, decides what needs to happen, updates a spreadsheet and asks someone for approval. That kind of multi-step task is what the Intellisoft Training guide describes as agentic AI—and learning to build or use it can take different paths.
The guide’s main message is that there is no single course that suits everyone. A good choice depends on your technical experience, what you need AI to do at work and which tools you already use.
For people without programming experience who want to automate repetitive tasks, the article points to a two-day, 16-hour no-code course, using “Create Agentic AI Automations Without Coding” as an example. It lists an approximate fee of S$390 after 70% funding. The guide also describes a two-day course using Claude Code and OpenAI Codex for analysts, power users and developers who want to build AI applications and agents; its approximate post-funding fee is S$468.
The right tools may also depend on your workplace. Staff whose work centres on Microsoft 365—such as Outlook, Excel, SharePoint and Teams—might find Power Automate a better fit. Those who also want to build business applications could consider Power Apps alongside Power Automate. For IT staff and power users creating custom copilots, the guide names Microsoft Copilot Studio and Microsoft 365 Copilot Agents, while noting that these options are not yet funded in the guide.
Not everyone needs to build an agent. If your main goal is to write, research or analyse information more effectively with ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot, the article suggests that a general AI-tools course—or free self-paced tutorials—may be enough. And for learners who want to understand the code behind AI applications, it suggests learning Python fundamentals before taking an AI coding course.
Cost is another part of the decision, but the figures need careful attention. The guide says eligible SkillsFuture or WSQ-funded courses have a TGS course reference. It gives examples of 70% funding for Singapore Citizens aged 40 and above and SME-sponsored staff, and 50% for other eligible Citizens and Permanent Residents. SkillsFuture Credit, SFEC and UTAP may further reduce the remaining cost. These amounts depend on eligibility; the listed fees are not guaranteed for every learner.
There is also a useful detail to keep in mind when weighing the recommendations: Intellisoft says it runs several of the courses featured in its own guide. Its suggestions are the publisher’s guidance, not an independent ranking. The article does not establish which course is objectively “best,” compare teaching quality or learner outcomes in a controlled way, or show that a course leads to a particular job or salary.
So the most practical first step is to define your goal: automate routine tasks, build applications, work within Microsoft tools or simply get more from everyday AI assistants. Then check the course content, tools and funding eligibility against that goal.
