DiploFoundation held a graduation ceremony on 9 July in Geneva for professionals from international organisations who completed the April 2025 edition of the AI Apprenticeship course.

As AI reshapes how we work, International Organisations face a clear challenge: how to ensure AI strengthens, rather than disrupts, their ability to deliver on complex global mandates.

The AI Apprenticeship for International Organisations (IOs), developed by Diplo, provides a practical and applied response to that challenge.

Unlike technical training or abstract policy discussions, this apprenticeship focuses on enabling professionals to design and build AI tools directly relevant to their daily work, whether that’s improving access to information, enhancing communication, or supporting better decision-making.

The AI Apprenticeship is part of Diplo’s broader effort to close the AI skills gap in international Geneva and beyond, ensuring that those shaping global policy also have the tools to navigate and shape the AI era.

A selection of projects created by our participants in the Geneva AI Apprenticeship for IOs program is available for browsing here. Each reflects how AI, when designed thoughtfully and applied responsibly, can complement human expertise and support the work of IOs, from improving access to institutional knowledge to tackling misinformation.
