More than a course: in 2–3 hours, each person builds the foundations for the safe use of AI tools and personal data. Your company automatically receives the training record to match: a certificate with QR verification and a documentation folder per person.
Cleanly documented, without you having to be an expert yourself: oriented towards AI literacy under Art. 4 EU AI Act and the relevant data protection principles of the revDSG.
In 2–3 hours, the course explains what employees may do with AI tools in everyday work, what is risky, and how to avoid mistakes — no jargon, with examples from office life. The website is available in German, French, Italian, English and Ukrainian — the course itself is currently available in German.
For every trained person, structured documentation is created automatically: course content, test result, role context, timestamps and refreshers. Oriented towards the requirements of Article 4 of the EU AI Act. A documentation aid — not legal advice, but a solid basis when someone asks.
You can see at any time who has been invited, who has completed the course and where a refresher is due. The system sends the reminders — not you.
Every certificate carries a QR code with a public verification URL. Customers, partners or recruiters can confirm its authenticity in seconds — no login, no call to you.
Strengths, limits and typical misconceptions about AI in everyday office work.
Clear guardrails for tools, approvals and responsible use within the team.
Practical examples covering customer data, payroll data, job applications and internal information.
Methods for spotting plausible-looking errors, invented sources and uncertain claims.
Phrasings that give employees useful results without entering confidential information.
Warning signs of faked voices, images, emails and payment requests.
Careful handling of third-party content, source attribution and AI-generated text.
An overview of the key terms and what AI literacy means in everyday work.
Modules, lessons and duration are recorded for each person.
The folder contains the completion date, the passing final result and the certificate ID.
Every certificate can be verified publicly using its verification code.
Behind the unwieldy names are two simple ideas: people's data should be protected, and AI should be used in a way that can be trusted. Both involve less bureaucracy than they sound — and both start with employees knowing what they are doing. Here is the short version, without legalese. (Orientation, not legal advice.)
The revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revDSG/nFADP, in force since September 2023) has a single goal: protecting people's data — your customers', your employees', your job applicants'. It applies to every company in Switzerland, regardless of size or industry, because practically every company works with personal data: addresses, contracts, payslips, emails.
The basic idea is simple: whoever holds people's data handles it with care — knowing which data is used for what, protecting it appropriately and not passing it on thoughtlessly. This is exactly where AI comes in: anyone who enters personal data into an open AI tool gives it away.
The EU AI Act is the European Union's AI law (entering into force in stages since 2024). Its goal: AI should be used — but safely, transparently and by people who understand what they are operating.
The riskier an AI application, the stricter the rules; for ordinary office work, one point matters most: Article 4 requires companies to ensure sufficient “AI literacy” among their employees — they should know what the tools in use can do, where their limits lie and what to watch out for. For Swiss companies, this becomes relevant as soon as there is an EU connection, such as customers in the EU. And regardless of any obligation: what the AI Act asks for is simply sensible — enable people before you hand them tools.
The easiest way to start: first look, then train. Start with the free AI Risk Check — 16 questions, about three minutes, an instant traffic-light result. You will then know where your business stands. The second step is the basic training: the Linup KI-Pass, 2–3 hours per person, with an automatic documentation folder.
Linup records curriculum, result, role context and timestamps. That is more than a certificate to file away.
Language, CHF pricing and data protection context are geared to Swiss SMEs.
The website is available in German, French, Italian, English and Ukrainian — the course itself is currently available in German.
The final quiz tests the most important rules. Anyone who doesn't pass repeats it free of charge and without pressure.
