Build a Solution
Chat with the [AI 301: Build with AI] Evaluator
Claim your certificate

1. Craft a Problem Statement

Infographic showing the 4Cs framework for defining a problem statement: Clarity (who is affected and what is broken), Consequence (what happens if the problem is not solved), Cause (root causes of the problem), and Confirmation (evidence that the problem is significant and worth addressing).

☑️ Think about a problem you are facing at work, or even in your personal life. Craft a problem statement according to the 4Cs you have learnt.

Example of Problem Statement:

My team does shift work. Rostering officers is a manual process.

🟦 Clarity: Operations supervisors rely on a shared spreadsheet to manage shift rosters, making updates time-consuming and error-prone.

🟥 Consequence: Missed roster updates can result in understaffed shifts and service disruptions.

🟨 Cause: Rostering is handled manually across multiple tools with no real-time synchronization.

🟪 Confirmation: The team faces frequent roster-related issues, with staff regularly missing schedule changes.

2. Build a Solution

☑️ Now, build a solution to your problem. You can use a vibe coding tool such as Figma, or use enterprise AI solutions such as ChatGPTs Custom GPTs and skills.

Example of Solution:

Shift Scheduler
A drag-and-drop roster calendar that lets supervisors assign officers to shifts. Built with Figma.

Input: Supervisors drag and drop officers into shifts, while the system updates the roster and tracks changes in real time.
Output: A live, up-to-date roster that all staff can view

3. Chat with the Evaluator
