What you will submit

A single shareable link (Google Doc/Sheet) to a complete AI-assisted organisation pack with six clearly labelled sections: the organisation description, a communication piece, a short grant or donor document, an event-and-volunteer plan, the prompts used, and a short ethics note.

What to do, step by step

  1. Choose a real or realistic Nigerian organisation (e.g. a church in Ibadan, a mosque youth group in Kano, an NGO in Enugu training widows, or a CDA in Lagos) and write a short description of it: its name, location, mission, who it serves, and one current project or event it is working on. This context anchors everything else in the pack.
  2. Create a communication piece for that organisation using the techniques in Lesson 3 — either a one-page newsletter/bulletin OR a polished announcement set (a WhatsApp message plus an Instagram or Facebook post for the same event). It must use real, consistent facts (date, venue, call to action), sound warm and authentic, and fit Nigerian channels.
  3. Write a short grant or donor document using Lesson 4 — either a 1-2 page concept note/mini grant proposal (with background, problem statement, goal and objectives, activities, beneficiaries, a simple naira budget, and M&E) OR a warm one-page donor appeal letter. All data and figures must be honest and realistic — no fabricated statistics.
  4. Produce an event-and-volunteer plan from Lesson 6 for the organisation's project or event: a planning checklist grouped by timeline, a simple run-of-show or programme, a basic naira budget with a contingency, and a volunteer roster with at least three roles and a sample reminder message.
  5. Document the prompts you actually used to produce each part (copy them into a 'Prompts used' section), and add a short note (3-5 sentences) on how you kept the work ethical — what you verified, how you protected any personal data (NDPA), and where you kept the human/spiritual core rather than letting AI do it.
  6. Put everything into one shareable Google Doc or Sheet with clear headings (Organisation, Communication Piece, Grant/Donor Document, Event & Volunteer Plan, Prompts Used, Ethics Note), set the link to viewable, and submit the link.

How it is graded

CriterionWeight
Communication piece — a warm, authentic, channel-appropriate newsletter or announcement set with consistent real facts and a clear call to action25%
Grant/donor document — a well-structured concept note/proposal (or appeal letter) with the right sections, a realistic naira budget where relevant, and honest, non-fabricated data30%
Event & volunteer plan — a usable timeline checklist, run-of-show, naira budget with contingency, and a volunteer roster with roles and a reminder message20%
Prompts documented & ethics — the actual prompts are shown, and the ethics note demonstrates fact-verification, NDPA-aware data protection, consent, and keeping the human/spiritual core15%
Nigerian realism & overall polish — real local context (naira figures, real channels like WhatsApp, plausible funders/institutions) and a clean, organised, professional pack10%

You need 65% overall to pass. A failed submission comes back with feedback and can be revised and resubmitted.

Before you submit: make your link public

If your work lives in Google Drive or Google Docs, open Share → General access and change “Restricted” to “Anyone with the link” (Viewer). Then paste the link into a private browser window: if it opens without sign-in, you are ready. A private link cannot be graded — it is the single most common reason a good project fails.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to finish AI for Churches, NGOs & Community Organizations before submitting the project?

Yes. The submission screen opens once every lesson in AI for Churches, NGOs & Community Organizations is marked complete. The lessons are where the methods, the Nigerian context and the worked examples the project depends on are taught.

How is the project graded?

An examiner scores each rubric criterion from 0 to 100 and weights them as shown on this page; you need 65% overall to pass. Most submissions are graded within minutes and you get written feedback on what was strong and what to improve.

Can I resubmit if I fail?

Yes. A failed project comes back with feedback; revise the weak parts and resubmit. A passed project is final — the certificate is issued and cannot be re-rolled.

What do I actually submit?

A write-up of what you did (under 5,000 characters) plus a public link to your work — a Google Drive folder, Google Doc, spreadsheet, GitHub repository or video. The link must open without sign-in; a private link cannot be graded. The free project workbook on this page walks you through all 6 steps.

Is the certificate real?

Yes. Passing this project issues a certificate with a unique verification code. Anyone — an employer, a client, a school — can open the verification page and see that the certificate is genuine and which project earned it.
