Who it's for

Any team, at any level, that’s new to AI or using it without much confidence. It’s built for a mixed room, from graduates to senior managers.

Before you start: None. Participants just need access to whichever AI tool your organisation has approved.

What your team will be able to do

  • Explain in plain English what generative AI can and can’t do
  • Write prompts using a simple four-part structure
  • Use AI for three everyday tasks: drafting, summarising and brainstorming
  • Spot made-up answers and check AI output before using it
  • Follow your organisation’s rules on data and privacy

A typical session covers

Prompting basics

The four-part prompt, practised on everyday workplace examples.

Module 3

Everyday tasks

Drafting, summarising and brainstorming: three habits that save time from day one.
