This session focuses on navigation, prompting, and understanding model differences, with a strong emphasis on safe use of AI in daily work. It enables business owners, managers, and teams to work more productively by knowing when and how to use AI, without needing deep technical expertise.

You learn how to apply AI to real tasks you face every day. The focus stays on outcomes and workflows, not technical mechanisms.

• The ability to confidently break down tasks and build effective prompts
• Awareness of how to integrate AI into your business workflows
• Strong foundations for safe, ethical, and responsible use
• Hands-on experience applying AI to real scenarios
