AI Fundamentals from The Prompt

From AI-anxious to AI-confident in 3.5-hours, join this hands-on workshop for busy professionals who want to build the skills, mindset, and confidence to stay relevant and ready in the era of AI — and walk into 2026 prepared instead of playing catch-up.

In a small-group, in-person setting, we’ll get practical with the tools reshaping your industry, real demos, and real talk—no hype, no jargon, no slide decks to sleep through.

You’ll walk away with immediately useful workflows you can apply at work the next day, and a clearer understanding of how AI is reshaping the professional landscape.

Perfect for putting year-end learning funds to work in a way that actually matters.

Info: We start by making AI feel accessible and grounded.

You’ll learn how modern AI actually works, why it’s different from search, and the mindset that helps people get consistently better results—curiosity, iteration, and seeing AI as a collaborator rather than a shortcut.

Expect real examples, light demos, and a few “Ah, now I get it” moments.

Info: A quick reset to stretch, chat, and let ideas land.

Info: This is hands-on and practical.

We walk through the core prompting patterns professionals rely on—how to frame a question, how to provide context, and how to use short back-and-forth loops to improve accuracy and depth.

You’ll use a custom Prompt Workbench you can take home, and you’ll see how small adjustments can turn average outputs into genuinely helpful ones.

Info: A guided tour of the tools that matter most right now—writing and editing assistants, meeting and summarization tools, research helpers, planning aids, and a few creative options for fun and inspiration.

You’ll learn what each tool is good at, where it struggles, and how to build simple routines that make AI feel useful from day one.
