About this programme
AI has moved from buzzword to everyday tool, and you do not need a technical background to use it well. Most professionals and business owners are still only scratching the surface while competitors quietly cut hours off routine work, produce better marketing and make sharper decisions.
This is not a lecture. It is a working day. You set up the tools on your own laptop, build prompts around your real tasks and leave with a concrete 30-day plan for your job or business. Everything is taught in plain language, with examples from the industries our participants work in: finance, banking, insurance, tourism, retail, trading and services.
The programme runs monthly in a small cohort of 25 to 30 people, so there is time for questions and one-on-one help. Bring one or two real tasks from your week and finish them on the day.
