AI Foundations Sprint
From AI curiosity to confident daily use in two days.
Programme overview
The AI Foundations Sprint is a hands-on programme that turns AI-curious employees into confident daily users. No prior technical background is required.
Participants leave with a working understanding of how modern AI tools think, a personal library of prompts and workflows that match their job, and the judgement to know when AI helps and when it doesn't.
Every session pairs short, plain-English explanations with live exercises on the participant's own tasks, so the skills land immediately and stay in use after the programme ends.

Use ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini confidently for daily work
Write prompts that produce reliable, on-brand output
Identify five to ten tasks in their role to automate or accelerate
Recognise the risks, limits and ethics of generative AI
