A full-day workshop for senior professionals who want to use AI. Whatever tool is in front of them. The fundamentals that make Copilot, Claude, and ChatGPT actually work. And the judgment to know what to do when the products change.
Reserve your seatIf you've been quietly meaning to "figure out AI" and haven't gotten there yet, you're in the right room.
We meet you where your current knowledge is. We don't expect you to know the difference between Microsoft Copilot and Claude, or ChatGPT and Gemini. We don't expect you to be comfortable with prompts. We will build those skills with you.
You have spent years building expertise. AI doesn't replace any of it. It amplifies it. And here's the part that matters: the skill is tool-agnostic. Whether your organization has standardized on Microsoft Copilot, whether your team uses Claude, or whether that all changes in eighteen months — what you learn here travels. We'll teach you the underlying patterns that work in any model, on any platform, and send you home ready to bring the whole thing back to your team.
A working mental model for how modern AI tools are put together. You'll know today's products (Microsoft Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) and the capability names that don't change when the products do.
The same prompt principles that get results in Microsoft Copilot work in Claude, ChatGPT, and every tool after them. You'll learn the skill once and use it everywhere, including on whatever your organization adopts next.
You'll recognize when AI is confidently wrong, you'll have a quick way to verify, and you'll know where your years of judgment are the thing the machine can't replace.
You won't leave an expert. You'll leave with an understanding of how this technology actually works and hours of hands-on trial and error behind you. And on top of that: printed cheat sheets, a full jargon thesaurus so you never have to wince when someone says "agentic this" or "harness that" again, and everything else you need to keep going on your own and bring your team along.
Eight hours, in person, with lunch and breaks. About one-third instruction, two-thirds doing.
Why you're here, and the mental model you'll use all day. You'll meet today's tools, the capabilities they share, and the names that don't change when the products do.
Two hours on the techniques that work in Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, and every tool that comes after them. How to write prompts that get exactly what you need, why the same principles apply across all of them, and how to set up a shared workspace your team can pick up and run with.
Lunch is provided. You'll be grouped by the tool your organization uses: Copilot with Copilot, ChatGPT with ChatGPT. Where possible, by field too (banking, legal, education) so the afternoon's work stays as close to your real world as we can get it.
Where AI does the work on its own, and where your years of judgment are non-negotiable. You'll fire your first agentic task and learn to spot what AI gets wrong before anyone else sees it.
Your squad picks a real problem from your actual work and builds a solution. The piece that matters: you'll package it so a teammate can pick it up and run it themselves tomorrow.
You and your squad partner trade builds. If they can finish yours using only what you wrote down, you've made something that travels. Leave with the artifacts, a rubric for sizing up any new AI tool, and three names on your share list for Monday.

No. This workshop was built specifically for people who are excellent at their actual job and have not, until now, found a sensible on-ramp to AI. We assume nothing.
It's exactly worth it. Everything you'll learn applies directly to Copilot. Understanding the underlying principles will make you significantly better at using it. The difference between someone who gets 20% out of Copilot and someone who gets 80% is almost always what happens before they hit send. We'll close that gap.
Yes. Stripe will issue a receipt that's straightforward to expense or submit for reimbursement. If your employer needs an invoice in a particular format, send us a note and we'll sort it out.
Full refund up to 14 days before the workshop. After that, you can transfer your seat to a colleague at no charge. Just let us know who's coming instead.
Yes. Once you've registered, we'll send a logistics email with a short list of nearby hotels we like, plus directions and parking info.
For groups of five or more, get in touch directly. We can usually do better than the public rate, and for groups of twenty or more it's worth looking at a custom on-site workshop.
The venue is fully accessible. If you have any specific requests or accommodations we should know about, mention them when you register or reach out directly. We'll make sure things are ready.
September 15. Toronto. Bring your real work. Leave with a way to do it better.
