A practical path into AI — at your own pace
Your team knows AI is changing the way people work. But knowing and doing are two very different things — and most teams are stuck somewhere in between. Our short workshops close that gap fast, with practical, hands-on skills that are ready to use from day one.
There is one rule: the AI Foundations workshop is where everyone starts. It builds the mindset, the vocabulary, and the hands-on confidence that makes everything else stick. Once your team has that foundation, choose the follow-up workshop that fits your goals best — or book both.
We’re completely tool agnostic. We’ll train your team in whichever GenAI tool your IT department has approved — whether that’s Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, or another platform. We recommend having a paid subscription in place before the workshop, as free-tier tools can run out of tokens mid-session and disrupt the experience. Not sure what you have? We’ll sort that out on our discovery call.
Is this the right fit for your team?
These workshops are for organisations that want to cut through the noise and get their team using AI properly — together. Here’s how to know if you’re in the right place.
This is for you if…
✅ Your team is curious about AI but there’s no consistency in how — or whether — they use it
✅ Some people are overusing it with no guardrails, while others are avoiding it completely
✅ Your IT department has signed off on Copilot or ChatGPT, but no one knows what to do with it next
✅ You’ve got a team training day or allocated learning time and want AI to be part of it — properly
✅ You want to test the water with a focused workshop before committing to a longer program
✅ You’re a leader who’s worried your team is falling behind — and wants to fix that fast
This is not for you if…
❌ You’re looking for a pre-recorded, self-paced online course you can just send a link to
❌ You want a generic off-the-shelf session that isn’t built around your business, your tools, or your team
❌ You need technical AI development, coding, or software engineering training
❌ You’re after a one-size-fits-all solution with no follow-up or ongoing support
❌ You want AI policy or legal compliance consulting — though we can point you in the right direction
What your team will walk away with
Every workshop is designed to deliver real, immediately applicable skills — not just a better understanding of what AI is. Here’s what participants gain.
💬 Prompting skills that actually work
Your team will know how to write clear, effective prompts — and how to refine them when the output isn’t right. No more random guessing.
⚡Immediate, practical time savings
Real tasks, real tools, real results. Your team will identify tangible ways to use AI in their day-to-day work before they leave the room.
📘A workbook and prompt guide to take away
Every participant receives a workshop workbook and a curated prompt guide so the learning doesn’t stop when the session does.
🎯AI trained on your business
Participants learn to brief AI tools on your brand voice, your customers, and your specific context — so outputs sound like you, not a generic chatbot.
🤝Confidence — not confusion
No more avoiding AI or blindly trusting everything it produces. Your team leaves with a clear, human-first framework for working alongside it responsibly.

How it works
Getting started is straightforward. Here’s the process from first conversation to workshop day.
1. Book a free chat
A 15-minute call to understand your team’s goals and confirm which workshop is the right starting point.
2. We brief and prepare
We learn about your business, your team, and your goals so the session is built around your real challenges — not hypothetical ones.
3. Workshop day
Two hours of hands-on, energising learning — in person or online — followed by a Q&A Zoom check-in two weeks later to lock in the gains.
The workshops
Your workshop pathway
Start with AI Foundations - it's compulsory for all participants. From there, choose one or both follow-up workshops based on what your team needs most.
Workshop 1: AI Foundations
This is where the confidence gap closes. Your team gets hands-on with AI tools like ChatGPT or Copilot through live demonstrations and real-world examples - including training the tool on your business, your brand voice, and your customers. Everyone leaves knowing how to write prompts that actually work.
Includes: Live demonstrations · Guided prompt exercises · Bring your own real tasks · Workshop workbook · Prompt guide · Signed copy of AI-Human Fusion · Follow-up Q&A Zoom check-in (~2 weeks later)
$3,000 + GST per session, up to 20 participants · travel fees may apply outside Sydney
Then choose one or both
Workshop 2: Marketing & Corporate Communications
Your team learns to use AI for emails, reports, social media, internal messaging, and client proposals - all while protecting your brand voice. They'll build reusable prompt libraries for their most common communication tasks and leave with techniques they can put to work immediately.
Includes: Brand voice prompting · Prompt library build · Live content exercises · Workshop workbook · Prompt guide · Follow-up Q&A Zoom check-in
$3,000 + GST per session · travel fees may apply outside Sydney
Workshop 3: Systems & Processes
This is where AI moves from interesting to indispensable. Your team builds templates for repetitive tasks, explores automation opportunities, and creates shared prompt libraries that make AI a trusted, embedded part of everyday work - not just an experiment that fades after a week.
Includes: Workflow templates · Shared prompt libraries · Automation exploration · Workshop workbook · Prompt guide · Follow-up Q&A Zoom check-in
$3,000 + GST per session · travel fees may apply outside Sydney

FAQs
Common questions about the short courses
Everything you need to know before booking.
No - and that's the whole point of offering them as standalone sessions. The AI Foundations workshop is the compulsory starting point for everyone, but from there you choose what's relevant for your team. If communications is your biggest challenge, Workshop 2 is your next step. If you want to embed AI into your day-to-day operations, Workshop 3 is the one. You can do one, or both - entirely up to you.
That said, if all three are on the cards, the full AI Skills Development Program gives you significantly more value, more support, and more lasting impact for a lower cost per session. Find out more here.
Absolutely. All three workshops are available in person or online - whichever works best for your team. Online sessions are run via Zoom and are just as interactive and hands-on as the in-person format. The follow-up Q&A check-in two weeks after each workshop is always held online.
If your team is split across locations, we can accommodate that too. Just mention it when we chat and we'll work out the best approach for your situation.
We're completely tool agnostic - meaning we'll train your team in whichever GenAI platform your organisation uses. Whether your IT department has approved Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Google Gemini, or another tool, we'll build the session around what your team actually has access to.
We do recommend having a paid subscription in place before the workshop day. Free-tier accounts have token limits that can cut out mid-session, which disrupts the experience for everyone. If you're unsure what tools your team has access to or what level of subscription you're on, that's a great thing to flag on our discovery call and we can help you figure it out.
This is the norm, not the exception - and it's exactly what these workshops are designed for. In most teams, you've got a mix of what we call the innovators (using every AI tool going, sometimes without much direction), the dabblers (logging in occasionally but unsure what they're doing), and the worriers (anxious about AI and yet to set up an account). Sound familiar?
The AI Foundations workshop meets all three groups where they are. Rather than catering to the most experienced person in the room and leaving everyone else behind, we focus on building a shared language, a consistent approach, and genuine confidence across the whole team. The questions that come from a complete beginner are often the most valuable ones for everyone to hear answered out loud.
Start with AI Foundations - that's the non-negotiable first step for every team. After that, the answer usually comes down to your biggest current pain point. If your team spends a lot of time on writing, reporting, or content - Workshop 2 on Marketing & Corporate Communications is likely the most immediately useful. If you're looking to streamline repetitive processes or build shared systems - Workshop 3 on Systems & Processes is the right call.
Not sure? That's what the free 15-minute discovery call is for. We'll ask a few quick questions about your team and point you in the right direction - no pressure, no pitch.
Every workshop includes a follow-up Q&A Zoom check-in approximately two weeks later. This is where the real embedding happens - your team has had time to try things in their actual work, and the check-in gives them a structured space to troubleshoot, share wins, and go deeper on anything that came up.
We ask that your team's AI Champion (the person coordinating the training internally) collects questions in advance so the session stays focused. That said, there's always room for fresh questions on the day.
If you'd like ongoing support beyond the workshops, the full AI Skills Development Program includes monthly Q&A check-ins across three months. We can also discuss tailored follow-up options for teams that want to keep the momentum going.
