AI F.A.S.T. Class Webinar 1 - Foundations of AI

Kickstart your AI journey. Build literacy in the tools, terms, and techniques every professional needs.

• Learn how to pivot your skills to stay relevant in an AI-first economy.

• Explore strategies to lead through change and redefine human value at work.

• Apply the PILLARS framework for precise prompting to turn vague requests into actionable instructions.

Bring your laptop. This AI Training is a hands-on, interactive workshop — not a lecture. You’ll be experimenting with your own tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Copilot) and guided through practical exercises that apply directly to your role.

You’ll learn how to:

• Understand the fundamentals of generative AI and its workplace impact

• Write effective prompts for clear, consistent outputs

• Identify where AI saves the most time in daily workflows

• Gain confidence using AI responsibly and professionally

Who it’s for
Business owners, managers, and professionals who want practical, on-the-job AI skills, but are unsure where to start. No prior experience required, but both beginner and intermediate AI users will find tremendous value.

Requirements

• Laptop with browser access

• Login to at least one AI tool (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot)

• Curiosity and a willingness to grow

Caelan educated us on the benefits and the pitfalls, and took away many of the fears we had around data security. We've already achieved payback on the time we spent in this programme, and we're now thinking big time about how we can use AI to support our growth plans, securely." - Geoffrey Sullivan, Managing Director, Hiko Power Engineering
