How Every Program Works

Learn. Apply. Build.

Every program follows the same path, from understanding AI to using it on real work to making it last.

Learn

What AI tools can and can't do, how to prompt well, how to check the output, and how to protect privacy and follow responsible use.

Apply

Participants use AI on their own tasks during the session, so they leave with work done and workflows they've already tested.

Build

Reusable prompts, templates, and simple assistants, plus a plan for rolling the skills out so they stick after the training ends.

Each program is tailored to your audience, field, and goals. The outlines below show what a typical version covers.

Tool neutral

We teach the tools your organization already uses or approves, including ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, and Google Gemini.

Responsible by design

Privacy, accuracy, and copyright are part of every session, not an afterthought.

Taught by someone who uses it daily

Every program comes from running real businesses with these tools, not from theory.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do participants need any experience with AI?

No. Programs start from where your group is. Beginners get the foundations, and experienced users go straight to applying AI to their work.

Which AI tools do you teach?

The ones your organization uses or approves. Most programs cover ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, or Google Gemini, and the skills carry over between tools.

Can you come to us?

Yes. We teach in person or online in Blacksburg, Christiansburg, Radford, Dublin, across Virginia, and beyond.

How is pricing set?

Every program is tailored, so pricing depends on the format, length, group size, and how much customization you need. Request a program and we'll send a proposal with a clear quote.

What about our data and privacy?

Participants never need to enter confidential information to take part, and every program covers how to protect sensitive data when using AI tools.

Can we see the full curriculum?

Yes. After a first conversation, we share a detailed outline and sample materials as part of your proposal, adjusted to your group.

Can you train our staff to teach the material?

Yes. Our custom programs can include facilitator guides and preparation sessions so your own staff can deliver the training.
