Getting started with artificial intelligence
This is the training we can deliver to your teams, in 4 hours, 8 hours or 3 days. We work from your real tasks, and there's no code at all.
3 formats
4 hours, 8 hours or 3 days.
6 modules
Each one ends with an exercise.
4 deliverables
Your prompts, a charter, a 30-day plan, an assistant.
Who it's for
Employees, freelancers, business owners: anyone opening an AI tool for the first time, or already using one without a method.
The only prerequisite is being able to send an email and browse the web. Everyone brings a real task from their week.
The six modules
The 3-day format covers all six modules, two a day. For 4 or 8 hours, we pick the modules together on the call. Either way, half the time is hands-on, on your own files.

Understand what AI does
Goal
Know what AI does well, where it gets things wrong, and which tool to open.
- AI predicts the next part of a text, so it writes, summarises and sorts very fast.
- It can also invent a figure or a quote, with the same confidence.
- The main tools side by side: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Le Chat, Copilot.
- How to choose: the tool your company already has, the language, and where your data goes.
Exercise: Ask two tools the same work question. Note three differences, and keep the one that works best for you.

Ask the right way
Goal
Get a usable first draft on the first try, or close to it.
- A good request, the prompt, says six things: who is speaking, the context, the task, the format, the limits, and an example of the result you want.
- If the answer is off, you fix what's missing, what's too long, or the tone.
- You leave with five ready-to-use prompts for your job: email, meeting notes, summary, follow-up, meeting prep.
Exercise: Take a task you did this week and turn it into a prompt. Test it, correct it once, file it.
- 03 · 3 h
Check before you send
Goal
Never send anything you haven't checked, text or image.
- Break the answer down and check each fact, one by one.
- Ask the AI what it isn't sure about, then compare with the original document.
- Read a generated text the way you'd read a rushed intern's draft.
- Make a simple visual, with a readable caption and alt text.
Exercise: Produce a text, find three errors or vague points, then fix it until it's ready to send.
- 04 · 4 h
Your data, GDPR and the EU AI Act
Goal
Know what you can hand to AI, and write your own rules.
- What never goes into a consumer account: health data, ID documents, passwords, customer files with names.
- A decision that affects a person (a refusal, a grade, a dismissal) is never left to AI alone.
- Since February 2025, the EU AI Act requires any company using an AI system to train its teams. This course meets that requirement.
- What's banned: social scoring, manipulation, emotion recognition at work, scraping faces online.
Exercise: Write your team's charter, one page and ten rules at most: what gets pasted, what doesn't, who reviews, how you tell the client.
- 05 · 4 h
Build your assistant
Goal
Pick three useful uses, and build an assistant for one of them.
- Your tasks fall into three groups: repetitive, judgement, relationship.
- AI drafts the first group. It prepares the other two, but you sign them off.
- You build an assistant for one case: its instructions, the documents it may read, what it doesn't do.
- You also see an AI agent at work, and what you never connect to it: the whole inbox, the customer database, payments.
Exercise: Run your assistant on a real document, anonymised according to your charter.
- 06 · 3 h
Your 30-day plan
Goal
Leave with a concrete plan, and a way to check that it works.
- Three uses, an owner for each, the allowed data, and when to stop if quality drops.
- Three simple indicators: time spent, manual corrections, errors avoided.
- To keep up: one source, thirty minutes a month.
Exercise: Each person presents their plan. The group looks for the gap: sensitive data, someone not told, a task that shouldn't be delegated.
Assessment: attendance at the exercises, charter and plan handed in, and a short quiz on forbidden data and the training requirement.
What each participant takes away
Your prompts
Five standard prompts, tested and sorted by task.
The usage charter
One page: which data, who reviews, how you tell people, what's banned.
The 30-day plan
Three uses, an owner, the allowed data, an indicator.
Your assistant
Set up for a real task, with the list of documents it may read.
Afterwards
Seven more hours, for those who have done the full programme and already use their assistant. On the agenda: connecting the right documents, building an agent for a repetitive task, and listing what should stay manual.
4 hours, 8 hours or 3 days: format, dates and price are set on the call.
Discovery call by video, no commitment.
