This intensive one-day workshop is the essential starting point for any SME looking to harness the power of Artificial Intelligence. Designed to demystify AI, it moves beyond the hype to provide a solid, practical understanding of what AI is, how it works, and how it can be immediately and safely applied to business challenges. Participants will gain hands-on experience with leading AI tools and master the critical skill of prompt engineering, the art and science of communicating effectively with AI to get desired results.

By the end of the day, attendees will not only understand AI's potential but will have the confidence and skills to begin using it responsibly to enhance productivity and drive innovation within their own organizations. The course covers defining AI concepts, identifying opportunities and risks (including data privacy and intellectual property), constructing well-defined prompts using established frameworks (like RTCFE), utilizing various public AI tools, and applying iterative prompting techniques. It culminates in the creation of a personalized "Prompt Library" tailored to individual job roles and business needs, equipping participants to leverage AI from day one.
