AI-Integrated Exercises Included

Stop hoping for good AI output. Start briefing.

You've tried AI. The results were impressive sometimes, mediocre most of the time. The problem isn't the tool. It's the brief. Learn to brief AI like a sharp new hire, then build that skill into something reusable.

About the course

AI Enablement Foundations is a 4-session live training that fixes the briefing problem behind inconsistent AI results.

Your frame is the Intern Metaphor: your AI tool is a brilliant intern on their first week. Capable, fast, and eager, but with zero context about your organisation or what good looks like in your world. A vague request gets a generic result. A clear brief gets something genuinely useful.

Across four 2-hour sessions, you'll write better briefs, make them reusable, and build a small team of specialised AI assistants.

What you’ll learn

This course changes how you brief AI, not just what prompts you memorise.

• Structure a brief using Context, Task, and Output so AI has what it actually needs
• Add reasoning steps to get AI to think through a problem instead of guessing at it
• Turn a one-off prompt into a reusable template you can hand to your team
• Give your AI tool a standing job description it keeps across conversations
• Build a small team of specialised AI assistants that pass work between each other
• Diagnose why a prompt failed, instead of giving up and trying something else at random

What's covered

4 sessions. 2 hours each. Everything you build carries forward. Each session builds directly on what you created in the last one.

Session 1: The Coffee Order
• Why vague prompts get vague results
• The CTO framework: Context, Task, Output
• Feel the difference between a typical prompt and a structured one

Session 2: Make It Real
• Briefing AI with your actual project details
• Building a brief you can reuse, not rewrite each time

Session 3: Build Your Own
• Adding reasoning steps: first analyse, then consider, finally recommend
• Designing a prompt from scratch for your real Monday-morning challenge

Session 4: The Specialised Team
• Giving your AI tool a standing job description
• Building multiple specialised assistants that hand off work to each other

What you need to bring

No prior AI experience required.

• No technical background needed
• Access to any AI chat tool you already use (ChatGPT, Claude, or similar)
• Virtual sessions: set up Zoom (instructions provided)

Right for you if you are…

• A professional who has used AI tools but gets inconsistent results and doesn't know why
• A manager who wants their team to use AI consistently, not as individual guesswork
• Someone who has heard about prompt engineering but found most advice too abstract to use
• A leader exploring how AI fits into team workflows, without committing to a big platform rollout first
• Anyone who wants AI skills that compound over four sessions, not a one-off lunch-and-learn

Dave is an acclaimed Scrum and Agile trainer, dedicated to helping individuals master Scrum methodologies for their personal growth and improved project management skills. His engaging and practical training approach empowers individuals to embrace an Agile mindset, driving their professional development and effectiveness in various team environments.

Most people quit on AI because they think the tool is the problem. It's almost never the tool. It's that nobody taught them to brief it. Give a brilliant intern a vague ask and you get a generic answer, every single time, with any tool you use.

Everything included

• Certificate of completion
• The CTO framework template: yours to reuse on any future prompt
• A working set of reusable prompt templates built across all four sessions
• Your own standing AI job description, ready to use immediately
• Pre- and post-session curated reading and practice exercises

This entire course is the AI section, start to finish

The Intern Metaphor, applied for real

Every session reinforces the same frame: your AI tool is a capable intern with no context. By Session 4, you're not just prompting better, you're running a small team of specialised AI assistants.

Building AI Capability

Built to compound, not to be forgotten by Friday

Most AI training is a single session that fades within a week. This course is four sessions where each one builds on what you made in the last, so the skill sticks because you used it three times before you finished.
