AI Starter Workshop
Help your team get genuinely good at the AI tools you already pay for.
Most AI training is slides and generic demos. AI Starter is different. I sit with your team for a morning and we build prompts together using their actual tasks. They walk out with a prompt playbook and a guarantee: if they're not using the prompts a month later, I come back for free.

What you get with AI Starter Workshop.
Plain-language scope. If something isn't on this list, it isn't in the engagement: ask me and we'll write it in or leave it out.
Hands-on workshop
3 hours to half a day, sized to your team. Mostly building, not watching. Your team writes their first prompt in the first 20 minutes.
10 custom prompts, delivered to your team
Drafting, summarizing, extracting, brainstorming, and more. Each one built around tasks your team actually does, not generic demos.
Prompt playbook
A shared document your team keeps using after the workshop. Every prompt, a plain-language guide, and a 30-60-90 day plan.
Works for every skill level
Structured so the person who uses AI daily and the person opening it for the first time both walk out with something useful.
90-day follow-up
Check-ins at day 3, 14, 30, 60, and 90. Not a single email. A structured system to make sure it sticks.
Usage guarantee
If the team isn't using the prompts a month later, I come back for a free session. Your word is enough.
3 tiers. Pick the one that fits.
Same process, different depth. Sized to your team.

Multi-session program
The workshop plus a 4-week office-hours program. For teams that want structured support baked in, not a one-and-done.
The questions people ask.
Do we need technical skills?+
No. If you can use email, you can learn this. The workshop is designed for non-technical teams. We start with the basics and build up.
What AI tools do we need?+
Whatever your team already uses or wants to try. ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini all work. If nobody has picked one yet, we handle signup in the first 10 minutes.
What if our team has mixed skill levels?+
That's the norm, not the exception. The workshop is structured so the person who uses AI daily and the person opening it for the first time are both working on their own tasks at their own level. Nobody gets left behind or held back.
Will AI replace our team?+
89% of companies that adopted AI kept every employee (Asana State of Workplace Innovation, 2024). What changes is what they spend time on. Less manual work, more judgment work.
What if we already use AI daily?+
Then we skip the basics and spend the full session building advanced prompts and stress-testing them. Teams that already use AI get the most out of the pair-prompting and fishbowl exercises.
How long until we see results?+
Your team will use AI on real tasks the same day. Each person leaves with a specific task, a specific day and time to do it, and a buddy to check in with. Most teams report measurable time savings within the first week.
What about data privacy?+
No real customer data goes into AI tools during the workshop. We use anonymized examples. The prompts in your playbook use placeholder brackets, not real names or data.
Is this a CRA-deductible expense?+
AI Starter is a business training expense. Most businesses can claim it under CRA business deductions. Talk to your accountant for specifics.
Can you come on-site?+
Included if you're within 45 minutes of Milton, Ontario. Beyond that, there's a $300 flat travel fee. Or we do it on Zoom or Google Meet.
What does each person walk out with?+
A prompt playbook of 10 custom prompts built from your team's own real tasks, plus a 30-60-90 day adoption plan so the habit sticks after the workshop ends.
How does the usage guarantee work?+
It's a 30-day usage guarantee. If your team isn't using the prompts on real work a month after the workshop, I come back and run a follow-up session at no charge.
How big can the group be?+
Up to 25 people, priced in three tiers by team size: up to 6, 7 to 12, and 13 to 25. Smaller groups get more hands-on time per person.
What does it cost?+
Priced by team size: $997 for up to 6 people, $1,500 for 7 to 12, and $2,500 for 13 to 25. It's a half-day, hands-on, on-site within 45 minutes of Milton or remote.
