Four Weeks to AI Fluency
Each week builds on the last — taking you from AI fundamentals to a personal workflow you'll actually keep using.
The Thinking Partner (Foundations & Prompting)
Shift from 'AI Curious' to 'AI Confident' by learning to use ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot as your thinking partners. Move beyond search engines—master prompting, multi-turn conversations, and Copilot integration in your daily work.
- AI fundamentals: what AI is, types of AI, and real-world examples

- The Multi-Turn Conversation: How to 'prime' the AI and iterate until it gets your 'voice' right
- Copilot Integration: Using AI directly inside your Word docs and Excel sheets to save 5+ hours a week
- Outcome: A personalized 'Prompt Library' for your most repetitive weekly tasks (emails, planning, brainstorming)
Information Mastery (Research & Data)
Overcome the blank page and master research and data using Gemini and NotebookLM. Learn to verify sources, generate summaries, and create a 'Private Brain' for your projects.
- Gemini for Live Research: Using Google’s live web access for fact-checking and planning
- NotebookLM Deep Dive: Creating a 'Private Brain' by uploading PDFs/Notes to generate summaries and podcasts
- Source Verifying: Spotting 'AI hallucinations' and ensuring data accuracy
- Outcome: A 'Project Brief' generated from 5+ different sources using NotebookLM
Visual Power (Design & Video)
Professional content creation for those without design experience. Use Canva AI to create presentations and maintain brand consistency.
- Canva Magic Studio: Turning text prompts into presentation decks or social media content
- Brand Consistency: Using AI for consistent colors and tone in images and videos
- Outcome: A 60-second 'AI-Powered Video' with captions and graphics
The Automation Mindset (Workflows & Ethics)
Build a system that works for you. Learn what to automate, privacy and safety guidelines, and map out your own AI-powered workflow using the top tools from the course.
- The Human-in-the-Loop: Deciding what to automate versus what requires human input
- Privacy & Safety: Guidelines on what not to upload to public AI
- Building Your Workflow: Mapping out a 3-step process (e.g., Record Meeting → Summarize in NotebookLM → Create Action Items in Copilot)
- Outcome: A 'Personal AI Blueprint'—a documented workflow for use
