# AI Fundamentals Workshop for confident everyday use > Move from uncertain experimentation to confident, responsible everyday use. Participants learn which tool to use, how to give useful context, how to check the answer and when not to use AI. The session ends with one workflow they have tested themselves. ## What this program changes in practice Most teams do not need another tour of AI terminology. They need a shared answer to everyday questions: which tool belongs to which task, what information is safe to provide, why one request produces a useful answer while another does not, and who must check the result. The workshop builds that common baseline without making non-technical participants feel behind, then turns the learning into a workflow they can recognise and use in their next working week. The session is not a fixed sequence of demonstrations. The facilitator works with the team on Understand the modern AI workday, Choose the right tool, Ask for useful work, using ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Your approved AI tools when those systems are approved and available. Participants compare first results, make missing context visible and improve the work together. They learn not only which request works, but why an output is reliable enough to move into the next working step. The value should not end when people leave the room. Exercises therefore produce concrete outputs such as Reusable request template, Human review checklist, One tested workflow. They give colleagues a traceable starting point, show where human review is still required and make the next pilot smaller and more realistic. Optional follow-up work can build on those artefacts instead of beginning again with another general introduction. ## Program facts - Recommended format: Focused workshop · 4 hours - Alternative formats: Core workshop · 4–6 hours - Delivery: On-site / in person, online, or hybrid - Prerequisites: No technical prerequisite; exercises use approved tools and non-sensitive examples. - Audience: Non-technical teams, mixed departments and leaders who need a shared practical foundation. - Reviewed: 2026-08-20 ## Tools participants use - **ChatGPT:** Draft, analyse, research and turn recurring work into reusable team instructions. - **Microsoft Copilot:** Work with approved Microsoft 365 capabilities across documents, meetings, email and business information. - **Your approved AI tools:** Exercises adapt to the systems, licences and data boundaries your organisation has approved. ## Outcomes - Choose an appropriate tool for the task - Give clearer instructions and context - Check claims, numbers and omissions - Turn one recurring task into a reviewed workflow ## Plan a workshop around work worth improving ### What determines the quote? Share your team size, preferred format, location, approved tools and one workflow you want to improve. These details help scope the preparation, facilitation and any follow-up. Ask for an itemised proposal so you can compare the same scope—not just a day rate. ### How should we assess the value? Choose one representative task and record a baseline before the workshop. Compare the time needed, corrections required and quality of the reviewed output afterwards. Agree who owns the next trial. Treat productivity gains as something to measure, not a promised percentage. ## Practical syllabus ### 1. Understand the modern AI workday See what current tools do well, where they struggle and how work changes. ### 2. Choose the right tool Match writing, research, document and data tasks to approved tools. ### 3. Ask for useful work Practise context, examples, constraints and output formats. ### 4. Verify before using Check sources, numbers, omissions, tone and sensitive information. ### 5. Build one reusable workflow Turn a real task into a repeatable request-review-improve loop. ## What the team takes away - Reusable request template - Human review checklist - One tested workflow - Shortlist of useful next opportunities ## Prepared delivery - Sponsor alignment call - Short participant questionnaire - Examples adapted to your work - Facilitated live practice - Digital resources - Concise facilitator summary ## Frequently asked questions ### What will our team achieve in the AI Fundamentals workshop?
