2 Weeks
·Cohort-based Course
Build 1–2 prototypes and package them into portfolio case studies + pitch decks you can use to advance your career or pivot into AI roles.
Course overview
The problem you face
AI is transforming every role — but it’s hard to know where to start. You don’t just need one flashy demo; you need a way to spot opportunities, build credible prototypes, and reuse that process to stay relevant in your career.
What we’ll do together
Over 2 weeks, you’ll:
- Learn how to spot and prioritize AI opportunities in your own work.
- Apply those frameworks immediately to build 1–2 working prototypes (workflow copilots, Q&A assistants, etc.).
- Package your projects into portfolio case studies + internal pitch decks you can adapt for interviews, promotions, or future ideas.
How the learning experience helps you master it
- Live workshops: I’ll demo frameworks and show how to go from idea → working demo step-by-step.
- Starter code & curated tools: so you can focus on ideas and impact, not setting up infrastructure.
- Feedback & community: Get critique on your prototype and see how peers apply the same process in their domains.
By the end, you’ll not only have career-ready projects, but also a repeatable toolkit to keep spotting, scoping, and prototyping AI solutions long after the course. Unlike free tutorials that stop at calling APIs or writing better prompt, you’ll leave with a repeatable framework to keep spotting and prototyping new AI ideas in your career.
