​🛡️ AI Safety Essentials: Protecting Yourself, Your Data & Your Work

A hands-on, 60-minute workshop that teaches you how to use AI tools safely, protect your personal and work data, and spot AI-powered scams before they cost you.

AI is now part of daily life and work, but most of us were never taught how to use it safely. This session cuts through the fear and the hype, so you leave with practical, plain English habits that protect your data, your identity, and your job, no tech background required.

👥 Who Should Attend
Anyone who uses (or feels nervous about) AI tools at work or at home. Perfect for career-changers, small business owners, nonprofit staff, and anyone who's ever paused and wondered, "wait, is it safe to type that into ChatGPT?"

💻 Hands-On
Bring a laptop with a free AI chatbot open (ChatGPT, Copilot, or Gemini). You'll test real prompts live, play "Safe or Not Safe?" as a group and walk through an actual scam scenario together.

🎁 What You'll Walk Away With
✅ Your own copy of the "5 Golden Rules for AI Safety" checklist
✅ A simple 3-step habit: Pause → Verify → Confirm for catching AI scams
✅ The confidence to use AI at work without accidentally leaking sensitive data
