AI THAT WORKS by WKWSCI Alumni Association
Most AI courses starts with the tools. This one starts with the person using them. In this 2-hour workshop, we will help you:
- Assess your AI literacy level.
- Recognise where AI can further augment your workflow and outcomes.
- Remove the daily grind with simple automations.
- Learn practical AI techniques to reduce repetitive tasks and make everyday work easier.
- Tell data stories or drive marketing with AI.
This workshop is not about replacing people with AI. It is about helping people use AI to amplify what they already bring to the table.
