Generative AI Bootcamp

08 October 2024

Learn how to effectively use AI in your workplace by building your AI Literacy.

HOW TO APPLY

This AILiteracy series gives you the tools to unlock real value from GenerativeAI, moving from basic prompt crafting to full-scale automation. In the Level 1 session, you’ll learn how to shape clear, effective prompts that get better results from AI, setting the stage for more advanced use cases. By Level 2 you’ll be creating reusable prompts and automating everyday workflows to save time and boost team efficiency. The final Level 3 session dives into automating entire processes, freeing up time for higher-level strategic work

This course empowers you to streamline tasks, enhance productivity, and make Generative AI a part of your daily operations.

Level 1: Better Prompting (9am - 11am, online)

  • Goal:Teach participants how to craft more effective prompts, moving from basic requests to more sophisticated, goal-oriented prompting.
  • Content:
    • Basic prompting techniques: Summarizing, answering questions, and simple tasks.
    • Understanding the components of a strong prompt: audience, goal, task, success metrics.
    • Practical exercises: Participants will improve real-world prompts using these elements.
  • Learning Outcomes:
    • Participants will develop the skills to construct clear and concise prompts that deliver better results from AI systems.


Level 2: Writing GPTs and Building Efficiency (9am - 1pm, in-person)

  • Goal: Enable participants to build prompt libraries and generate repeatable AI processes.
  • Content:
    • Writing reusable GPT prompts for specific functions.
    • Creating templates for team use and automating basic workflows.
    • Leverage AI to generate more complex outputs like reports, summaries, and insights.

  • Practical Exercises:
    • Participants will write prompts for their work contexts, building prompt libraries that can be shared within their teams or departments.
    • Hands-on group activities focused on refining prompts based on feedback.
  • Learning Outcomes:
    • Participants will be able to create and refine AI-powered workflows, increasing efficiency in common tasks.

Level 3: Automating Workflow and Scaling AI (9am - 1pm, in-person)

  • Goal: Help participants stack AI tasks to create automated end-to-end processes.
  • Content:
    • Introduction to task stacking: How to use AI to handle multiple tasks at once.
    • Automating entire workflows from data entry to report generation.
    • Calling multiple GPTs in one chat to streamline different processes simultaneously.
    • AI as a strategic tool: Implementing AI-driven solutions for repetitive and labour-intensive tasks.
  • Practical Exercises:
    • Participants will design AI workflows specific to their roles, from start to end, automating daily tasks using stacked GPTs.
  • Learning Outcomes:
    • Participants will leave with the ability to design automated workflows that reduce manual intervention, freeing up time for higher-level strategic work.
