AI at Work: The 7-Lesson System to Save 10 Hours a Week
A short, practical mini-course that teaches non-technical professionals to actually use AI at work — with any assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini), no coding required.
Description
Most people have tried AI, gotten a generic or wrong answer, and quietly gone back to doing it by hand. The problem was never you — nobody taught you how to direct the tool. This course fixes that in seven focused lessons you can do in a week or an afternoon. You learn where AI actually saves time (and where it wastes it or gets you burned), the one repeatable framework that turns vague output into expert output, and how to apply it to the four highest-leverage work jobs: writing, summarizing/researching, analyzing, and planning. Then you build a reusable prompt-template library so you never start from a blank box, and you lock in the trust-and-privacy habits that keep AI a career asset instead of a liability. It's model-agnostic, honest about AI's limits, and comes with a 30-prompt fill-in-the-blank template library and a companion workbook you fill in as you go.
