AI basics · for businesses

An AI course for beginners at work.

A clear introduction for employees who have rarely or never used AI and ChatGPT. Time for questions and practical exercises from everyday work, explained at a pace that suits the group.

Who the beginner course is for.

For businesses that want a shared foundation before individual teams explore AI in more depth.

Employees with no previous experience

We explain the terms, controls and review steps from the beginning. Nobody needs to have used ChatGPT or gained technical experience beforehand.

Colleagues who prefer a careful introduction

We use clear steps, repeat important actions and allow enough time for questions. The learning pace follows the group’s experience.

Teams with mixed experience

Shared basics help prevent experienced users from racing ahead while others lose track. Exercises can be adjusted to different levels.

Managers who need to make informed decisions

Decision-makers learn the possibilities and limits without becoming technical specialists. Rules and responsibilities are part of the discussion from the start.

What participants learn.

Each section combines a short explanation, an individual exercise and a shared review.

01

Understand AI and ChatGPT

We explain how language models work, why answers can be wrong and which tasks are more or less suitable.

Outcome: understand the terms and limits
02

Write clear instructions

Participants describe tasks with context, objectives, format and review criteria, using examples from their work.

Outcome: clearer, more checkable answers
03

Use results responsibly

We practise fact-checking, data protection, source checking and deciding when a person needs to take over or approve the result.

Outcome: a first routine with clear checks

How we prepare the beginner course.

  1. 01

    A short planning conversation

    We discuss experience, group size, devices and typical tasks. Uncertainties and previous frustrating experiences are useful to know about too.

  2. 02

    Choose suitable examples

    We select understandable, low-risk exercises whose results participants can judge using their existing knowledge.

  3. 03

    Practise together

    Each step is demonstrated, tried and discussed. Time for questions is built in; participants do not need to keep up with a fast demonstration.

  4. 04

    Take routines back to work

    The course ends with clear rules, tested instructions and an agreed next step for the team. The material supports continued practice.

Questions about the beginner AI course

Do participants need to know ChatGPT already?

No. The course starts with the interface and basic terms. Those with some experience can receive more advanced exercises without putting beginners under time pressure.

Is the course suitable for older employees?

Yes. Learning objectives and experience matter more than age. We explain each step, allow repetition and use readable materials and familiar tasks.

Does each participant need a laptop?

A device for each participant is helpful for practical exercises. Depending on the group, working in pairs is also possible. We agree the technical preparation before the session.

Can the course take place at our workplace?

Yes. AI Værk delivers the course at your workplace or remotely. An on-site session can suit less experienced groups or teams working together on internal workflows.

What do participants take away?

They become familiar with the main terms, practise formulating simple tasks, learn to review results critically and understand which data must not enter an AI system without approval. Key routines are documented.

Not sure whether the course suits your group?

Tell us about participants’ experience and typical tasks. We recommend a pace and format that fits.
