Tier 1 - Generative AI Prompting Workshop
Length: 2 hours
Price: $250/seat (public cohort) · $450 in your business (+travel)
Format: Virtual live via Zoom, Teams, or in person
What it is
Most teams struggle with AI not because of the tools, but because they ask the wrong questions.
This workshop gives you a practical system for getting consistent, high-quality output from AI without guesswork. Instead of relying on vague role prompts, you’ll learn a structured approach that produces predictable, reusable results across real business tasks.
We teach the DOCCS framework:
- Deliverable: what you actually need
- Objective: what success looks like
- Context: what the model needs to know
- Constraints: what it must avoid
- Success Criteria: how to judge the output
You’ll apply this live to real use cases like emails, research, and data analysis, so you leave with prompts you can actually use.
This course is interactive, not just lecture. We will conduct hands-on prompting exercises and use real-world examples on the fly.
What you leave with
- A repeatable system for writing high-performing prompts
- A clear understanding of why prompts under-perform and how to fix it
- Ready to use prompts tailored to your workflows
- Hands on experience applying AI to real tasks, not toy examples
Who it’s for
Anyone using AI for writing, analysis, or drafting who is getting inconsistent or low-quality results and wants a more reliable way to work. No technical background required.
Tier 1 - AI for Business: Tools, Tiers, and Tradeoffs
Length: 2 hours Price: $250/seat (public cohort) · $450 in your business (+travel)
Format: Virtual live via Zoom, Teams, or in person
What it is
Most teams adopt AI without making the decisions that actually matter: which tools to use, what tier is appropriate, and how to manage risk.
This workshop fixes that.
In two hours, you’ll learn how to evaluate the major AI platforms, understand what you’re paying for, and put the minimum governance in place to use AI safely in a business environment.
We break down where the real differences are between tools, what exists beyond the chat interface, and the common mistakes that lead to wasted spending or unnecessary risk.
What you leave with
- A working understanding of the Big 4 AI platforms — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot — and which one fits which job
- The free / paid / enterprise tier distinction explained in language that holds up under scrutiny: which tier trains on your data, which doesn’t, and which is required for client work
- A three-tier data classification model — Low / Medium / High Risk — based on the consequences of escape, not the source of creation
- The baseline governance every business should have in place before AI tools become part of daily work
Who it’s for
Leaders and operators responsible for choosing AI tools, or teams already using AI informally who need to standardize their approach and reduce risk.
Tier 2 - Half-Day Workshop
Length: 4 hours (consecutive) Price: $450/seat (public cohort) · $650 in your business (+travel) Format: Virtual live via Zoom, Teams, or in person
What it is
A combined session that covers both core capabilities: how to get high-quality output from AI, and how to choose and use the right tools safely.
We run Prompting (DOCSS) first, followed by Tools, Tiers, and Tradeoffs. The result is a single, continuous system rather than two disconnected workshops.
Why combine them
Most teams get stuck in one of two ways:
- They write strong prompts, but use the wrong tools or tiers
- They choose the right tools, but get inconsistent, low-quality output
This session solves both problems at once.
By the end, your team understands not just how to use AI, but how to use it correctly in context. You cover both sides of the practical equation:
- What should we use?
- How should we use it?
What you leave with
- A repeatable prompting system (DOCSS) applied to real business tasks
- Clear guidance on which AI tools and tiers fit your use cases
- A working approach to data risk (Low / Medium / High) tied to real decisions
- Baseline governance your team can implement immediately
- Shared standards so your team works consistently, not ad hoc
Who it’s for
Teams that want to get everyone aligned on AI in a single half-day, instead of splitting training across multiple sessions or leaving adoption to chance.
Tier 3 - Governance Workshop
Length: 8 hours, delivered as two 4-hour sessions one week apart
Price: $1,000/seat (public cohort, capped at 20) · $1500 in your business (+travel)
Format: Virtual live via Zoom, Teams, or in person
Built for the person responsible now responsible for AI
Most SMBs don’t have an AI lead. They have someone who got handed AI.
A partner. An office manager. An IT director. A compliance lead.
Now you’re responsible for figuring out:
- What tools are allowed
- What data can be used
- What risk the business is taking on
- Why AI isn’t producing meaningful ROI
This workshop is designed for that role.
Across two sessions, you build the foundation of an AI governance program and leave with the core documents your business needs to operate safely and consistently.
The operating principle
AI governance is a function, not a one-time task.
A static policy doesn’t hold up against tools that change quarterly and teams that adopt them informally.
You don’t just leave with documents. You leave with a working model for maintaining and evolving them as your environment changes.
What you leave with - five working documents
-
AI Tool Inventory & Approved Use Registry
A live record of every AI tool in use, who uses it, what it can access, and whether it’s approved -
Acceptable Use Policy
Clear, enforceable rules for employees, written in plain language -
Data Classification Quick Reference
A one-page guide your team can actually use before putting client or internal data into AI tools -
AI Risk Assessment
A structured risk register (Excel) and summary (Word), aligned to how larger frameworks (NIST, ISO) approach assessment -
Onboarding & Offboarding Procedure
The AI-specific controls added to your existing employee lifecycle processes
These are built during the workshop. You leave with usable drafts, not templates.
(If you want fully reviewed, production-ready versions, see the AI Governance & Assessment service. Workshop participants can upgrade at a reduced rate.)
What’s included beyond the sessions
- 1-page expectations brief before Day 1
- Pre-work intake form to tailor the workshop to your environment
- Cohort channel for ~3 weeks after Day 2 for follow-up questions
- One 30-minute 1:1 follow-up call per participant
Who it’s for
The person accountable for AI in the business.
Typically a partner, owner, COO, IT director, compliance lead, or office manager.
Not designed for AI specialists or deeply technical staff. Most of them are already operating beyond this baseline.

How a workshop actually feels
Role is optional. Structure is not.
That’s the sticky takeaway from the Prompting Workshop — the seven-word version of why DOCCS works and why role-prompting doesn’t. Every workshop has a line like this. They’re not slogans. They’re the part of the workshop people quote to a colleague three weeks later when they’re trying to remember what the training actually said.
