Practical AI training

Learn to use AI for the work you actually do.

Practical AI training for students, professionals, business owners and teams. Learn to write clearer prompts, work with tools like ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot, and apply what you learn to a task you already do.

The task

Summarise this month's sales spreadsheet for my manager.

The context

She isn't technical. She wants the three biggest changes, in one short paragraph.

The check

Do the totals match the sheet? Is anything important missing?

Every session starts with a real task, like this one.

learners trained across AI, data analysis and project management, including business owners, executives, managers and early-career professionals.

How the teaching works

We start with a task, not a tool.

Analysing a spreadsheet, drafting a report, preparing a presentation: you bring the work, and we work through it together.

  1. Describe the task clearly

    Say what you need in a way that leaves little room for guessing.

  2. Give AI the context it needs

    Who it's for, what matters, what to leave out, and what a good answer looks like.

  3. Check the result before you use it

    Learn to spot common mistakes and decide whether the output is good enough.

For organisations

Training for your team

Workshops built around the work your people already do. Tell me about your team and what you want them to be able to do, and I'll come back to you with a plan.

70+

colleagues trained in Microsoft Copilot, from frontline staff to senior management.

Your instructor

Emmanuel Tobore

I'm a mechanical engineer, project engineer and founder of Hewrites Academy. Managing projects across multiple sites has taught me how to turn a broad request into clear instructions someone can act on.

I bring that same approach to teaching AI. We start with a task you already do, break it down, and work through how to get a result you can use.
