WorkshopsTeach your people
Teach your people
to hand the right jobs to AI.
Hands-on workshops for business teams, schools and organisations. Your people learn on their own work, with the tools they already have.
Every workshop starts with one question:
what's on your team's plate?
The jobs you pay someone else for
First drafts, simple design, transcripts, research. Some of it your team can now do in-house.
The jobs that never happen
The follow-up, the weekly summary, the SOP nobody wrote. Finally done.
For business teams
Claude, ChatGPT and the tools around them, learned on your real work.
$2,197 inc GSTTeam pilot. Up to 10 people.
- One real use case from your business, agreed before the day
- One workflow built and run together, supervised
- A one-page team playbook to keep
- Prep call beforehand and a short follow-up after
It teaches your team. It doesn't connect systems, build software or include an AI Audit. Want it built and running for you? That's Marcus or Ground Up.
What we teach
- Finding the jobs. Which jobs on your team's plate are worth handing to AI first.
- Briefing it like a new starter. Context, examples and what good looks like.
- Checking its work. Where AI gets things wrong, how to spot it, and when a human makes the call.
- Working with your own files. Projects, saved instructions, documents and meeting notes, so it knows your business.
- The wider toolkit. Tools for notes, voice, research and images: what's worth paying for and what to skip.
- Your ground rules. What never goes into an AI tool, client privacy, and a simple team policy.
- Building one workflow together. One real task, start to finish, run by your team while we help.
For schools and organisations
AI professional development for teachers and staff.
Ask usPriced per school or organisation.
- Staff PD session for teachers or staff
- Student workshops: Smart, Not Shortcuts (up to 70 students a session)
- A take-home guide for staff and students
An honest grounding: what AI is good for, where it goes wrong, and how to use it without cutting corners on privacy or integrity. Every teacher gets a session record with the hours and the teaching Standards it relates to, ready for their NESA PD log.
What we teach: staff PD
- What AI actually is. What it can and can't do, and why it sounds confident when it's wrong.
- Taking the load off. Planning, differentiation, first-draft feedback, emails and admin, with the teacher's judgement on top.
- Integrity in a world with AI. Designing tasks for students who already have these tools.
- Privacy and student information. What never goes in, within your school's AI policy.
- One thing to use on Monday. A workflow each person tries in the room and takes back to their work.
What students learn: Smart, Not Shortcuts
- The fork in the road. Shortcut or learning companion. Same tool, two very different students.
- Learn better. Ask AI to explain, give examples, quiz them and give honest feedback.
- Stay safe. Privacy, made-up answers, academic integrity and teacher-approved use.
- Apply it. A study workflow they can use on their next assessment.

Clear rules.
We never use private client, staff or student information. Every session covers what doesn't go into an AI tool and why. In schools, it's built around academic integrity and teacher-approved use. It never replaces anyone's judgement, and it never teaches students to hand in AI work as their own.
Questions.
Do we need paid AI accounts?
It works best when your team already has accounts for the tool you use at work. We'll tell you exactly what you need on the prep call, and there's nothing to buy from us.
Where do you run it?
In person, at your office or school, across Sydney. Ask us about anywhere else.
Is our information safe?
Yes. We use made-up or approved examples, and part of every session is setting the rules for what your team never puts into an AI tool.
Is this part of your AI packages?
No. A workshop teaches your people. If you want AI built and running inside your business, that starts with The AI Audit.
Does it count towards teacher PD?
NESA asks teachers to log 100 hours of professional development in each maintenance period to keep their accreditation. Every teacher gets a session record with the hours and the Standards it relates to, ready for their log. It's up to each teacher and school how they record it.
Is Smart, Not Shortcuts about stopping cheating?
It's about judgement. Students are already using AI. The program shows them how to use it to learn better, with integrity intact, and gives the school a clear position to share with parents.
