AI isn’t replacing you — it’s upgrading you.


🤖 “There will be two types of companies in the future: those who are leading with AI, and those who are irrelevant.” - Jeetu Patel, Cisco

Hello Reader,

There’s a growing difference between people who use AI and people who think with it. That’s the difference between overwhelm and opportunity. Between playing catch-up and setting the pace.

The AI F.A.S.T. Class Series is built to bridge that gap. It’s not another theory-heavy course about “the future of work.” It’s a practical, hands-on pathway that helps you turn automation into alignment.


The FAST Pathway

Each class builds on the last, guiding you from literacy to leadership:

✏️ Foundations — Learn to prompt like a pro.
Translate fuzzy ideas into clear instructions that get results.

🧩 Applications — Build your first AI workflows.
Turn curiosity into capability and test real use cases in real time.

⚙️ Scaling — Automate what matters.
Create systems that scale your best work without losing your voice.

🧠 Thinking — Elevate your insight.
Use AI as a thought partner for creativity, analysis, and innovation.


Why it works

Because this isn’t just about tools — it’s about thinking differently.
You’ll learn to:

  • Engineer prompts that sound like you.
  • Design workflows that cut busywork in half.
  • Use AI for strategy, not just shortcuts.
  • Build confidence through practice, not theory.

It’s the same mindset shift that Atomic Habits made famous — tiny, repeatable behaviors that compound into transformation.
The difference? You’re building those habits with AI by your side.


❓ What is the AI F.A.S.T. Class Series?

It’s a four-part, hands-on training pathway that helps you turn automation into alignment.

You’ll go from learning how to write effective prompts to building full workflows and using AI as a thinking partner.

F.A.S.T. = Foundations, Applications, Scaling, Thinking.

Each session builds on the last:

  • ✏️ Foundations of AI – learn how to prompt like a pro.
  • 🧩 Applications of AI – design your first AI workflows.
  • ⚙️ Scaling with AI – automate what matters.
  • 🧠 Thinking with AI – turn insight into advantage.

❓ How much does it cost?

Each half-day workshop is $350 + GST per person. You can join all four for $1,400 + GST, and you’ll graduate with a digital badge, a credential recognised by LinkedIn and the Open Badges Protocol.
