Read every module. Free. No sign-up.
The full Tier 0 self-paced course, public on the web. Each module is short (15 to 45 minutes) and ends with a knowledge check. Tier 0 is the activation layer for companies that do not have a CTO, CIO, CISO, or internal AI owner. Plain English. Practical. Safe.

Get the shape of what you're about to learn so the rest of the course makes sense.
What AI is (and is not)
Learner produces a one-paragraph plain-language description of how AI is being used in their own department today.
25 minutesWhat AI is good for
Learner identifies three practical daily-use opportunities specific to their role, plus one role-adjacent opportunity they could route to a teammate.
25 minutesWhat AI should not touch
Learner rejects three sample prompts that would expose customer or financial data, and explains why.
30 minutesHow to ask AI for useful work
Learner writes one role-specific business prompt that a manager judges useful.
30 minutesHow to review AI output
Learner identifies three review failure modes (factual error, hallucinated source, format drift) in sample AI output.
25 minutesYour first safe AI use case
Learner submits one safe first use case co-signed by manager.
30 minutesExit routing instrument
10-item routing instrument. Not gating. Populates the sponsor report's Tier 1 candidate list with evidence rather than facilitator hunch.
15 minutesThe self-paced course is the warm-up. The workshop is the activation.
The Tier 0 workshop runs 4 or 6 hours and replaces self-paced for the attending team. Manager co-signature on the AI Baseline Worksheet makes the use case real.
