Instructor-led 4-days

In the rapidly evolving landscape of 2026, “using AI” is no longer a competitive advantage—mastering AI workflows is. This intensive 4-day course moves beyond basic prompt-and-response interactions to transform both Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot into a seamless extension of your professional capabilities.

Participants will dive deep into both the Gemini 3 ecosystem and the Microsoft Graph, exploring the nuances between the high-speed Flash models and the high-reasoning Ultra and GPT-5 based architectures. The curriculum is built on the principle of “Augmented Intelligence,” where the goal isn’t just to generate text, but to build autonomous systems, “Gems,” and “Copilot Agents” that handle the “drudge work” of modern professional life.

What Makes This Course Different?

• Live Ecosystem Integration: We work directly inside both Google Workspace (Docs, Gmail, Drive) and Microsoft 365 (Teams, Outlook, Excel).
• Agentic Thinking: You will learn to build a library of specialized AI Experts using both Gems and Copilot Studio.
• The 2026 Toolkit: This course covers Deep Research, NotebookLM, Google Opal, and Microsoft Power Automate.
• Hands-On Priority: Every module concludes with multiple “Build-Along” labs to ensure immediate ROI.
