Closr AI Academy

AI training workshop
for teams, faculty and students.

Closr AI Academy is the AI training practice of Closr. We run a two day, hands-on AI training workshop for employees, one team at a time: HR, finance, payroll, supply chain, customer support and more business functions, plus faculty and students. No technical background is needed.

During the training we learn your team's workflows, challenges and goals. Your people then build simple AI assistants of their own to improve their productivity, on the tool your organisation already uses: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Microsoft Copilot.

The problem

Why teams need structured AI training

Many organisations already pay for an AI tool, and employees often use it only for the occasional question. Daily tasks such as reports, replies, reconciliations and lesson plans are still done the old way.

The workshop closes that gap in two days. Participants practise on tasks they do every week, learn to check every AI output, and leave with a shared prompt library and a 30 day plan.

Five gaps the workshop works on

01

Adoption gap

AI is used for the occasional question and never becomes part of the weekly routine. Day two builds it into the team's own tasks, and the 30 day plan keeps it there.
02

Capability gap

People know AI exists but not how to apply it to their own role. Participants practise on tasks from their own function.
03

Mindset gap

Concern about job impact and a preference for familiar methods hold people back. Hands-on work with every output checked replaces guesswork with an informed view.
04

Governance gap

Without clear rules, people use unapproved tools or paste sensitive data into them. Day one covers approved tools, data that stays out and when a person must review the output.
05

Confidence gap

Staff cannot always tell a good AI answer from a poor one, so they avoid it for meaningful work. Participants learn to check sources, figures and tone before anything is used.

Curriculum

What the two day AI workshop covers

Day one teaches AI foundations to everyone in the room. Day two is built around one function, so participants work on their own tasks.

FAQ

AI workshop frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions teams and institutions ask first.

Do participants need any technical background?
No. The workshop is built for people who have never used AI at work. Every exercise uses everyday tasks from the participants' own function.
How many people can attend one workshop?
Business workshops run for up to 30 people per room or session. Education workshops run for up to 40.
Can the workshop run online?
Yes. It runs in person, or online on Zoom or Google Meet, with the same content split into shorter sessions.
Which AI tools do you teach on?
The one your organisation already uses: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Microsoft Copilot. Other tools are covered on request.
Can we mix several functions in one workshop?
Day one works for a mixed group. Day two is built around one function, so we recommend a separate workshop for each team.
Does the workshop cover building software or automation?
Participants build simple no-code AI assistants on the tool they already use, such as a custom GPT or a Claude Project. Building software, automation and integrations is outside the scope.
How long should an AI training workshop for employees be?
Two days works for non-technical teams: one day of foundations and one day on the team's own tasks. A single session rarely leaves enough time to practise on real work.
What should an AI workshop for HR or finance teams cover?
The first day covers AI foundations, writing prompts, checking output and safe use of company data. The second day uses the team's own documents and tasks, for example CV summaries and policy answers for HR, or invoice checks and variance commentary for finance.
Do you teach Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot?
Yes. We teach on the tool your organisation already pays for, so participants can apply what they learn straight away. Slack AI, Zoom AI Companion, Notion AI and Canva AI are covered on request.
Does the workshop cover AI governance and policy?
Yes, at the level every employee needs. Day one covers approved tools, what data must not be entered, when a person must review AI output, and drafting one page of team rules for AI use. Writing a company-wide AI policy or a governance framework such as ISO 42001 is outside the two days.
We already pay for AI licences. Why do we need a workshop?
A licence gives access, not habits. Most organisations roll out AI tools without trouble, and the cost shows up months later as tools that sit unused or are used the wrong way. The workshop teaches each team to use the tool on its own tasks, with every output checked.
Do you run AI workshops for universities and colleges?
Yes. We run a workshop for faculty and teachers, and one for college and university students aged 18 and over. Each uses examples from teaching and study, with clear rules on checking answers and academic integrity.
