One curriculum, six foundations

The same core skill set underpins every industry track. The order changes, the examples are yours, the foundations don't move.

Why one spine and not twelve courses

Run the task lists for an accounting practice, a physio clinic and an electrical contractor side by side and about seventy per cent of the entries are the same job wearing different clothes: explain something in writing, read something too long, turn mess into structure, say the same thing consistently forty times, and know when to stop.

So the foundations are written once and taught properly. What your industry track adds is vocabulary, the deadline that actually hurts, and the compliance line you can't cross. That's a thin layer on a solid base, which is the opposite of how most AI training is built.

The six modules

Getting output you can actually use

Why first drafts are bad and what to change. Context, examples, constraints, and the habit of rejecting the first answer. The module

Choosing your tool for the job

A rule of thumb for reaching for Claude, ChatGPT, or neither — one that survives the next release. The module

Working with long documents

Bundles, contracts, rulings, reports and plan sets. Where these tools are genuinely strong. The module

Building reusable setups

The difference between a good afternoon and lasting change. Projects, saved instructions, templates. The module

What never goes in

The never list, written for your business, plus the de-identification habit that has to survive a busy Thursday. The module

Writing your team's AI policy

One page people will actually follow, including the casual and shift-based part of your workforce. The module

How the modules get ordered

Ordering is the part that matters. A clinic with no written rule and clinicians already pasting notes into a free account does not need module one; it needs the policy and the never list, and everything else afterwards. A trade business with no compliance exposure and forty unfollowed quotes needs reusable setups on day one.

The assessment does that ordering from nine answers. It will also tell you when training is not the first thing you need, which is a genuine outcome and not a sales move.

Industry tracks

Each track applies the foundations to a specific kind of business:

Why one spine and thin industry tracks

The jobs people need AI training for are roughly the same across industries: drafting, summarising long documents, structuring messy information, client communication, reusable setups, and knowing when not to use it at all. What differs is which of those jobs dominates the week, what the compliance line is, and what the documents are called.

So the curriculum is written once and applied to your work, rather than rebuilt per industry with a noun swapped. Six foundation modules, then an industry track on top.

The practical consequence: you're not paying for a course built for someone else's industry, and you're not paying for a general course either. The modules are the same; the examples on the table are yours.

The order matters more than the list

Most AI training opens with prompt technique and loses the room. The sequence that holds: where information goes, then one real job start to finish, then the tool decision, then the setups you keep. We set out the reasoning for that order in full.

In regulated work the order changes: the boundary and the written rule come first, because training people to use a tool the business hasn't sanctioned puts the risk on them. If you're not sure which order applies to you, the assessment returns the modules sequenced for your work in about four minutes.

The questions we get asked about this

How long does the whole curriculum take?

A half day covers the foundations with hands-on time on one real job. The modules are not a fixed syllabus to get through — which ones matter, and in what order, depends on the work.

Can we do one module rather than all six?

Yes, and for some businesses that's the right call. Long documents alone is a common starting point for legal and conveyancing teams; the never list alone is a common one for clinics.

Is this for staff or for owners?

Both are in the room, and the owner needs to be there for the boundary block. Without the person who decides what's permitted, the team leaves without authority and nothing changes.

Not sure which of these you need first. The assessment asks nine questions and comes back with the modules in the right order for your work — including whether a policy should come before any training. Build your plan.
