Webinar: Using AI Gems to build training materials
Date: 17 March at 10:00 CET 

Imagine designing a training course in seconds using best-practice teaching techniques. In this interactive webinar, David will demonstrate how to create your own personalised AI GEMS (bespoke AI-programmes) that can produce learning tools based on any content you provide, whether it’s a course outline, an article you wrote, or content you find inspiring. 

You’ll learn how to: 

      • Create personalised AI GEMS for producing training materials 

        • Write effective AI prompts (instructions for what you want AI to do) 

          • Refine prompts to improve AI output 

            • Transform any text or article into structured learning tools 

          The AI provides structure while journalists provide the expertise and content. This is not about AI replacing journalism, it’s about journalists harnessing AI to better inform audiences and create effective training materials. Register below to get the link.
