The AI Architect Master Class
Designing Custom Agents to Empower Your Team and Scale Impact!
Event Details
This Master Class will be held on April 13th and 15th from 1-2:30PM both dates.
Course Overview:
Don't just use AI. Architect it. In this masterclass session, we move beyond basic prompting to build a permanent "Digital Team Member" that solves a specific operational bottleneck in your department. You do not need to come with a project idea. We will identify your highest-value opportunity together.
While a paid subscription (ChatGPT Plus or Gemini Advanced) will allow you to build persistent, secure agents that can be deployed to your team, a free account is fully supported for this course. Participants with free accounts will learn to build powerful "System Prototypes" that function similarly to agents. Whether you are looking to automate grant compliance, streamline student transfer questions, or audit syllabi for equity, you will leave this series with a working solution. You are encouraged to attend with a partner or small team from your institution to co-build your solution, but solo learners will also be fully supported.
