Discovery paths

Three self-guided paths to build your AI skills.

Explore is live!

The Explore path is open now. The other two go live in the early weeks of the program — Build in Week 2 and Create in Week 3.

Beginner

Explore

Use AI Confidently

Who it’s for: Anyone new to AI or who wants to be more intentional about it. No prerequisites.

What you’ll be able to do:

  • Move between AI models and see how the same prompt lands differently
  • Use AI to get better at AI — have it ask questions, write your prompts, and review your sessions
  • Tell what an AI can do from its tools — strong with documents, unreliable with spreadsheets
  • Get AI to sharpen your thinking instead of generating from scratch
  • Recognize AI's pull toward validation — and why asking it to 'be honest' won't fix it
  • Save the prompts you reuse and run them from a personal library — one click or a / command away

Build

Build with AI

Who it’s for: Ready to move from using AI to building with it. Explore path experience helpful. If you've completed Explore, focus on the agents.

What you’ll be able to do:

  • Understand what agents are and how they differ from direct model conversations
  • Write effective system prompts
  • Design and build a working agent that solves a real problem at your organization
  • Test with real users and improve based on what you learn
  • Use MCPs (Model Context Protocols) and agent templates
  • Share what you built so other organizations can learn from it

Create

Code with AI

Who it’s for: Developers, power users, and anyone with strong technical comfort. Build experience is ideal — or equivalent AI development experience.

What you’ll be able to do:

  • Build sophisticated agents with external integrations
  • Use CLI-based AI tools for programmatic access
  • Connect AI to external data sources and APIs
  • Push beyond what the platform alone can do
  • Handle real-world edge cases and failure modes
  • Build code-level tools that extend AI's reach in your organization

Coming week 6

Start with Explore — it's live now. Build and Create go live as the program opens.

You'll be able to change paths anytime once they're live.
