Generative AI: Crash course for managers

Duration: 4 hours

Participants: up to 10 people

Location: preferably in person, virtual on request

Cost: on request

An executive interacts with an AI icon in front of a dark background, illustrating the role of AI in business.

In this training course, managers gain a strategic overview of generative AI and learn about the key success factors: from effective prompting and the secure connection of their own data sources (RAG) to the essential regulatory and ethical guidelines (AI Act, data protection). This enables participants to realistically assess the potential of AI for their company and make targeted use of it.

Objective and training content

After the training, participants will be able to make informed strategic decisions about the use of generative AI. They will evaluate not only the technological potential, but also the relevant regulatory requirements and the possibilities for integrating their own data in order to manage AI initiatives in their company securely and in a value-adding manner.

Training content:

  • Basics of generative AI
    • Introduction to terminology, functionality, and relevance of generative models
    • Overview of tools, frameworks, and economic aspects
  • Text generation with LLMs and advanced prompting
    • Basics of text generation with prompt engineering techniques
    • Methods for prompt optimization
  • Regulatory and ethical frameworks
    • Best practices and guidelines for AI tools
