Becoming AI-Informed

Most AI courses focus entirely on the technical building phase—teaching you how to use tools, write complex prompts, or automate your workload. This course focuses on something far more critical: your ability to join the conversations around AI and guide the conversations with your peers, clients or colleagues.

As a coach, trainer, or learning professional, your immediate challenge isn’t learning how to build an AI application. Your challenge is understanding the technology deeply enough to hold intelligent, grounded, and ethical conversations with your clients, stakeholders, and organizations when they bring AI into their world.

This complementary program gives you the “BS filter” and the conceptual stability you need to remain a trusted advisor. You will step out of the confusion of market hype and step into calm, principled authority—enabling you to protect human-centered growth while confidently navigating the real responsibility of technology in your field.

Course Framework

• Be Curious | Perspective over Technicality
  Begin with short, clear videos designed to strip away the noise and focus on what truly matters for your practice. Listen to foundational conversations on the Viva la Coaching Podcast and explore excerpts from Coaching in the Age of AI (Springer Book) to understand how technology shifts the landscape of human development.

• Become Grounded | Entering the Dialogue with Literacy
  Before you interface with software, you need to understand what you are working with. Get a clear, non-technical introduction to Generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), and prompting basics. Learn the vital distinction between AI Coaching (automated tools) and AI in Coaching (human-led, tech-enhanced sessions) so you can answer client queries with total precision.

• Be Playful | Experiencing the Tools Firsthand
  Holding a conversation about technology requires a basic level of experiential literacy. Explore safe, sandboxed environments by interacting with dedicated coaching assistants, AI coaches or AI supervisors hosted on our secure, GDPR-compliant platform. Experiment thoughtfully with accessible spaces like Claude and NotebookLM to understand their current capabilities and limits.

• Go on a Deep Dive | Grounded Context
  Expand your vocabulary and perspective through a curated archive of resources on research, further videos, podcasts or other resources to expand your horizon and gain further expert insights. This section moves you completely past speculation and equips you with verified facts regarding how intelligent tools impact real-world coaching and learning environments.

• Stay Responsible | Acting as a Professional
  Steward Coaching must remain human-first. Conclude this foundational overview by exploring how data ethics, privacy, and compliance frameworks (like GDPR and the EU AI Act) affect daily practice. Join an international collective of serious professionals by signing the Manifesto for AI in Coaching.

What You Will Walk Away With

• An Advisor’s Vocabulary: A clear, precise layout of industry definitions, terminology, and software functions—allowing you to speak about technology clearly without needing to be an engineer.

• An Ethical Evaluation Framework: The capacity to evaluate external AI tools confidently, helping your corporate clients or individual coachees determine if a platform genuinely protects data privacy, maintains compliance, and respects the coaching relationship.

• Steady Professional Authority: The ability to answer tough questions from stakeholders regarding the future of development, human capability, and machine boundaries with calm, research-backed confidence.

Who This Is For

Professional coaches, organizational consultants, and HR learning specialists who do not want to build software, but who must understand its implications to guide their clients, secure their practices, and lead the future of the profession.
