AI for non-technical teams: a practical introduction

For teams in operations, administration, marketing and customer support: anyone who works with tools every day but doesn't write code. We show what AI can really do in your work, where it helps and where it doesn't, and how to use it without feeling overwhelmed.

Most AI training is for developers. This one isn't.

  • AI assistants have become serious workplace tools
  • Most teams use them now and then, without rules, so results are inconsistent
  • Without structure you waste time on poor prompts and miss what really helps
  • We work on your everyday tasks, not generic examples

For teams that use tools, not write code

Operations
Process documentation, reports, suppliers, schedules.
Administration and office
Writing, editing, summarising and organising.
Marketing
Content drafts, social posts, email campaigns, research. AI gives you a starting point, not a finished text.
Customer support
Replies to customers, case summaries, knowledge base.
HR
Job descriptions, job ads, internal communication, surveys, onboarding materials. AI speeds up the paperwork, people check it.
Any other team that doesn't code
Finance, sales, project management, training, legal support. We tailor the content to your field and tasks.

After the workshop your team has

  1. Prompt templatesThree templates we build together, for tasks you do every week.
  2. Team rulesAn agreement on which tools you use, which data you may share and when a result needs checking.
  3. A shared prompt libraryTemplates for the whole team, as a PDF and a spreadsheet.
  4. A personal planEach participant leaves with three concrete things to apply this week.

What AI is, what it isn't and where it helps you

An honest look at today's AI tools, without hype and without doom.

  • The main AI assistants: how they differ
  • What AI is good at: text, structure, analysis, drafts
  • What AI is bad at: calculation, current facts, complex judgment
  • Where it saves time and where it wastes it
  • Privacy: what you may and may not share with public AI tools

Rules: EU AI Act and GDPR

Short and concrete: what the law expects from a team using AI. Since 2 February 2025, Article 4 of the EU AI Act requires deployers, i.e. companies that use AI at work, to take measures that support the AI literacy of their people. The article was amended in July 2026 by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744.

  • EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689): what it means for a non-technical team and the AI literacy obligation (Art. 4)
  • GDPR in everyday work: which data must never go into public AI tools
  • Anonymising before input: what to keep and what to remove
  • Public AI tools vs. business versions with a data processing agreement (DPA)
  • A basic compliance record worth keeping in the team

Better prompts: structure, context and refining

This is the biggest step: from one-line prompts to structured prompts that give reliable results.

  • Prompt structure: role, task, context, format, constraints
  • Reusable templates: we build three together
  • How to explain your work to AI
  • Refining: tightening, expanding and narrowing the result
  • Output formats: tables, lists, formal letters, summaries

Practice: AI in your everyday work

The main part. Each participant brings 1 to 2 real (anonymised) tasks and we rework them with AI.

  • Writing and editing: emails, reports, proposals, summaries
  • Analysis: from data to conclusions, tidying notes, comparing options
  • Research: gathering information, summarising long texts, comparing sources
  • Communication: translation, tone, adapting to the audience
  • Repetitive tasks: what AI can take over

AI agents and automation, an introduction

What's possible beyond simple prompts: AI agents that handle tasks in several steps. We show examples, without technical setup.

  • How an AI agent differs from a single prompt
  • Examples: scheduled reports, multi-step research, automatic drafts
  • How agents fit with the tools you already use
  • When you need us and when you don't

Rules for using AI in your team

The team agrees on basic rules: which tools you use, when, how you share data safely and how results stay consistent.

  • Agreed AI tools
  • Data rules: what may be shared and what may not
  • A shared prompt library
  • Quality control: when to check, when to trust
  • How to keep the rules up to date

Questions and your plan

An open conversation about your situations. Each participant leaves with a personal plan: three concrete things for this week.

  • A personal plan for each participant
  • Three first uses for your role
  • A prompt library to take home (PDF and spreadsheet)
  • Further advice if needed

Half a day, tailored to your team

4 hours

Enough to go deep, and it fits between morning and afternoon work.

4 to 12 participants

Small enough for everyone to get attention, large enough for good practice to spread through the team.

Online or at your premises

Online is just as hands-on, not a lecture. We come to you anywhere in Croatia and the region.

Croatian or English

Materials and discussion in the language that suits you, mixed if needed.

Date
Arranged with your team
Price
Depends on team size and whether we work online or at your premises. We send a clear quote.

Experience from many different lines of work

Good to know

We've all tried AI tools. What's different here?

Most people use AI at random and get inconsistent results. Your team gets structured techniques, shared templates and procedures that give a reliable result.

How much does it cost?

Larger teams get a lower price per person.

What if some people on the team already use AI well?

Great, they will help raise the level of the workshop. We adapt the depth to the group: beginners catch up quickly and more advanced people pick up structured techniques.

Do we need tools or accounts beforehand?

We recommend each participant has an account with an AI assistant; the free version is enough. A week before, we email which one to use and how to prepare. Nothing else is needed.

Can we do it for one department only?

Yes, and it's usually more useful then, because we focus only on your tasks. We have adapted it for HR, marketing, operations and customer support.

Is there a follow-up after the workshop?

Yes. Some teams want one or two hours of follow-up 4 to 6 weeks later to refine prompts and harder procedures. Others want advice on a specific automation. Both are possible.

Not sure what fits your team?

Fill in a short questionnaire (3 minutes) about how you work. We will get back to you with a concrete recommendation: a workshop, consulting, or the conclusion that you do not need AI yet.
