An example blind-spot map: habits sorted into grows, adds up and costs every time, with the one to fix first.

A free AI course that starts with your own habits

What you’ll be able to do by the end:

  1. 1Sort everyday AI habits by whether their cost grows over time, adds up with use, or stays the same each time, and give the reason.
  2. 2Decide whether a piece of work information can go into an AI tool, using a three-second check, and give the reason.
  3. 3Rewrite a bare request so the AI asks for what it needs and knows what a good result looks like.
  4. 4Ask an AI which parts of its answer most need checking, then check one claim against its source before using it.
  5. 5Write a when–then plan that names one fix, its cue, and when you’ll first use it.

The moment it clicks

“Some AI habits cost a little every time. Some quietly grow.”

The rule you’ll keep

Find the one to fix first, and fix it today.

General training, not advice. Follow your organisation’s policies. What the course is, and isn’t.

Questions people ask first

Is it really free?

Yes. Create an account, confirm your email and it’s yours. No card, no trial that runs out. The other ten modules are paid, and nothing is charged unless you ask for them.

Do I need to know anything about AI?

No. It starts with habits you’ll recognise from any AI tool, and every try-it works in whatever tool you already use: Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude or another.

Will I have to put work information into an AI tool?

No. Every exercise uses invented or public examples, and one of the first things it teaches is a three-second check for what’s safe to share.

What happens after?

You get your blind-spot map and a one-page report you can keep or share. If you want to go further, the map shows which modules go furthest on the habits it found. There’s no sales call.

Twenty minutes from now, you’ll know your AI blind spots

Free, on your phone or desktop. Your account is ready as soon as you confirm your email.
