Best fit

For employees and teams that need AI confidence, shared rules, and safer first steps.

Use Foundations when the team needs alignment before AI usage spreads in different directions.

Uneven AI awareness

Some people are using AI every day while others are unsure where to start.

Inconsistent or unapproved use

Teams need clearer expectations on privacy, source review, and sensitive information.

Practical examples are missing

People need examples tied to actual business work, not abstract AI demos.

Leadership needs a readout

The session surfaces concerns, readiness, common questions, and the right next step.

What you get

A practical AI baseline, plus a clear read on what should happen next.

Foundations is intentionally lightweight. It gives broad teams enough shared context to use AI more safely and gives leadership a cleaner view of where the team is ready, confused, or blocked.

AI QuickStart Guide

A concise leave-behind covering practical AI concepts, failure modes, prompting basics, and review expectations.

Prompt starter pack

Reusable examples for summaries, drafts, analysis, meeting follow-ups, SOPs, customer responses, and internal communication.

Safe-use checklist

Simple rules for privacy, sensitive data, source review, accuracy checks, and when to get approval.

Q&A and concern summary

A short summary of what the team asked, where they seem ready, and where leadership may need to clarify expectations.

Session flow

Two hours focused on useful, safe, repeatable AI basics.

01

What AI can and cannot do

Demystify generative AI, common workplace use cases, and where AI output needs human review.

02

Prompting and review basics

Teach practical prompting, context, iteration, output review, and hallucination checks.

03

Safe-use boundaries

Clarify privacy, sensitive data, customer information, approval boundaries, and what not to put into AI tools.

04

Examples, Q&A, and next step

Use practical business examples, capture concerns, and recommend whether the team should move into Workflow or another path.

Boundaries

Foundations is training, not implementation.

Foundations does not include department workflow mapping, custom workflow buildout, tool setup, connector configuration, custom policy development, production automation, agents, or implementation work.

Included One prep call, light customization, live session, leave-behinds, and next-step summary.
Not included Custom software, production automation, agent buildout, integrations, or broad rollout.
Best next move Move into Workflow when one team is ready to apply AI to actual work.

After Foundations

Use the baseline to decide what should happen next.

Foundations can be enough for broad awareness, but it often reveals a stronger next step: a Workflow workshop for one department, Executive AI Activation for leaders, AI Compass for company-wide prioritization, or implementation work when a clear use case emerges.

FAQ

Common Foundations questions.

Is this for technical teams?

No. Foundations is designed for mixed business audiences that need practical AI fluency, not technical implementation training.

Can it be virtual?

Yes. Foundations can be delivered in person or live virtual, with light customization around the audience and company context.

Do participants need laptops?

It depends on how hands-on the session should be. Teric can confirm the best setup during prep.

What should we prepare?

Bring the audience list, approved AI tools, policy or security guidance, and a few common work examples the team wants help with.
