Production AI for Working Professionals
Tier 1.5 · Learn · Self-Paced Minicourse
The third path: engineering-grade judgment without writing a line of code. Five self-paced modules (about 60–90 minutes total), screen-led, with production-context storytelling from the same regulated environments where your approvals will live or break.
There is a space between "I don't understand this" and "I built this." That middle ground is where high-stakes leaders are operating now: not pretending to be engineers, but refusing to sign checks on demo theater. This minicourse is the trust bridge. It is long enough to show what production actually looks like on Azure and GCP in banking and AdTech, and short enough to finish before the next vendor cycle.
You stop performing confidence and start operating from it. The modules focus on the decisions that separate slide-deck literacy from defensible judgment: anonymized scenarios, no cosplay reel from a vendor floor.
Who this is for
Non-technical leaders in regulated industries who need to see what "done" looks like before the contract. Managers who translate between strategy and technical reality. Anyone who already took the courses and still walks out of vendor meetings Googling on the walk back, and is done pretending that pattern is sustainable.
You ask the question that makes the vendor pause. You see the gap between the demo and the live system before you sign anything.
What you get
- Five modules (~12–18 minutes each), 60–90 minutes total, sized for a full workweek, not a semester
- Walkthroughs of production-shaped scenarios, anonymized from banking and AdTech delivery (not a polished vendor reel)
- Framing around the decisions that actually separate AI literacy from boardroom theater
