Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I need a technical background to attend?

No. The workshop is designed for all learners—no coding or AI expertise required.

2. What tools or frameworks will be covered?

Core AI/ML concepts, NLP basics, LLMs (BERT, GPT), and prompt engineering techniques.

3. Is this suitable for business and non-technical teams?

Yes. The content is accessible, real-world-focused, and applicable across roles and functions.

4. Will there be hands-on exercises?

Absolutely. Participants will practice prompt creation and explore GenAI tools interactively.

5. Can this workshop be customized for our organization?

Yes. It can be tailored for leadership, developers, or cross-functional enterprise groups.

6. What is the Foundations of Generative AI Workshop and who is it designed for?

The Foundations of Generative AI Workshop is a strategic, beginner-friendly program designed to help professionals understand how Generative AI actually works, where it creates value, and how organizations should approach adoption.

It’s built for business leaders, managers, product owners, transformation teams, and non-AI specialists who need clarity,not technical depth,on GenAI. The workshop focuses on building the right mental models so participants can make informed decisions, ask better questions, and avoid costly missteps as AI becomes part of everyday work.

This is not a coding course. It’s an AI literacy and readiness program for modern enterprises.

7. Is the Foundations of Generative AI Workshop suitable for non-technical professionals?

Yes , in fact, it’s designed specifically with non-technical professionals in mind.

You don’t need a background in AI, data science, or software development. The workshop avoids equations, algorithms, and jargon-heavy explanations. Instead, it explains Generative AI using clear analogies, business scenarios, and practical examples that resonate with managers, leaders, and functional teams.

Participants leave with confidence , not because they learned how to build models, but because they finally understand what GenAI can and cannot do, and how to engage with technical teams more effectively.

8. How is this Generative AI workshop different from online Generative AI courses?

Most online courses focus on information. This workshop focuses on judgment.

Online Generative AI courses tend to:

Be tool-centric
Over-index on demos
Assume individual learning

This workshop is different. It’s interactive, contextual, and enterprise-oriented. We explore real organizational trade-offs, adoption risks, governance concerns, and change management realities.

In our experience at NextAgile, organizations don’t struggle because they lack AI knowledge , they struggle because they lack shared understanding. This workshop creates that alignment.

9. What will I learn in a Foundations of Generative AI training program?

Participants learn:

What Generative AI is (and what it isn’t)
How modern LLMs think and fail
Where GenAI creates real business value
Common myths, risks, and misconceptions
Responsible and ethical AI usage
How to evaluate AI use cases realistically
What “AI readiness” actually means for teams

The goal isn’t expertise , it’s clarity, confidence, and practical insight.

10. Does this Generative AI workshop focus on business use cases or technical implementation?

Primarily business use cases , with enough technical context to make informed decisions.

We explore how Generative AI applies to:

Knowledge work
Decision support
Customer experience
Operations
Product and service design

Technical concepts are explained only to the extent needed to understand constraints, risks, and feasibility. This keeps the workshop relevant for business audiences without oversimplifying reality.

11. Is this Foundations of Generative AI Workshop suitable for enterprise teams?

Yes. It’s explicitly designed for enterprise-scale adoption realities.

The workshop addresses:

Cross-functional alignment
Data and security concerns
Governance and policy readiness
Change management challenges
Risk and compliance considerations

This makes it suitable for large organizations exploring AI strategically , not just experimenting casually.

12. Can this Generative AI training be customized for corporate or enterprise requirements?

Absolutely.

Customization options include:

Industry-specific use cases
Function-specific examples (HR, product, ops, etc.)
Alignment with existing transformation programs
Internal policy and governance context

Customization ensures relevance , which is critical for enterprise buy-in.

13. Does this Generative AI workshop support enterprise AI governance and compliance?

Yes , governance is a core theme.

The workshop covers:

Responsible AI principles
Data usage boundaries
Human-in-the-loop decision-making
Risk awareness and mitigation
Early governance thinking (without bureaucracy)

This helps organizations adopt AI intentionally and safely, rather than reactively.

14. How does this Generative AI workshop help organizations prepare for AI adoption?

It creates organizational readiness before technical investment.

Participants gain:

Shared language around AI
Realistic expectations
Clear decision frameworks
Awareness of cultural and structural impacts

This prevents common mistakes like tool-first adoption, unmanaged experimentation, or leadership misalignment.

15. Can this Foundations of Generative AI training align with Agile or digital transformation programs?

Yes , very naturally.

Generative AI impacts:

How decisions are made
How work flows
How teams collaborate

This workshop complements Agile and digital transformations by helping leaders understand how AI changes ways of working, not just tools.

Yes.

The workshop includes cross-functional examples showing how GenAI applies beyond engineering:

Product discovery and prioritization
Talent and HR processes
Marketing content and analysis
Operations and knowledge management

This makes it ideal for mixed, cross-functional audiences.
