AI Training for Creatives
Who are these AI training workshops and courses for?
Our public online workshops are introductory workshops for creatives
– who are keen to integrate AI into their practice in some form (even if just via marketing)
– who know nothing about AI and want to understand this technology better and make good choices
– who are fearful and avoiding engaging but feel it’s important to know about AI for safety reasons.
You’ll learn how to create innovative content, analyse the tools to do that, and ensure you deliver it in a way that keeps your authentic perspective and protects your work and brand.
We want to help you generate new realities and positively change yourself, your practice, and the world around you. This will help you build resilience during rapid and disruptive change.

AI is changing the creative world
“I was very very impressed, not only with the content, which ended up to be very relevant to me personally, but also because [AwhiWorld tutor’s] made the day thoroughly interesting, diverse, relevant and fun. Importantly too, [they] gave us the space to talk about it in our own contexts and draw conclusions ourselves.”

“I was sceptical at first with the potential of using AI. After the workshop I came away thinking that even though it is a big scary monster that’s impacting the world in so many ways, It has both positive and negative effects. I learnt that at a community level AI can be a beneficial tool that we can use to progress outcomes faster and perhaps more efficiently.”
