Our Approach to AI Transformation

Peoplecert’s made no small plans and trained 1.400 people on AI.

PeopleCert is a global leader in the assessment and certification of professional skills. When they reached out to us in May 2023, they had a clear vision that we loved: they wanted everyone in the organization to be proficient in AI.

We know that people need to find education relevant to spark a real change, so we started with an inspiration keynote to get everyone excited and aligned on a common vision. Then we identified 3 personas and designed custom trainings for each:
‍
- AI leaders: executives who needed to take strategic decisions on AI
- AI builders: product managers, heads of functions and developers who needed to design new internal and external products
- AI users: everyone else in the organization who needed to be proficient with AI

Today, Peoplecert is a true leader in AI, with industry-leading adoption rates and disrupting AI features embedded in their products.

We don't do generic "digital transformation" handwaving. We break AI adoption into practical chunks that actually make sense:

AI Adoption Program
Skill-Up your workforce across all business units.

AI Agent Bootcamp
Build actual solutions that work without the need to code.

AI Changemaker Bootcamp
Turn curious team members into AI champions.

Executive Workshops
No buzzwords, just straight talk about what works to define your strategy.

We have experience in training teams in ChatGPT, Gemini, CoPilot, Claude, etc..

Ströer: From Ad Space to AI Innovation

Who They Are
An out-of-home advertising company that creates digital and traditional media campaigns. They know how to catch eyeballs on billboards and screens.

‍The Problem
They had an idea that AI could revolutionize their ad products, but weren't sure how to turn vague potential into something their clients would actually pay for.

‍What We Did
Ran them through our AI Agent Bootcamp, which helped them turn scattered ideas into a focused product concept.

‍The Win
They built "Creative Analyzer" – an actual working product that analyzes ad effectiveness. Not just a PowerPoint about what might be possible someday.

"Our journey in AI started with an AI Academy program for the Corporate Strategy and Innovation team.

We learned how to use AI and to stay focused on our journey, so now we develop several MVPs, test them, and then if we consider them for useful, we can spread them into our organization and share them also with clients."

PeopleCert: Surviving the ChatGPT Wave

Who They Are
Project management training company with 1,400 employees who suddenly faced an existential threat when ChatGPT appeared.

‍The Problem
Their CEO saw ChatGPT and immediately thought: "This will either kill us or make us the next Amazon." Classic moment of AI panic meets opportunity.

‍What We Did
We split their workforce into three groups with tailored training:
- 30 AI Builders (mix of business leaders and technical folks) went through our Bootcamp and built 10 functional prototypes
- All employees learned practical ChatGPT skills through our AI Adoption Program
- Executives got a 2-day strategy workshop to develop an actual plan (not just empty "AI transformation" talk)

‍The Win
Instead of getting blindsided by AI, they turned it into a competitive advantage with 10 working prototypes solving real business problems.

“We always strive to become better. Our journey with AI Academy began with a digital transformation project to train 1,000 people from 43 nationalities in AI, ChatGPT, and other AI tools. We started with top management to act as ambassadors and continued with digital training for everyone.

Tech-savvy individuals from each department worked on projects to make their jobs more efficient using AI tools. This ongoing effort has led to many prototypes, some of which are already making our work easier.”

TÜV NORD: Creating Internal AI Champions

Who They Are
German technical inspection and certification company with over 150 years of history. Not exactly where you'd expect an AI revolution.

‍The Problem
After some successful AI projects, they realized the bottleneck wasn't the technology—it was having internal champions who could drive adoption.

‍What We Did
Ran our Changemaker Bootcamp focused on both AI skills and organizational change management—the human side of technology adoption that most programs miss.

‍The Win
Built a network of internal AI champions who now lead innovation across the company, ensuring their AI investments actually get used instead of collecting dust.

"AI Academy facilitated our AI journey by providing us with practical workshops and strategic guidance tailored to our needs. They enabled us to experiment with AI and effectively integrate it into our workflows.

Through their support, we were able to foster a culture of innovation and promote critical thinking across our organization, helping us stay ahead in the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Their approach has truly empowered us to leverage AI’s potential to its fullest."

Turner Construction: Building the Future

Who They Are
A major US construction company known for tackling massive building projects and infrastructure development.

‍The Problem
They wanted to see if AI could actually improve construction efficiency and safety—not just sound good in board meetings.

‍What We Did
We created a custom executive education program focused on practical AI applications in construction:
- Project management optimization
- Safety monitoring improvements
- Resource planning and allocation

We ran a compressed one-day bootcamp where their teams built working proof-of-concepts using no-code tools—showing value immediately rather than after months of development.

‍The Win
Their leadership team went from AI skeptics to champions in a matter of days, with actual prototypes showing tangible benefits for their specific industry challenges.

Ströer’s Innovation & Strategy team went from “what can AI do for us?” to a new disrupting product in weeks.

Ströer is a German leader in out of home advertising with 13k employees and revenues exceeding €1.5B. If you’ve been in Germany, chances are you’ve seen one of their billboards.

Their innovation and strategy team reached out to us to explore how AI could potentially help their organization and have some tangible outcomes, so we customized our training program to embed some applied workshops to identify opportunities and build prototypes together.

After just 4 sessions, the Stroeer team was capable to take the idea we had together from a simple prototype to a complete proof of concept they tested on the market. The result is creative analyzer: a simple automated process to help their customers get instant feedback on their creatives.

"Our journey in AI started with an AI Academy program for the Corporate Strategy and Innovation team.

We learned how to use AI and to stay focused on our journey, so now we develop several MVPs, test them, and then if we consider them for useful, we can spread them into our organization and share them also with clients."

TUV Nord brought an entire team together to build 20 AI prototypes in 8 weeks.

TÜV Nord Group is a German technical service provider with worldwide activities founded in 1869, with more than 10,000 people.

We wanted to get an entire team involved in learning about AI’s potential while building valuable AI projects together, so we enrolled a 20-people team in a custom edition of our Generative AI Project Bootcamp.

With an effort of less than 2 hours per week, everyone managed to build their own AI prototype while learning about AI and gave free space to their creativity by building valuable AI proof of concepts.

"AI Academy facilitated our AI journey by providing us with practical workshops and strategic guidance tailored to our needs. They enabled us to experiment with AI and effectively integrate it into our workflows, starting with small, manageable projects.

Through their support, we were able to foster a culture of innovation and promote critical thinking across our organization, helping us stay ahead in the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Their approach has truly empowered us to leverage AI’s potential to its fullest."
