Learn the fundamentals of AI and how it works, current capabilities and limitations, and predictions for the future of the EA role. We’ll also cover tips for success in the course.
Dive into the most powerful tools of all: AI chatbots. You’ll learn about ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, Claude, Llama and the strengths of each. Learn 100+ ways to use these tools at work, the keys to great prompt crafting and pro tips to get high value outputs fast. Understand key risks of AI right now, and the steps to take to mitigate risk at work.
In this session, we’ll dive deeper into AI chatbots, covering advanced prompting tactics, a prompt dissection, and how to use the latest AI chatbot features. We’ll also hop into breakout groups to practice what we’ve learned with real-world projects.
Hear an inspiring talk on the state of AI for work from expert guest speaker Cliff Worley. Get acquainted with the AI-enhanced tech stack for work right now including tools for project and task management, calendar, email and meetings.
Learn what AI assistants and AI agents are, how to build them and use them to save tons of time every week. We’ll also cover key tools to know now, and tips and tactics for success.
Learn how to use tools like Zapier, MS Power Automate and Make to automate admin tasks in your workflow and take your productivity to new heights. Hear top use cases and learn how to get started with your first automations.
Regroup and swap notes with your peers on what you’ve learned from the past seven weeks. Learn how to continue your learning from here, and how to step into the role of an AI change agent in your team and organization. Come away inspired to continue learning and exploring the universe of AI.
Throughout the in-person workshop you’ll put your learning into practice in small groups – testing prompts, experimenting with early AI assistant builds, and exploring practical use cases together. These collaborative exercises are designed to help you turn ideas into working solutions you can take straight back to your role.
Put everything you’ve learned into practice with a meaningful project. You’ll choose between creating an AI Playbook tailored to your role or designing a fully-working AI Assistant to support a real part of your job.

About the Instructor
Fiona Young
Founder at Carve, AI Expert & Former Executive Assistant
Fiona is the founder of Carve, the world’s leading AI learning provider for Executive Assistants and business support professionals, and a leading expert in AI tools for everyday workplace productivity.
With a background in Learning & Development and experience as an Executive Assistant herself, she deeply understands the realities of the EA and Business Support role.
Since 2022, Fiona has been dedicated to giving assistants real, practical AI superpowers. Her teaching combines clarity, warmth and hands-on demos designed specifically for support professionals.
Fiona's Ethos for Learning
With 15,000+ hours of learning design behind it, the AI Lab for Executive Support focuses on what truly moves the needle in AI skills for support professionals.
These six principles shape the entire programme.
Fiona believes in the power of peer learning, that people learn best together and from one another. Learning with others motivates you to keep going, and holds you accountable to change. We all get more out of learning when we’re able to share our own experiences, reflections and insights.
Fiona believes learning is stickiest when it happens a little at a time and often, unfolding over a period of several weeks, rather than crammed into a single week or day.
The way this course is structured gives you a chance to practice what you’ve learned in the real world, then come back together to share reflections, wins and blockers. This format helpfully also fits better into a hectic schedule like yours!
Ai Lab for Executive Support focusses on the how and how now. Forget the preamble, forget the fluff. This course gets stuck right in, giving you exercises to try right away, and leaving you with practical guides (including key learnings, tools and checklists) that you can use and reuse after the course ends.
This course is tailored for EAs, PAs and business support professionals, making it highly relevant and high value.
Fiona is passionate about creating learning experiences that make an impact, going beyond basic assessments of whether learning happened – to drill into the wider impact learning had on you, your career, your exec and your organization.
We’ve all experienced dull and outdated learning content, it’s no fun. Fiona’s signature training is fresh and cutting edge, designed to inspire the smart and savvy Assistant. It’s updated every week based on the latest headlines, launches and insight (with the pace of change in AI that’s essential!).
