CARDS Days

📢 Registration is still open for Your First 90 Days with AI, starting July 23.

AI is quickly becoming a tool people use every day, but most training is either too technical or assumes prior knowledge.

This four-session course is designed to help complete beginners understand AI, write effective prompts, compare tools, and start using AI confidently in real-world situations.

Original post and registration link below ⬇️

🤖 Curious about AI but not sure where to start?

Join us for **Your First 90 Days with AI: A Beginner's Guide**, a hands-on course designed for people with little to no experience using artificial intelligence.

📅 Thursdays beginning July 23 at 6:00 PM
📍 MAC Fredericktown Outreach Center
💲 $55 for all four sessions

Over four sessions, participants will:

• Learn what AI is and how it works
• Compare popular AI platforms
• Learn how to write effective prompts
• Build practical projects for home, work, or a small business

Most AI courses are built around technical concepts and theory. This one isn't.

Unlike many AI instructors, John and Emily Wright recently went through the beginner stage themselves. That shapes everything about how they teach. The course focuses on practical applications, plain language, and real-world examples rather than technical jargon.

Whether you're curious, skeptical, or simply wondering what all the excitement is about, this course is designed to help you get started with confidence.

⚠️ Space is limited.
