Understand how AI actually works
LLM architecture, tokens, context windows, model differences — enough to make real decisions, not just parrot vocabulary.
Cohort starts 15 October 2026 · Onboarding now open
A 12-week hands-on coaching programme for project managers. Learn Claude, ChatGPT and Copilot properly. Build production-ready AI agents. Keep everything you build.
Most project managers are still doing manually what AI can do in minutes. Status reports. Stakeholder updates. Risk reviews. Meeting prep. The PMs building real AI capability now will not be scrambling when it becomes a baseline expectation.
AI fluency is becoming part of the job requirement. You don't need another certification full of theory. You need to build — in your own workflow, with your own data, with someone who reviews what you produce.
What you'll leave with
By week 12 you won't have certificates on a shelf. You'll have a working AI solution built on your own use case, and the fluency to build the next one yourself.
LLM architecture, tokens, context windows, model differences — enough to make real decisions, not just parrot vocabulary.
Advanced patterns for status reports, risk logs, stakeholder updates, and executive summaries that actually sound like you.
With proper guardrails, security, governance and memory — not demo toys that break the moment someone real uses them.
Jira, Slack, Notion, Confluence, Azure DevOps, Teams — connected once, working across every session.
Move from "I built a thing" to "my team uses it every week" with hosting, monitoring and responsible-use patterns.
The AI Project Canvas, CRISP-DM for PMs, ethics frameworks, and experiment-driven sprints for managing uncertainty.
07 · Your final project
An industry-specific AI solution. Built by you. Reviewed by us. Yours to keep.
Whether you work in supply chain, finance, healthcare, IT, construction, government or consulting — your final project is built on a real use case from your world. You demo it on week 12. You walk away with the solution, the documentation, and a portfolio-ready video.
Choose your path
You pick during 1:1 onboarding with Kemi. Not sure which is right for you? That's what onboarding is for.
Build AI fluency without writing a line of code.
For PMs who want AI capability but don't want to learn Python. You'll use professional AI platforms and no-code builders to produce the same kind of working solutions.
Most popular track for senior PMs, programme managers, and delivery leads.
Get into the code and understand what's happening under the hood.
For PMs who want to build agents at the code level. Python, APIs, orchestration frameworks, deployment pipelines. You'll own the full stack.
Best for PMs moving toward AI product management, technical PMOs, or delivery consulting.

Why this cohort
From the first cohort
Project managers from London, New York and Canada took part. Everyone applied AI to their own work, so everyone left with something different.
"It is very helpful if you don't understand AI and how to use it at work in an effective manner. It is very worth it and you are hands on so it's not just theoretical."
"Excellent delivery and structure, good content compared to others I have seen in the market."

Module 1 live session: recap and what's next
Created a custom GPT and now uses it in their day-to-day work.
Took on higher responsibility at work and reduced the friction between them and the engineering teams.
Same programme, different starting points. Each person built for the work they actually do.

Who's teaching this
I've delivered complex programmes across multiple organisations including Microsoft, Amazon, Apple and Heineken. Every week I publish what I'm learning about applying AI to real project management work — and tens of thousands of PMs now follow that work on LinkedIn.
This cohort is the structured version. Small group. Hands-on. Built around doing and not watching. I personally onboard every participant with a 1:1 call before the programme starts.
