Education · Hands-on AI training
AI training where every participant
builds a working tool
For teachers, public officials, seniors and small business owners. Our courses run end to end: at the end of the class, every participant leaves with an AI tool that actually works. A Ph.D. in Computer Science designs each course for people with no technical background.

The premise
You do not need to study AI before you use it
You can stay as you are and give your usual work to AI. That is enough to get results. Our courses end with something that works in your hands.
The problem
Many AI courses leave classrooms unchanged
The cause is a missing structure. Common watch-only courses break down at four points.
Only a demo to watch
People watch the instructor’s screen and go home without trying it even once themselves.
Everyone gets stuck at setup
Most people drop out at accounts, installation and settings. They never start what they came to learn.
It works only on the day
It worked in class. Back at their desks, nothing is left, and it does not become something they keep using.
Not our workplace
Other people’s cases and flashy demos do not fit the real work of our classroom, service counter or shop.
Why different
Four things we do differently
Every participant builds a working tool
Every participant finishes an AI tool that actually works and takes it home. The result stays in their hands after the class.
We get through setup together
Accounts and settings are the first step, and we clear it together. We plan the route so that no one stops at a hard point.
No one is left just watching
Beginner and advanced paths run at the same time, so different skill levels are covered. The level is set for non-specialists, and everyone finishes.
The learning continues after the course
What people build becomes something they keep using. We also map the next step into automation and deeper work with AI agents.
Programs
Courses for each audience
The level and the examples depend on who is learning. We run and design build-type courses for six audience groups.
Teacher training: From Watching AI to Building with It
A build-type course. Every teacher leaves with an AI tool that actually works. Designed for small schools.
AX Seed School and talks for institutions
We organized and taught the Yeongyang County AX Seed School: a course for public officials and a 2-day course for residents, with a total attendance of 100. We have also given many AI talks for leaders of institutions, including courts.

Hands-on practice with AI for daily life and work, at the level of people who are new to digital tools. It includes a course that trains senior creators. Run more than 20 times.
AI support for small business owners
We apply AI to the real work of shops, farms and small workplaces. This builds on our experience planning and running AI education in local communities.
Advanced university AI course (building agents)
An advanced curriculum where students build automation tools and AI agents themselves. It can be designed as a regular or special university course.
Free AI school for children from vulnerable households
A public-interest program being planned with Yeongyang County (target: second half of 2026).

Diagnose
We first check the audience, level, setup and time. Then we design a curriculum that fits your workplace.
Start
In the first session, participants see it work. An early, visible success builds their confidence.
Expand
Participants hand their usual work to AI, using their own real lessons and tasks.
Finish
A result they keep, and a next path into advanced courses.

Teaching principles
Start with fun, then move to work
The first session gives a visible success. That confidence carries people into using AI in their work.
Everyone finishes, no one is left out
Beginner and advanced paths run at the same time to cover skill gaps. No one stays a spectator.
Training that does not end in one day
What people make in class becomes something they keep using. We also plan the next path into advanced work with agents.

Common questions
Can people with no technical background, or older adults, keep up?
Yes. Our courses are designed at the level of non-specialists. Participants give their usual work to AI, so they get results even if they do not know computers well. We have run AI classes for seniors more than 20 times.
Participants have very different skill levels. Is that a problem?
No. We design beginner and advanced paths at the same time to cover skill gaps. Faster learners go deeper, and first-time learners get to the end. Our rule is that no one is left just watching.
Which audiences can you teach?
We design courses for each group: teachers and schools, public officials and institutions, seniors, small business owners and field workers, advanced university courses, and children from vulnerable households. Once the audience is set, we match the level and the examples to it.
We are far away. Can you come to us?
We are based in Yeongyang, North Gyeongsang Province, and have taught on site in places such as Andong, Cheongsong, Bonghwa, Uljin, Pohang and Gumi. We agree on the place and dates with you. Online sessions can be added if needed.
What do we need to prepare?
In the first check, we confirm the accounts, devices and setup you need, and we tell you in advance. Getting through setup together is the first step of every course, so no one gets stuck there.
How is the fee calculated?
It depends on the audience, group size, hours and scope. Contact us and we will send a proposal with a curriculum that fits your goal. Public-interest and local partnership programs are discussed separately.
