Who this is for

Central Florida has a wide range of industries using (or trying to use) AI: healthcare, hospitality, logistics, nonprofits, professional services, real estate, and local government. Most teams are somewhere between "we've dabbled with ChatGPT" and "we know we need a plan but don't know where to start."

These workshops are built for that gap. Practical, educational, applied sessions that give your team real skills without requiring IT resources or a big budget.

Workshop topics available

For teams who want to start using AI but feel overwhelmed. Realistic use cases, safe habits, and a clear next step.

Validation habits, safer data handling, and review rules. The skills your team needs to use AI without creating new problems.

Stop guessing at prompts. Repeatable patterns for drafts, summaries, SOPs, and analysis your team actually uses.

Practical adoption training for Copilot in Word, Excel, Teams, and Outlook. For teams already licensed but not getting value.

Common questions

Do you travel to our location?

Yes. In-person sessions are held at your office across Central Florida. Lakeland, Orlando, Tampa Bay, Winter Haven, Kissimmee, and surrounding areas. For locations outside Central Florida, virtual is available at the same price.

How small a team is too small?

There's no minimum. The Roadmap session (90 minutes, $400–$600) is a great starting point for teams of 2–5. Larger half-day sessions work well for 5–30 people. If your team is just 2–3 people, the strategy session is the most practical first step.

Can we do multiple topics in one session?

The Roadmap session is the best starting point. It identifies which topics matter most for your team. From there, you can book targeted workshops in order of priority rather than trying to cover everything at once.

Do you build or implement after the training?

No. These are educational workshops. The goal is that your team leaves with skills and confidence to apply AI themselves. There's no ongoing management, implementation, or subscription. You own the knowledge.

How is this different from a Microsoft trainer?

Microsoft trainers teach Microsoft tools. They have to. AI Evolution is vendor-neutral. If your team uses Copilot, you'll learn Copilot. But the thinking patterns travel with the person, not the tool. So when Microsoft ships the next license tier, your training doesn't go stale.

What size team is best?

The Accelerator workshop is designed for 5–15 participants. Smaller teams get great value from a Roadmap session ($400–$600). Larger organizations (15+) book The Enterprise tier for full-day or multi-session formats.

How does in-person travel work?

Travel within the I-4 corridor (Lakeland, Tampa, Orlando, Winter Haven, Kissimmee) is typically included in the flat-fee pricing. For outlying locations like Ocala or Sarasota, a small travel addition may apply. Confirmed at booking.

The I-4 corridor problem (and what we keep seeing)

Central Florida has a specific shape. The I-4 corridor links Lakeland, Tampa Bay, and Orlando into one workforce, but the businesses inside it span every kind of complexity. Big enterprise headquarters in Tampa and downtown Orlando. The Lake Nona life sciences cluster. Defense and simulation in southeast Orange. Florida Polytechnic and the tech-adjacent workforce around Lakeland. Healthcare networks anchored in Tampa and Orlando. A long tail of family-owned services, professional firms, and nonprofits in every county. Same I-4. Different problems.

What stays the same across every engagement so far: teams have AI access, the work isn't changing, and nobody on the leadership team knows whether the rollout is working or just running. The workshops are designed to close that specific gap. Not a generic AI literacy talk. Not vendor demos dressed as training. The actual job is to make Monday morning look different than last Monday morning, in a way that survives the next quarterly model release.

Three composite examples across Central Florida

Composite snapshots, drawn from real Central Florida engagements. Identifying details changed.

A 50-person Tampa professional services firm rolled out Copilot to the whole org six months ago. Eight people used it daily. The other 42 had opened it once. The Roadmap session uncovered the actual problem: the leadership team was tracking license count, not adoption. The Accelerator workshop ran on three real workflows the firm did every week. The meeting-notes habit changed across two teams by the following Tuesday.

A 20-person hospitality back-office team in Orlando had a permission problem, not a tool problem. Two seasoned analysts used AI every day. The rest of the team treated it like something only the seasoned people were allowed to touch. The workshop produced a one-page policy that said which work was okay to use AI on, who decided when the answer wasn't sure, and what to do when output looked wrong. Adoption widened the same week.

A 35-person professional services firm in Polk County had Copilot licenses for nine months and uneven adoption. The Accelerator focused on three weekly workflows: client meeting summaries, project status emails, proposal drafts. The Monday after the workshop, three different people drafted in Copilot what they would have written from scratch. The training didn't transform anything. It built a habit. The habit is what survives the next model release.
