I started with a basic understanding of AI and prompting. I ended with the ability to build agentic workflows. My productivity has jumped 2x! The content is spot on and the instructor is extremely knowledgeable. I enjoyed it all and I came out better. Good stuff.

Fantastically helpful month-long course that has helped reinforce some current practices as well as introduce new edges as AI continues to evolve quickly. Ryan covered A LOT of ground and there is undoubtedly some significant skill building in this course for everyone and any one.

This is a great mentality- and skill-building course, focusing on the principles that drive effective use of popular, widely accessible AI tools. I came to it having spent a lot of time with AI chat, mostly prompting at the conversational level, and was able to start improving my use of AI from week one. Ryan's a great instructor: he has deep technical expertise, but he's thought a lot about what a less (or non-) technical audience needs to know (and can do with AI) right now. He's very enthusiastic, but consistently makes an effort to identify limitations and/or risks. If you're looking for a principled, encouraging, and flexible environment to nurture and reflect on your use of AI tools, Ryan's course is pretty ideal.

Outstanding AI Course for All Levels Instructor: Ryan Turner I cannot recommend Ryan Turner’s AI course at Maven highly enough! As someone who is technologically challenged, I took the class hoping just for a basic knowledge. I was completely blown away by the quality and the amount of things I learned. Ryan is an exceptional instructor who taught us the foundation to use AI the right way, ensuring we avoid bad habits and get accurate answers from AI tools. He starts with a game-changing technique: teaching AI how to use AI. This was tremendously useful right from the start as I began practicing and using the tools. Because of the availability of class recordings, I was able to go over those and learn at my own pace. I could revisit complex topics and learn at my own speed, making the course momentum manageable and not feel so overwhelmed. He is accessible to everyone. Our cohort included from total beginners like me to experienced programmers. I didn't know what I was doing in this class. But Ryan masterfully taught us all at different levels without any stress. The class didn't feel like work. I actually enjoyed being in class. His supportive demeanor encouraged me to spend hours practicing and playing with the tools at my own pace. I confess, I submitted only one of my class submissions. I regret not having submitted more of them. His clear, concise, and just few words comment to my one paper gave me the greatest Eureka moment of the class. He will read and comment on everything his students submit and I highly recommend doing all the submissions (homework). I was embarrassed to present any of my work, which was really dumb. His course is a must-take. Ryan is personable, kind, and genuinely easygoing. But he can get very serious when he is teaching the tough stuff. He never made me feel bad about being over my head here. I really loved the name he gave our cohort: 'Team Alpha Super Awesome Cool Dynamite Wolf Squadron.' (Shrek 3). That creative spark really set the stage for the incredible journey we had ahead of us. If you want the best foundation for using AI effectively, I highly recommend Ryan Turner's 30 Day AI Challenge at Maven. Ingrid Hess, CRS, GRI

Absolutely critical in growing my skills. I was already using AI every day at work. This course took it to an entirely different stratosphere of awareness and integration.

I learnt that to get the best out of the an AI program, it important to be precise one write his/her prompt.

This course completely shifted my perspective by showing me that AI isn't a tool for being lazy, but a way to be truly efficient with my own solutions and automating the busy work so I can actually work smarter.

IF YOU ONLY EVER TAKE ONE AI COURSE - THIS IS THE ONE! Ryan has clearly forgotten more about AI than most of us will ever know. However, it was a distinct privilege to get a glimpse into the world of effectively using AI through Ryan's insights and knowledge. The course is well organized and delivered. I like that the daily sessions are less than 15 minutes each - allows you to focus on that specific topic. His delivery is casual and fun, with laser focus on ensuring the topic is well-explained. His examples are most helpful. I recommend this course without hesitation.

Ryan's course was super eye opening to all the possibilities of AI! I have learned so many things and gained a new level of respect for AI. With what I have learned, I will definitely be able to save several hours during my work week. Highly recommend!
