Do you know your Context Window from your Cutoff Date?
Your Flipped from your Chain of Thought?
Your Shots from your Tokens?
If the answer is “not quite”… good news: you’re in exactly the right place.
Generative AI is everywhere – but for most PMO professionals, it still feels like a black box full of jargon.
Context windows, hallucinations, tokens, cut-off dates… it can feel more like science fiction than project management.
That’s why the House of PMO is running a two-part, practical webinar series designed to build your AI confidence from the ground up. We’ll cut through the hype, translate the tech into plain English, and show you exactly how to make tools like ChatGPT, Gemini and Co-Pilot work for you.
And the best part? It’s free, online, and built for busy PMO professionals.
What You’ll Learn
Your essential AI PMO 101. In just one hour you’ll learn:
- What Generative AI is (and what it isn’t).
- How large language models (LLMs) work — tokens, context windows, cut-off dates explained.
- How to use AI safely and ethically (avoiding bias and “hallucinations”).
- The building blocks of effective prompting, including the C.R.E.A.T.E. model and the 555 Rule.
You’ll leave with a strong foundation – and the start of your 5 Cs of Prompting Skills: Critical thinking, Computational reasoning, Creativity, Communication, and Collaboration.
Take your skills further. This intermediate session (AI PMO 102) explores how to:
- Unlock advanced reasoning prompts and understand how AI “thinks.”
- Run deep research with transparency and source checks.
- Apply advanced prompting techniques – zero-, few-, and many-shot prompting, contrastive examples, structured outputs.
- Use next-level features like custom styles, Canvas Mode, and NotebookLM for collaborative work.
- Revisit the C.R.E.A.T.E. model and 555 Rule with more sophisticated applications.
By the end, you’ll be confident using AI as a thinking partner, not just a tool – putting you ahead of the curve.
Because let’s face it:
AI won’t replace humans – but humans using AI will outpace those who don’t.
