Why attend?
Most developers are experimenting with AI coding tools. Few have developed reliable ways of working with them in real projects.
You’ll learn how to:
- Build repeatable AI-assisted development workflows
- Create better context for higher-quality AI output
- Review, refine, and validate generated code
- Work effectively across modern AI coding tools
This is practical, systematic training built for developers working on real software systems.
Tool-aware, not tool-dependent
Learn approaches that apply across Cursor, Copilot, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools.
Designed for developers
Practical workflows for building, understanding, and improving software with AI assistance.
Built around real development work
Practice with realistic coding tasks, reviews, and iterative development workflows.
Interactive by design
Limited attendance to support discussion and peer learning.
Who should attend?
This workshop is designed for software developers, technical leads, and engineering teams who want a more structured approach to AI-assisted development.
It is suitable for developers who are new to AI coding tools as well as those already using them and looking for more reliable workflows.
What you'll leave with
- Practical AI-assisted development techniques
- Reusable workflows for prompting, review, and iteration
- A clearer understanding of how to use AI coding tools responsibly
- Access to post-workshop learning materials
Certification & recognition
Participants will receive a digital completion badge via Credly and access to post-workshop learning materials.
The interactive workshop experience
Go beyond prompting and learn reliable ways of working with modern AI coding tools.
Dr. Jonas Helming
