Kick off the new year with clarity, confidence, and practical tools you can actually use.
AI in the Workplace is a full-day, hands-on workshop designed for business owners, leaders, and teams who want to understand how AI fits into everyday work — without jargon, overwhelm, or technical complexity.
Whether you’re curious, cautious, or already experimenting, this session meets you where you are and shows you how to use AI in ways that genuinely support your business.
We’re bringing this training to Pictou County in partnership with Symplicity Designs, led by Matt Symes, one of Atlantic Canada’s most trusted business transformation leaders.
This workshop is hosted by the Pictou County Chamber of Commerce, with support from Ignite Atlantic.
