AI Workshops · Dubai

AI training where people leave with something that works.

Hands-on Claude and AI workshops for professionals and for companies. No theory marathons. Everyone works on their own laptop, on their own work, and walks out with a set-up they use on Monday.

“Start using Claude” — #1 Monday action

Two ways in

Whether it's you, or your whole company.

Same principle for both: learn it by building it. The difference is what you build.

Claude Level 2 — public cohort

For founders, consultants and professionals who already use the Claude app and want the next step: Claude Code, running on your own machine, wired into your email, notes and documents.

  • Small open cohorts in Dubai
  • Your own AI assistant by the end of the day
  • Attendees get replay videos of every step

Corporate AI workshop — built around your team

For leadership teams, department heads and staff. We teach the tools you already pay for, then run a structured session where your people map their own problems onto AI and leave with a prioritised roadmap.

  • 15–40 people, on-site or at a venue
  • Use-case cards tailored to your industry
  • Post-workshop report with a costed roadmap

Claude Level 2: from the app to your own AI assistant.

You've learned to prompt. Level 2 is where Claude stops being a chat window and becomes your operating system — running on your machine, with access to your email, your notes and your files.

Built for people who've done a basic Claude course but have never opened a terminal. Run with our partners at Sprout Academy.

What you build, step by step

  1. Step 1

    Install Claude Code

    Terminal, Homebrew and the Claude CLI — set up properly on your own Mac, with someone next to you when it breaks.

  2. Step 2

    Plug in your email

    Connect your inbox so Claude can triage, summarise and draft. Your inbox, sorted before 9am.

  3. Step 3

    Give Claude a second brain

    A notes vault Claude reads and writes to, so it remembers your clients, projects and decisions.

  4. Step 4

    Make it brand-aware

    Teach it your tone, your templates and your brand rules once. Stop re-explaining every chat.

  5. Step 5

    Build & fix real documents

    Proposals, reports and client docs generated as HTML, turned into clean PDFs and backed up.

  6. Step 6

    Connect anything

    Calendar, Drive, CRM — how connectors work, so you can keep extending it after the workshop.

  7. You leave with your own AI assistant

    One assistant, three superpowers: it reads your inbox, remembers your work and produces finished documents — and it's yours to keep building.

For companies

Your team maps its own problems. Then AI gets pointed at them.

Generic AI training gets forgotten by Wednesday. Our corporate format spends half the day teaching and half the day on your actual work — so the output isn't a certificate, it's a ranked list of things worth automating, drawn up by the people who do the work.

01First half

Educate

Where AI actually is right now, what it can and can’t do, and the accuracy and confidentiality rules your people must follow. Then a deep-dive on the tools you already pay for — Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot — and the features nobody on your team is using yet.

02Second half

Discover & design

Teams work from use-case cards written for your industry. Every real problem goes on a sticky note, gets sorted into “good for AI” or not, and the strongest ones are designed step by step on a canvas — then placed on a value-vs-effort board in front of the room.

03After the day

Roadmap

A written post-workshop report: every use case your teams produced, ranked, with what it would take to build, what you can do with tools you already own, and where a specialist build is worth it. Plus a named internal AI champion to own the rollout.

What actually comes out of the day.

Diversified Dubai group · Sep 2026

Around 40 managers, six business units, one board of ranked ideas.

Property, construction, facilities, trading and group functions in one room. Six teams produced their own use cases — from inspection reports to quotation estimates to AutoCAD-to-Excel data entry — and placed them on a single value-vs-effort board.

International audit & advisory firm · Aug 2026

Audit, tax and compliance staff designing their own AI work.

About 20 people across audit, tax and KYC. After the teaching block, each person filled in a use-case canvas and ranked it on a sticky-note wall. Two ideas stood out:

  • Audit-file completeness check — Claude reads the file against the firm's own methodology and flags missing procedures before review.
  • Tax jobs dashboard — one view of every job from KYC to billing, replacing the spreadsheet everyone updates by hand.

How we run it

Taught by people who build this for a living.

We're not a training company. Optomize builds AI systems for businesses in the UAE — the workshops teach what we use every day, and the use cases your team finds are ones we can actually build.

Everyone hands-on

Every participant works on their own laptop. We come ready for the Mac that won’t install and the Windows machine with locked permissions.

Your industry, your tools

Examples and use-case cards are written for your sector, on the AI tools you already own — not a generic demo.

Facilitators on the floor

Multiple facilitators walk the room so nobody sits stuck for twenty minutes waiting for help.

After the workshop

Learn → Map → Build

1

Learn

Your team gets fluent with the tools and stops being scared of them.

2

Map

Your own people produce a ranked list of where AI pays back.

3

Build

The quick wins you run yourselves. The bigger ones, we can build with you — department by department.
