ChatGPT Foundation

What Your Team Will Learn

ChatGPT stopped being a chat window some time ago. Custom GPTs, connected apps, projects, images and agent mode all sit behind the same box people type into, and most of them go unused in workplaces that pay for them every month.

This full day course puts them to work. You will build a custom GPT, set up a project properly, connect ChatGPT to the tools your team already uses, and learn where handing over a task beats typing another instruction. You will leave with a set of ways of working, not just a list of features you have seen once.

Well versed in the systems they are training. I came in with no knowledge of Camtasia and left feeling much more confident with the skills and tools I needed to create content, thanks to Mark. Would highly recommend Keystroke Learning

I recommend absolutely everyone who needs training to come here. Mark and Brendan run incredible classes and the public courses are guaranteed to run even if you're the only one signed up. That's how I got some one-on-one Excel Advanced training this week. Mark was a fantastic teacher - very patient, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I've come away thinking Excel is COOL. The training facility is great, they keep it stocked with TimTams, tea and coffee, and there is a food court downstairs for lunch. I wouldn't go anywhere else! 😊

Mark delivered a Power BI beginners course to our team, and he was absolutely fantastic! The content was engaging, and he adapted to the specific needs of the attendees. Mark was also incredibly easy to work with to organise this training. I would not hesitate to use Keystroke Learning again for our future training needs!

I did the Excel Intermediate and Advanced training with Mark and I had a great experience. The course took a great holistic approach to covering the different aspects of Excel and Mark also took time to show how different elements of the program could be useful in my role specifically, spending longer on the parts of the program that were necessary for me. With a promise of lifetime support, giving me the ability to reach out at any point where I continue to be a bit stuck with Excel, I am very happy with my choice to train with Keystroke
