ChatGPT training courses

Use ChatGPT safely and productively at work: projects, custom GPTs, data analysis, Canvas and privacy settings in team workspaces.

For many business teams, ChatGPT is the first AI tool they use every day – yet there is a methodical gap between asking the odd question and achieving real productivity gains. In this hands-on day you learn to apply ChatGPT deliberately to recurring work: drafting and editing text, summarising documents, analysing spreadsheets and structuring decision papers. You work with Projects that keep files and instructions together, with Canvas for reworking longer documents, and with data analysis for Excel and CSV files. Every exercise is based on genuine tasks from your own function.

The second focus is scale and responsibility. You build a custom GPT that knows your templates, tone of voice and review rules, and that colleagues across the workspace can use. We also clarify which data belongs in ChatGPT and which does not, how Team and Enterprise workspaces differ from personal accounts, and which settings matter for model training, memory and sharing. You leave with a personal prompt library, a working GPT and clear ground rules for using ChatGPT responsibly across your organisation.

Module 4 Custom GPTs for recurring tasks
  • Identifying and scoping good use cases for GPTs
  • Configuring instructions, knowledge files and conversation starters
  • Testing, improving and sharing a GPT within the workspace
  • Maintenance, change tracking for instructions and ownership in the team
Module 5 Privacy, workspaces and governance
  • Personal accounts versus Team and Enterprise workspaces
  • Settings for model training, memory, temporary chats and sharing
  • Handling personal and confidential data in line with GDPR

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a paid ChatGPT licence for the course?

You can follow the fundamentals with a free account. However, features such as custom GPTs, Projects with larger files and advanced data analysis are tied to paid plans or come with far more generous limits there. Ideally you join with access to your organisation's Team or Enterprise workspace, so you practise under real conditions.

May I enter confidential company data into ChatGPT?

That depends on your plan, your contractual terms and your internal policy. In Team and Enterprise workspaces, content is not used for training by default, but GDPR and confidentiality obligations still apply. In the course you learn how to classify and anonymise data and how to choose the right settings.

How is a custom GPT different from a saved prompt?

A GPT bundles persistent instructions, knowledge files and optional tools such as web search or data analysis into a dedicated assistant. Colleagues can use it without any prompting skills and get consistent results. A saved prompt, by contrast, has to be copied and supplemented with context every time, which is far more error-prone.

Prerequisites

Confident use of office applications and a web browser; no prior AI knowledge is required. Feel free to bring your own non-confidential sample tasks from your daily work.

A laptop with an up-to-date browser and a ChatGPT account; a paid plan or access to your organisation's Team or Enterprise workspace is recommended for custom GPTs, Projects and data analysis.
