AI in the Wild: Practical AI & ML for Professional Teams
Turn AI Pressure Into Productivity: Implement Real-World AI Solutions in 6 Weeks
A hands-on, 6-week program designed to effectively and ethically integrate AI into your language-heavy workflows—from research and analysis to drafting and reporting.
Is your team feeling the AI pressure?
The shift is here.
If your competitors are already using AI for analysis, drafting, and operational efficiency, and if your firm lacks the internal expertise to effectively adopt AI, you're likely not just slowing down—you're getting left behind.
-
Expectations are rising for faster, smarter, data-driven outputs.
-
Productivity demands are straining current manual, language-heavy processes.
- Siloed learning leads to a lack of shared standards, wildly varying quality in outputs, and potentially critical data protection vulnerabilities.
-
Internal expertise is sparse, leading to analysis paralysis and missed opportunities.
Move from urgency to implementation in just six weeks.
Practical Skills to Anchor Your Team's Future Success
AI in the Wild is a focused, part-time program designed to demystify AI and give your team a clear, ethical, and practical roadmap for adoption. We are built for the workflows you know best: proposals, reports, contracts, research, repetitive tasks, and knowledge management.
-
Duration: 12 sessions over 6 weeks, part-time and virtual.
-
Schedule: Wednesdays and Fridays, 12pm - 1:30pm (designed to fit professional schedules).
-
Start Date: January 28th, 2026.

Past Learner Testimonials
Henry Ha
Developer
What really impressed me with the InceptionU learners is that they are presented with real-world problems and challenges. The students are then tasked with addressing these problems and present their solutions. That's someone who I want to put in front of a client.
Kahled Elbitar
CEO, Solution Stack
I decided to seek some more formal training, and that was at InceptionU. And I was blown away with how fast I was able to learn the basics that I had been struggling over for two years that I was trying to do it on my own; how succinctly they were able to teach it, and then go way past that and blow your expectations out for how much you can learn in a short period of time.
Aric Crosson-Bouwers
Developer, Collegium
My experience at InceptionU has blown me away. I had high expectations to learn the technical skills, and what I found at InceptionU is that they bring all the right people, not only for techinical skills, but for what tech can be. The diversity in the cohort, and the diversity in the facilitators has been great. InceptionU has been a game-changer and a life changer for me.
