## Tailored to your operation.

Content, examples and exercises reflect your existing stack, your real workflows and your team's experience.

Before the session, three short questions clarify the systems you use, the team's experience and the workflow that should improve.

## AI literacy

### AI Literacy Training (Article 4 EU AI Act)

Situation

AI is already in use or planned, but the team lacks a shared operating standard.

Content

Context-specific work on the AI systems in use: roles and prior knowledge, purpose, affected groups, risks, safe use, limitations and human responsibility.

Format

In-house training for teams

Retained artifact

Internal record of systems, risks, learning objectives, content and participants

Boundary

Training and internal documentation; no system implementation, individual legal advice, certification or compliance guarantee.

## Data & company knowledge

### Data Workshop

Situation

Relevant data and operational knowledge exist, but there is no shared view of sources, quality, gaps and ownership.

Content

Data quality and knowledge documentation as prerequisites for dependable AI use.

Format

facilitated workshop

Retained artifact

Data map and knowledge inventory

Boundary

Shared inventory and decision basis; no prototype or system implementation.

## Processes & automation

### Process Capture

Situation

There is no reliable view of the current process, making work, waiting, handoffs and information loss difficult to see.

Content

Make the work sequence visible, identify bottlenecks and establish decision criteria for prioritization.

Format

facilitated on-site workshop

Retained artifact

Process landscape, bottlenecks and prioritization matrix

Boundary

Visibility and prioritization; no implementation roadmap or system build.

[Enquire about Process Capture](mailto:hello@aprixity.run?subject=Process+Capture&body=Three+short+details+help+us+prepare+the+offer+for+your+operation%3A%0A%0A1.+Which+systems+do+you+use+in+the+relevant+workflow%3F%0A2.+How+does+your+team+use+AI+and+data+today%3F%0A3.+Which+workflow+or+decision+should+improve%3F)

### Bottleneck Analysis

Situation

A usable process map and target exist, but the binding constraint and sensible implementation order are unclear.

Content

Structured analysis of the constraint, its operational effects and the order of possible interventions.

Format

structured analysis

Retained artifact

Prioritized roadmap

Boundary

Prioritization and implementation order; no process capture or implementation.

## A concrete case rather than a learning objective?

The Academy enables teams. A concrete operational AI case that needs a decision belongs in AI consulting.

## The method in five thought movements

Understand first, then simplify, then automate.

Clarify the target and constraint. Remove ballast. Simplify the flow. Make knowledge explicit. Prove it on a small scale.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do we need prior AI knowledge?

### We already use AI. Is the portfolio still relevant?

### Does this fit our industry?

### Is this about specific AI tools?

### What does Article 4 of the EU AI Act require?

Providers and deployers of AI systems must take measures to support the development of AI literacy among their staff and other persons dealing with the operation or use of AI systems on their behalf. Appropriate measures depend on prior knowledge, roles, systems used, purpose and risks. Article 4 mandates neither a specific individual competence level nor a certificate or uniform course format; training, guidance and other measures can be documented internally.

### “Our processes are too complex for that.”

Most processes are not complex but complicated: many steps, yet each one can be traced. A complicated process can be mapped, simplified and then automated with precision. The size of your company is no reason to stop — it is the reason to start by understanding.
