Practical workshops
Build a shared foundation.
Learn tool choice, prompting, AI policy development, workflow design, automation, and AI-assisted building in context.
Explore the workshopFrom learning to implementation
Learn the tools. Apply them to real work.
Start with a practical workshop or bring us a defined implementation challenge. We usually recommend learning together before building.
Consulting & implementation
Move one useful idea forward.
Scope a real use case, choose an appropriate approach, build a first version, and review it responsibly.

Six learning areas
From organizational AI policy to advanced automation.
45, 60, or 90 minutes
The curriculum scales to the time and priorities available.
Online by default
Easy to host for distributed teams and organizations.
Workshop curriculum
From first prompt to connected workflow.
The session moves from choosing tools and setting organizational AI policy to applying them across the writing, research, communications, and operations work organizations do every day.
Foundations of AI for organizations
Start with a clear view of the landscape and match each kind of work to the right tool.
- What modern AI can and cannot do
- Choosing the right AI tool for different tasks
- ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and NotebookLM
Organizational AI policy and guardrails
Create or refine clear, workable rules for how your organization adopts and uses AI.
- Reviewing existing AI rules, policies, and approval processes
- Defining acceptable use, data-handling boundaries, and human oversight
- Turning responsible AI principles into a practical policy staff can understand and follow
Prompt engineering and critical review
Structure better conversations while keeping privacy, accuracy, and human review in view.
- Effective prompts, conversation structure, and reusable frameworks
- Privacy, confidentiality, hallucinations, and bias
- Human review for fundraising, public communications, legal, and beneficiary-related decisions
Practical organizational applications
Connect familiar organizational work to specific ways AI can reduce drafting, research, and coordination time.
- Grant writing and donor communications
- Social media, outreach, and educational materials
- Volunteer onboarding, meeting summaries, and document drafting
No-code AI automation
See how Make connects everyday tools into useful, repeatable workflows.
- Summarizing form responses and drafting follow-up emails
- Processing spreadsheets and routing information between apps
- Creating simple AI-powered automations without code
AI coding and advanced automation
Understand what tools such as Claude Code add when a workflow needs to go beyond no-code platforms.
- Small internal tools and repetitive admin automation
- Data analysis and scripting
- Extending workflows beyond the limits of no-code tools
Useful across the organization.
Examples can be shaped around fundraising, communications, volunteer programs, operations, research, or internal knowledge.

Consulting & implementation
Build the right thing with the people who will use it.
Implementation is available directly, but most organizations benefit from beginning with a workshop. Shared understanding helps teams make better choices and own what comes next.
Discuss a projectUnderstand the challenge
Clarify the people, workflow, constraints, and outcome before choosing a tool.
Choose the right approach
Compare tools and decide whether the idea needs a workflow, automation, or small prototype.
Build and review
Move toward a working first version, test it in context, and keep responsible review connected to the work.
Start a conversation
Bring your people and a real challenge.
Tell us about your organization, the tools you are considering, and the workflows or ideas you want to explore.
You can come directly with an implementation challenge. We will recommend a workshop first when shared understanding would make the work stronger.
