Bespoke AI Coding and Programming Introduction - 2 Day Training

Course Details

This practical 2-day course provides a solid foundation in using AI-powered tools to support coding and software development workflows. Working hands-on in modern AI-assisted development environments, you will explore how AI coding assistants can help teams write, understand, debug and improve code more efficiently.

The course focuses on practical, real-world development workflows rather than a single language or framework. You will learn how to communicate effectively with AI coding tools, generate and refine code, support debugging and build repeatable AI-assisted development processes that can be applied within your own projects and environments.

Because this is a bespoke course, training can be adapted to your organisation’s development workflows, coding standards, technologies and AI development goals. Sessions can incorporate relevant languages, frameworks and project examples to ensure practical and relevant outcomes for your team.

Course Target Audience and delegate prerequisites:

This course is particularly useful for organisations exploring AI-assisted development workflows and teams looking to integrate AI into existing coding practices. It is intended for anyone who writes code, works with development projects or is learning modern programming workflows and wants to understand how AI fits into software development.

It is suitable for developers, technical teams, digital professionals and learners who want to build confidence using AI coding assistants within real-world development environments. Delegates should have a basic understanding of programming concepts and familiarity with writing or editing code but no prior experience with AI tools is required.
