We train the team. On their real work.
312 IT Consulting runs hands-on AI training for companies, from small and mid-size businesses up to Fortune 500 firms. Our founder has led AI training for 1,200+ people across four regions. Every program runs on the AI accounts your team already has, using your own processes and documents.
How we train.
Two days, hands-on, on your team's own ChatGPT accounts (any plan) or the AI tool you already pay for. Exercises after every module, practice data instead of real customer data, and a certificate of completion for every attendee.
Day 1 · Foundations
The same for everyone

- Writing prompts that get usable work the first time
- Checking the output and keeping company data private
- Working from your own notes, spreadsheets and documents
- Using AI as a thinking partner for decisions and drafts
What a team walks out with
- Use cases they can run the next morning
- Their own documents turned into working prompts
- Clear rules on what goes into AI and what never does
- A support team sized to the room, so nobody falls behind
Day 2 · Applied
Tailored to your roles and industry
- Reusable workflows and saved instructions for recurring work

- How much we tailor is the main thing that sets the price
What the training did.
Before and after each session, attendees rated their confidence using AI on a 0–10 scale. From a two-day program our founder led for an IT department of 1,000+ people, part of the 1,200+ person rollout.
Attendees who started under 6 finished at 8.2. The people with the most to gain gained the most.
“AI training was fantastic. Most of the people in the room enjoyed it a lot, lots of comments ‘best training’. So thank you for that!”
Team lead, two weeks after the first cohort“Thank you for all the help and insight with our various AI tools. I appreciate you taking the time to answer questions and do the overall training and introduction on Claude and helping me generally work through the process. I have been able to improve my metric reporting with business leadership and it was well received, so I appreciate the help and patience.”
One-on-one training client, after private sessions on ClaudeIn their words.
Verbatim feedback, two weeks after the first cohort“2 skills that automatically fix our code violations… save hours of development efforts”
“I estimate saving 30–45 hours of effort while improving the speed and quality of deliverables.”
“I have been able to create reusable templates within minutes”
“Leveraged Copilot Studio to build an AI agent integrated with Jira and Salesforce MCP, enabling non-developers to get instant answers to day-to-day technical questions”
“I have coached team members on how to use Cowork”
“Automated a very manual process”
“Using Cowork to generate and revise complex Excel models… saving well over 20 hours in the past month alone.”
“I continue to think of ways I can use it successfully”
“Automated multiple scenarios… better API error handling, auto dependency creation, setting up better enterprise common omni gateway”
AI enablement that sticks.
AI training works when it's about the job, not the technology. Every 312 program runs that way.
founder-led rollout, 4 regions, 3 months
Regions, one rollout
An entire global IT organization of 1,200+ people across the USA, Latin America, Europe, and India, trained in three months with persona-based sessions. People left with use cases they could apply the next day.
Company programs
Fundamentals for everyone, then hands-on sessions applied to the client's own processes, with a support team sized to the room. Teams leave self-sufficient.
Private instruction
For owners and leaders: turning spreadsheets, emails, and contracts into visuals and action items, and automating the reporting they redo every week.
