Public bootcamp · Cohort 001
The 5-Day AI Builder Sprint
In five days, you'll build one working AI system for your real job and demo it live — or you don't get certified, and you get your money back.
The five days
Day 1
Scope
From Work Map to Build Spec: problem, inputs, outputs, success test, safe-data rules.
Output: a one-page Build Spec
Day 2
Build v1
System instructions, knowledge files, first working version — built live, together.
Output: v1 demo on a sample task
Day 3
Real work
Ground it in your real documents and templates. Optional automation layer for the ambitious.
Output: v2 running on a real task
Day 4
Harden
Failure cases, quality tests, guardrails. Run it on three real tasks and measure the time saved.
Output: a test log with evidence
Day 5
Demo Day
Three-minute demos, live assessment against the Build Standard, certification decisions, share kit.
Output: your Verified Build Record
The CIAI Build Standard
Certification means all four. No exceptions.
Works
Performs live on a fresh input the assessor provides on Demo Day.
Real
Solves a genuine task from your actual job — not a toy example.
Owned
You explain how it works and modify it on request, live.
Measured
A credible time-saved estimate, evidenced by your test log.
Near-miss? One free re-demo within 14 days. Attendance minimum: 4 of 5 live sessions.

Questions
Before you book
Do I need to code?+
No. The primary tools are no-code (Claude Projects or custom GPTs). An optional automation layer is offered on Day 3 for the ambitious.
How much time does the Sprint take?+
90 minutes live per day (UK lunchtime) plus 45–60 minutes of build time, for five consecutive weekdays.
What if my build doesn't work by Day 5?+
The Build Guarantee: attend all five sessions and leave without a working system, and you get a full refund. Near-misses get one free re-demo within 14 days.
Is this accredited?+
Certificates are issued by CIAI, an independent certification body under London Royal Academy. We assess against a published standard and maintain a public verification register. We do not claim chartered status or government regulation.
What tools do I need?+
A laptop, your normal work documents, and a Claude or ChatGPT account — guidance provided; the ~£20/month tier is recommended.
Will my work data be safe?+
You build with your own accounts; nothing is uploaded to us. Day 1 covers safe-data practice for workplace use.
What happens after the Sprint?+
Your build keeps working — it's yours. A 30-day check-in is included, and your Verified Build Record stays on the public register.
