Curious how ChatGPT can help you build real skills you can use right away?
Join OpenAI Academy and the Foothill-De Anza Community College District for a hands-on workshop where you will learn how to use ChatGPT to create, test and build your own projects. This session is designed for students who want to go beyond basic use and understand how to apply AI tools in practical ways.
You will spend most of the session working directly in ChatGPT — testing ideas, refining outputs, and building something of your own with support from facilitators.
Whether you are exploring new ways to study, organize your work or build personal projects, this session will help you understand how to use AI in a thoughtful, practical and effective way.
What to expect
- Hands-on activities using ChatGPT
- Guided exercises that build from basics to more advanced use
- Time to explore and build your own project
- Support from facilitators throughout the session
- Student showcases of work created during the workshop
- Lunch and informal networking
