ABOUT

Digital Skills Day: AI in Action — Build Smarter. Create Faster. Grow with AI.

Are you ready to stop guessing with AI and start building real results for your business?

Join us for Digital Skills Day: AI in Action, a high-impact, half-day, hands-on workshop built specifically for entrepreneurs, small business owners, and side hustlers who want practical skills, real confidence, and immediate business outputs.


What You’ll Walk Away With

  • AI That Works for You: Master reusable prompt frameworks, learn when to deploy ChatGPT versus Claude, and generate distinctive, high-converting marketing copy and images that don't look generic.
  • Canva for Business: Learn how to bridge the gap between AI concepts and visual execution—turning raw ideas into polished, on-brand marketing assets with a professional human touch.
  • Immediate Implementation: Bring an actual business task, advert, or idea to the session and apply what you learn live so you leave with real work completed.


Meet Your Workshop Team

  • Riad Laher (AI Specialist & Digital Transformation Facilitator) — Bringing over 20 years of retail and technology experience with a marketing-led approach to practical AI.
  • Shaakira Rahiman (Marketing Manager, Roshgold Investment Holdings) — Guiding you through Canva basics to design like a pro and elevate your visual branding.
