Most marketers know AI is going to change how they work. The hard part is building the practical skills and confidence to apply it well in their day-to-day. A recent survey found that 74% of marketers say AI will be critically or very important to their marketing in 2026, yet 68% report that their company provides no formal AI training.
The AI + Marketing Bootcamp is designed to close that gap. It's a practical, hands-on program that helps marketing teams build the foundation to apply AI in real work. Each engagement is customized to the client's industry, goals, and team. What follows below is the core shape of the course. The content, examples, and emphasis are tailored to fit, and most engagements include additional areas of focus based on what the team actually needs to learn.
