Texas DIR Training
AI awareness for Texas public-sector teams.
Help your team understand AI, ask better questions and use human judgment when working with it. OptiMind’s AI awareness training program is certified by the Texas Department of Information Resources.
Based in Austin, Texas, we support teams across the United States with in-person training, virtual courses, advice and practical AI implementation. We travel for engagements when needed.
Who it is for
A clear starting point for your team.
For Texas public-sector teams looking for AI awareness training, and the people responsible for arranging it.
Start with a conversation about who will attend, their experience with AI and the training your organization needs. We will help you work through the next steps.
The learning focus
Understand the tools. Keep your judgment.
We approach AI training through practical questions that connect the technology to everyday work.
- Where could AI help with a task, and where does it fall short?
- What context and instructions does it need to give a useful answer?
- How should you check an answer before using it?
- What information should stay out of a tool, and which organizational rules apply?
Discuss your audience and learning needs with Eric when arranging training.
