Build a live training script
Add your audience, session length and branding, and get a prompt for a talk track and slides you can present yourself.
TL;DR
Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction is a sequence for how to teach, not what to teach: gain attention, state the objective, recall prior knowledge, present the content, provide guidance, elicit performance, provide feedback, assess performance, and enhance retention and transfer. Most training skips the practice and feedback steps, and the bridge back to the job at the end.
Take the full courseWhat could go wrong
- Double check the details. Make sure you’re telling the AI the right product, feature, or audience. A prompt built on the wrong specifics will confidently give you the wrong output.
- Check your spelling and terms. Typos in product names, tier names, or feature names will get picked up literally. Read your inputs before you submit.
- Be specific, not vague. The more detail you give about your business, your customers, and your goal, the better the output. Vague inputs get vague prompts back.
- Use voice dictation to move faster. Tools like Wispr Flow (or your phone or computer’s built-in dictation) let you talk through your inputs instead of typing, which is especially useful for the longer fields.
- This gets you a strong starting point, not a finished product. Review what the AI gives you before you use it with a real team or customer.
