ChatGPT training for business

What do participants learn in a ChatGPT training, and how is the price arranged?

A ChatGPT training from Dave Willemstein is an in-company training for teams and professionals who work a lot with text, information and communication, using three to five tasks per role from their own work as practice material. Participants learn to write better prompts, capture recurring work in custom GPTs and projects, check outcomes, and handle data safely. The programme is agreed in a short intake, and the training is priced as a fixed fee confirmed in writing beforehand.

Is technical background needed for the ChatGPT training?

No. The ChatGPT training is intended for teams and professionals who work a lot with text, information and communication, and no technical background is needed for it.

Can the ChatGPT training be combined with Copilot?

Yes, if teams use both: the ChatGPT training and the Copilot training are then combined into a single programme.

Is the ChatGPT training also delivered in English?

Yes. The ChatGPT training is delivered at the client's location, in English or Dutch.

What will you learn?

A ChatGPT training with me isn’t about tricks or lists of a hundred prompts. It’s about the skills that keep working, even once the tool changes again next quarter. And it’s about your own work: I gather three to five tasks per role beforehand, and those become the practice material.

Participants learn to:

• Write better prompts: supply role, context, an example and the format you want, and improve an answer by probing further. The background to this is in the knowledge-base article on prompt engineering.
• Capture recurring work: using custom GPTs and projects, so you don’t have to give the same explanation every time.
• Check outputs: ChatGPT writes convincingly, even when it’s wrong. Participants practise checking facts, sources and figures.
• Work safely: which data doesn’t belong in a tool, the difference between a personal account and a business environment, and what the internal agreements are.
• Choose: which tasks genuinely save time with ChatGPT, and which cost more in oversight than they save.

That distinction between personal and business use isn’t a detail. According to OpenAI itself, content from its consumer services can be used to train models, unless the user turns that off via the “Improve the model for everyone” setting. For the business plans, such as ChatGPT Business and ChatGPT Enterprise, OpenAI states on its enterprise privacy page that company data isn’t used for training by default (as of September 2026). What the different plans offer is covered in “ChatGPT for business” in the knowledge base.

Who is it for?

A ChatGPT training is intended for teams and professionals who work a lot with text, information and communication. Think policy staff, marketing and communications, sales, HR, legal departments, project leads and management support. No technical background is needed.

The training is a good fit when:

• staff already use ChatGPT, but each in their own way and without any agreed rules;
• you’ve bought, or are considering, a business subscription, and want it actually used;
• you want to know which tasks suit ChatGPT before rolling it out more widely.

Does your organisation mainly run on Microsoft 365? Then a Copilot training makes more sense, since Copilot sits inside your existing apps and documents. If teams use both, we combine that into a single programme.

Want everyone in the organisation to first share a common understanding of what AI is and what the risks are? Start with an AI literacy training. The ChatGPT training builds on that.

Programme

I don’t work from a fixed programme. An in-company ChatGPT training might look like this, for example:

1. How it worksWhat a language model does, where it goes wrong, and what that means for oversight.
2. Better promptsPractise with structure, examples and probing further.
3. Your own workWork through three to five tasks per role using your own material, without confidential data.
4. GPTs and projectsCapture recurring tasks for the team.
5. Agreements and follow-upWhat's allowed, who's the point of contact, and what everyone tries over the following weeks.

I deliver the training at your location, in English or Dutch. We agree the programme in a short intake. The training is priced as a fixed fee; you hear the amount beforehand and get it confirmed in writing. How I build up my prices is explained under pricing.

The most important part of the training happens afterwards: people need to be able to apply what they’ve practised in their own work the following week. That’s why I close with concrete agreements per role, and an owner within the team who follows up on usage. Other formats, such as a management introduction or one-to-one coaching, cover the rest of what I offer under AI workshops and training.
