AI Workshops & AI Readiness Training.
Hands-on, role-based training that prepares residents, workers, and nonprofit teams to adopt AI responsibly — from everyday Copilot use to organization-wide governance.
Pilot program: AI Workshops are actively being designed and launched in cohorts. Specialty curricula (like AI+ Microsoft 365 Copilot HR) are delivered through PMUF's AI CERTs partnership. Schedules and seats expand with funding and partner support.
AI readiness, not AI hype.
PMUF's AI Workshops are structured programs that prepare people and organizations to adopt, implement, and govern AI effectively and responsibly. We combine national-standard curricula with the community-rooted delivery our neighbors actually need — so a small nonprofit, an HR team, or a first-time learner can all leave with something they can use Monday morning.
- Understand AI fundamentals and risks
- Evaluate organizational AI preparedness
- Implement AI securely and ethically
- Align with compliance and governance standards
- Foster human + AI collaboration
Four pillars every workshop reinforces.
AI Fundamentals & Risks
Plain-language grounding in how modern AI works, where it fails, and what 'responsible use' actually means in day-to-day work.
Security & Compliance
Aligning AI adoption with standards like SOC 2, HIPAA, and ISO — including secure deployment and ongoing monitoring.
Governance Frameworks
Practical readiness assessments across five pillars: technology, compliance, DevOps, user training, and data readiness.
Human + AI Collaboration
AI is treated as a workforce skill, not a replacement — boosting productivity while keeping humans in the loop.
AI+ Microsoft 365 Copilot — HR Specialty.
A practitioner intensive that equips HR professionals to use Microsoft 365 Copilot across recruitment, onboarding, performance management, and employee engagement — with ethics and human oversight built into every module.
Prerequisites — designed for working HR pros.

The rise of AI in HR, Copilot across Word/Excel/Outlook/Teams, Microsoft Graph and secure data use, plus an intro to ethical AI in hiring.
Core Copilot Skills for Everyday HR
Drafting inclusive job descriptions, offer letters, onboarding kits, sensitive communications, and a human-review checklist that keeps outputs compliant.
Advanced Copilot in Strategic HR
Automating the recruitment pipeline, summarizing performance reviews, automating Teams meetings, designing surveys, workforce planning, and Power BI integration.
Designing HR Agents with Copilot Studio
Building an HR Helpdesk Agent and a Recruitment FAQ Agent — connected to Teams and SharePoint — for consistent, on-demand employee answers.
Prompt Optimization & HRIS Integration
Context-rich prompt crafting plus integrations with HRIS platforms like Workday and BambooHR for real-time, secure HR workflows.
Responsible AI — Policy, Safety & Trust
Fairness, transparency, data protection with Microsoft Purview, mitigating bias and hallucinations, and operationalizing Responsible AI in HR.
Capstone — End-to-End HR with Copilot
Participants design a full HR workflow (recruitment, onboarding, or performance) using Copilot across Microsoft 365 — measured on automation, consistency, and human oversight.
Built on governance, not guesswork.
Every PMUF workshop frames AI use inside a clear governance posture: ethical principles in practice, data protection and compliance (including tools like Microsoft Purview), and explicit checks for bias, hallucination, and human oversight. Participants leave with a framework they can apply at home and operationalize at work.
Designed for three audiences.
Community Members
Residents building AI confidence for school, work, and everyday life.
Nonprofit Teams
Mission-driven staff who need responsible, low-cost AI adoption.
