​@Courtney-Community Manager I started by curating a list of LinkedIn Learning trainings that focused on AI-assisted search for sourcing. We selected four trainings (one training a month) from LinkedIn Learning and then held teach-back sessions—each facilitated by a different team member who shared their key takeaways. This approach not only personalized the learning journey but also fostered knowledge sharing and deeper engagement across the group. It’s been a great way to build confidence around AI upskilling in our workplace. 

We introduced monthly AI learning circles where each team member explores a different LinkedIn Learning course and then shares key insights in a short group session. This peer-led approach has made AI learning more engaging, collaborative, and easy to apply in daily work. It’s helped build confidence and curiosity across the team.

We are taking a crawl, walk, run approach. We started our crawl two years ago with AI Cohorts The focus was to have each cohort complete some baseline AI training content, and then to start to play with Generative AI. After some experimentation each cohort would work to solve a business problem. The rule was, whether the approach worked or not, it was a win because there was a learning. Psychological Safety was paramount throughout the cohort. The walk was a formal AI Literacy program offering employees opportunities to complete AI courses and get certified through either LinkedIn Learning or Datacamp. The level of participation is a clear indicator that employees want to learn more. The run is just about with start with Agents and Agentics. 

We have multiple routes our employees can take to learn about AI in general and in their respective roles.  One of the first things we rolled out was an AI powered Slack bot that answered all sorts of questions about the company and eventually we updated it to allow for external/real-time web scraping use.  We’ve also created an AI bot creation SDK within Okta to allow our employee population to easily create their own AI assistants for all sorts or uses as well as easily integrate them into customized Slack channels.  In addition to these resources, we’ve created an AI Ambassador team that I have been lucky to have been selected to join, the team is comprised of people from all sorts of departments (not just engineers) who break into sub teams/groups to work on AI related projects to help advance all areas of the business. 

A couple examples of AI projects I’ve personally been able to work on are: 
(1) creating an AI Assistant/bot that reads referral resumes, then scans our careers page job descriptions and provides recommendations for open positions at our company and affiliated sibling/parent companies that might be of interest.
(2) creating an AI training program (powered by an AI chatbot), the idea here is to create a learning platform for new hires to learn about AI, what it is, how to use it, how NOT to use it, and to gain hands on experience with the tools/resources we have at our disposal and get them engaged within their first couple of weeks on the job.

We have recommended AI for Healthcare Course for all our staffs, created a learning path which focus on AI for Leaders and working on a monthly theme focus on AI literacy. 

​@Monica Mutter Wow - what an inspiring and structured approach to AI enablement! I love how you’ve embedded psychological safety as a foundation for experimentation and learning. The “crawl, walk, run” model is such a clear, scalable way to build literacy and confidence across the organization. It’s especially great to see that learning through failure is celebrated as a win - that mindset shift is key to sustainable innovation. Thanks for sharing this thoughtful framework - I’m sure many members here will find it relatable and motivating! Your badge has been awarded!

​@Sean Doyle This is an incredible example of empowering employees to learn by doing! From the AI Slack bot to the internal SDK and Ambassador program - it’s clear your organization is creating a true culture of experimentation. I especially love how your projects go beyond engineering and invite cross-functional collaboration - the referral resume assistant and AI onboarding program are fantastic use cases. Thanks for taking us behind the scenes of how you’re democratizing AI access and learning internally - really inspiring!

Hi ​@Shiab Great to ‘see’ you again! Such a smart and intentional approach to upskilling in a highly specialized field. I love that you’re tailoring AI learning paths by audience - from AI for Healthcare for all staff to AI for Leaders and monthly literacy themes. That layered structure ensures learning is relevant and ongoing. Thank you for sharing how you’re integrating AI education into your culture - it’s a great model for other industries to learn from! Report back on your monthly theme!

​@Ch Prathmesh Geetraj What an fun initiative! 👏 Your AI learning circles sound like the perfect blend of structure and creativity - peer-led, continuous, and practical. It’s inspiring to see how you’re making AI learning part of everyday collaboration! I’m a fan of ‘team’ learning and our team has done this several times with success (and maybe a little friendly competition). Thanks for sharing - your badge has been awarded!
