Applied AI CompetencyPrivate in-house training for employers and their employees

Complete courses: $12,500 plus GST for up to eight employees. Twelve live teaching hours, online in sessions or in person over two days, with applied work and assessment requirements. Each additional employee is $2,500 plus GST. Focused virtual options start at $4,500 plus GST.
Built for Alberta's trades, oilfield services, and the offices behind them.
What to expect
Learn it on real work. Show that it holds.
- Choose the right work. Confirm the employee's readiness, manager support, and the task the company wants to improve.
- Learn and apply. Live instruction and supervised application use your company's approved tools and accounts.
- Meet the standard. Employees receive a Cornerstone course certificate after meeting the attendance, applied work, and assessment requirements. A Cornerstone certificate shows your employee met our course requirements. It is not a government accreditation or a professional licence.
Courses are delivered by Cornerstone facilitators. Instructor qualifications and delivery arrangements are provided with your training plan. About Cornerstone.
The people behind the work
Keep the people who know your company. Upgrade the way they work.
Your long-serving employees know your customers, your crews, and the details that keep the office running. That knowledge has taken years to build. As the tools change, those people deserve a practical way to learn what comes next.
Cornerstone brings modern technology into the work your team already does. We teach employees how to use approved AI tools, check the answers, work with company information carefully, and build digital systems another person can follow.
These are practical technical skills. Employees practise on an agreed work task: a customer update, a job-cost report, a daily routine, or a handover. The course you choose determines the skills and the work they produce.
Our purpose is to help the people you value carry their experience into a changing workplace, with patient instruction, plain language, and time to practise.

Picture the person who has kept your office running for years.
You know who I mean. The one who remembers what the customer needs, spots the missing detail, and knows what to do when the plan changes.
Now there is an AI button in the software they use every day. You don't want to lose their experience. You want to help them use the new tools with confidence.
Here is where I would start: one real task they already understand. A customer update. A job-cost report. A handover. Then practise the new way of doing it, check the result, and make sure they can do it again.
That is the approach behind Cornerstone's private team training. You choose the course and how much your team needs to cover: a focused online workshop, a deeper practice session, or the complete course.

Funding for employers
Find out what you can apply for before you commit.
Eligible Alberta employers may apply to the Canada-Alberta Productivity Grant. The current employed-trainee cap is $5,000 per fiscal year, within the employer's annual limit. The contribution depends on eligible costs and available limits.
Funding is decided by the Government of Alberta. We can't guarantee approval, and we never cover or refund the employer's share.
The person you already trust
Fourteen years of experience. A new set of tools.
An illustration adapted from the earlier website, not a client story.
Picture the dispatcher who has kept your schedule running for fourteen years. She knows which customer needs a call before the crew arrives and which driver can handle a difficult site.
Now the company has AI in its email, documents, or scheduling software. Knowing the work and knowing the new tool are two different things. She may need someone to sit alongside her, explain it clearly, and practise a task she recognizes.
The training starts there: use the tool on an approved example, check the facts, keep customer information where it belongs, and decide what still needs a person's judgment. Her experience is part of the lesson.
The aim is a valued employee who can carry what she knows into the next way of working.

Built from the problems real companies faced.
Earlier business engagements showed what happens when everyday work lives in one person's head. Those experiences informed the courses we now teach.

A useful session should help someone do a real task, check the result, and repeat it after the trainer leaves.
