Institute for
Artificial
Intelligence
AI education that fits into 10 hours. Tomorrow morning you work differently. Most people have tried AI. Far fewer use it every day.
The difference isn’t talent or prior knowledge. It’s whether someone sat down next to you and said: “Here, this is how.“
That’s what the Institute for AI is for. A private platform for learning how artificial intelligence works in your job. One mentor, your real problem, AI that starts working for you. No lectures. No slides. You open your laptop, you work, and you leave with tools you start using tomorrow morning.
People who finish the workshop don’t ask “can AI help.“ They ask why they didn’t start sooner.
The founder is Patricija Topić, a doctoral researcher focused on what most people skip: how organizations actually adopt AI. She started from the same place you’re in: she knew AI could do something, but not where to begin. The Institute runs AI education for company teams and advises organizations on EU AI Act compliance: risk assessment, classification of AI systems, internal policies.

HANDS-ON
€75010 hours of hands-on work · individual feedback · a personal action plan · access to materials
5 sessions · 2h per week · scheduling that fits you
-
01
Vibe CodingYou describe what you want in plain language. AI writes the code. In one afternoon you watch your first app run. Without writing a single line yourself.
-
02
AI as your personal assistantEmails, presentations, summaries, translations. The tasks that eat half your day, done in minutes. You just review and send them on.
-
03
The right tools for your workClaude, ChatGPT, Copilot. There are too many to test on your own. You try them all in one session and leave knowing exactly which tool to use for what.
-
04
Your data, your answersYou upload a spreadsheet, ask a question in plain language, and get an answer: a chart, a trend, an anomaly. No formulas. No pivot tables. No Googling “how to do a VLOOKUP.“
-
05
Your plan for MondayThe last session ends with a concrete list: which tool, for which task, starting which date. Not a motivational speech. A checklist that starts working on the very next workday.

SUPERHUMAN DEPARTMENT
€6.000A single junior developer costs more per year. This program raises the whole team.
Claude Code training for developers: how to set up the environment, adapt the workflow, and move from classic programming to AI-driven development. On your projects. With your code. On production tasks from day one.
Who is behind
the Institute for AI
Patricija Topić, a doctoral researcher studying how people and organizations actually start using AI. The resistance, the mistakes, the breakthroughs. And the moment a team stops talking about AI and starts working with it.
Her job isn’t to lecture about artificial intelligence. Her job is to turn complex concepts into something you can start applying right away. And actually do.
The technical side of the program is led by a team with 20+ years of experience in software development, system architecture, and AI implementations in production. They know the difference between a demo that impresses and a system that works when no one is watching.

What participants say
Firsthand experiences. No filter.
“Working with Patricija was a real „game changer“ for me. The way she shares her knowledge of AI tools, ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, is simple, logical and encouraging. What’s especially valuable is her willingness to keep supporting you after the training ends. After working with her I felt like I was starting over, but this time on much firmer, clearer ground.“
“Three of us from the same company, three completely different jobs. One colleague now builds databases in a day instead of a week. Another puts out articles and translations twice as fast. I have an organizing assistant that never takes a break. The bottlenecks between phases are gone.“
“Exams, presentations, teaching materials, individual assignments for students. AI gave me back the hours I used to lose on prep. I now spend those hours doing what made me become a teacher in the first place. The result: students more engaged, and me at CUC 2026.“

“A team of 5, one outspoken skeptic – convinced „AI is nonsense.“ 100% adoption rate across the whole team three months after the training. The training was deeply practical, focused on concrete steps rather than generic examples. What I want to stress – the effect wasn’t short-lived. AI is still actively built into our daily workflow, and our use and discovery of new use cases keeps growing.“
“The whole team went through the training. For one colleague, a task that used to take 8 hours is now done in an hour. Furniture design, factory prep, design – every department found its own saving.“
“At IEDC we teach leaders how to drive AI transformation. The irony: until recently I used a single tool. Now I use four, every day, and I don’t plan to stop there. That personal experience is what makes me understand best how fast this change is coming, and how important it is that leaders don’t watch it from the sidelines but actively live it and shape it.“

“In category management every Monday looks the same: ten things on your desk you needed to do yesterday and too few hours in the day. After Patricija’s workshop, for the first time I feel the data is working for me, not me for it. A category analysis done before my second coffee, prep for a supplier meeting before I reach the office, a monthly report in three clicks instead of half a day. What convinced me wasn’t a single ‘wow’ demo, but the fact that by Monday morning I was already using everything I’d learned on Friday, without the usual ‘when I get the time.’“
“I run the fleet for an international ship manager, and before the training 70% of my week was email, documentation and coordination with crews, shipyards and classification societies. In this line of work one badly worded technical request means a ship at a standstill, so I read every letter twice. Patricija understood that. Within two weeks I automated three things I’d done by hand for years: weekly fleet reports, translating technical instructions for the crew into three languages, incident summaries for management. Six months on, I have one more day a week for work that needs my head, not my fingers.“
“In medicine you have no room to experiment. That’s why it mattered that someone walked us through AI in a structured way, on our own processes, with a clear protocol. The whole team uses the tools every day, three months after the training.“
