PÄRNU – Practical workshop: AI in office work

Friday afternoon: 40 e-mails in the inbox, and yesterday's meeting summary is needed by morning. How much of that could AI do? The workshop is for anyone who writes letters, drafts documents, fills in tables or plans work, from assistants to managers. The level is basic, suitable for beginners.

The format is 3 hours (4 academic hours) in two parts with a break. Part one covers how AI works, where it saves time, data protection and responsibility. Part two is practical: you turn meeting notes into a draft of the minutes and check the result. Afterwards you will be able to write a prompt that gives a usable draft, turn notes into minutes and a long document into a short summary, compose a reply to a letter and adjust its tone, and use AI when building a table or work plan.

Before the workshop, bring one real work task (for example meeting notes) without personal data, and a laptop or smartphone; the free versions of ChatGPT, Copilot or Gemini are enough. The trainer is Henrik Aavik, a technology entrepreneur and AI developer, managing director of Sixty Four OÜ and co-founder of the AI public-procurement platform Tendly. In 2026 he worked as an AI expert at the Ministry of Social Affairs. He has trained ministry staff, kindergarten teachers and company specialists. Participation is free, places are limited, register via Fienta. Part of Arunädal and the Eesti.ai initiative "The most AI-smart nation".

Thursday 19 November, 18:00–21:00, Tervise Paradiis spa hotel & water centre, Side 14, Pärnu.
