Handle Academy

Learn how to
Handle AI
in your
business.

Learn where AI fits in your operations, which kind of system makes sense and whether the business case stacks up. Then put your strategy to work by training and testing a Handler — an AI worker — on a real process. No Handle experience needed.

AI Strategy

Make AI earn its place.

Helping individual staff work faster can leave the business no better off. Map real business processes, identify work AI employees should do, and what should remain human.

Keep the brief and business case. Use them to assess other AI tools, too.

AI employee job brief

The bottleneck, what good work looks like and the limits of AI's job.

Business case

“More efficient” is meaningless unless you can materialise the gains. Learn the levers to pull to make AI worthwhile.

Operating plan

Who owns the work, what data AI can reach and which decisions stay with people.

Practical Application

Train and manage a Handler.

With a human tutor, learn to train and manage AI just like your staff.

Compare briefs, tests and lessons with your cohort.

A Handler you've trained and tested

Trained in Handle on your process, tested against your brief and refined around AI's limits.

Handle credits included

For your use of Handle throughout the course.

Exclusive Handler discounts

If you hire Handlers after completing the course.

Support from the builders

Direct from the Handle team, throughout the course.

Six weeks. One real business process.

Watch: a 15-minute recorded chapter each week.

Discuss: a weekly 30-minute, face-to-face small-group tutorial with a human tutor.

Train: develop your brief and business case, then train and test your Handler between sessions.

Tutorials run on fixed dates. The schedule is still to be confirmed.

Start with AI Strategy: map the work, choose a suitable AI system and make the business case. Apply it by training a Handler, testing the work and revising the plan as you learn.

  1. AI Strategy starts here

    Week 1

    Find work worth delegating

    Map how work gets done, who is responsible and where it stalls. Assess which kind of AI system could help, then scope one job worth testing.

    Week 2

    Make the business case

    Establish the current cost and constraint. Weigh the potential benefit against setup, oversight and operating costs. Define what would justify proceeding.

  2. Week 3

    Train your first Handler

    Supply your business context, test the work and establish what the named manager needs to review.

  3. Week 4

    Security, access and sharing

    Understand the risks of delegating work to AI workers — data, access and accountability — and how to mitigate them.

  4. Week 5

    Manage the work

    Review outputs, handle exceptions and refine the Handler. Work out how much ongoing attention it needs — and whether that changes the economics.

  5. Week 6

    Work across systems and manage usage

    Use Handle's code tools across multiple integrations, move larger datasets with files, create and share Handbooks, and manage credit use.
