AI Workshop & Upskilling Summit: From AI Confusion to Real Capability in One Day

Code Her Rising presents the AI Workshop & Upskilling Summit, powered by Disruptive AI, with a guest educator leading the Vibe Coding Intensive.

If you feel like AI is moving fast and you are not fully keeping up, this experience is designed for you.

This is not a lecture. This is a structured, hands-on training designed to help you understand, apply, and begin building with AI in a single day.

Who This Is For

  • Individuals who feel overwhelmed by the number of AI tools and want clear direction
What You Will Walk Away With

By the end of this experience, you will:

  • Understand how AI is reshaping business, work, and opportunity
  • Know the difference between automation, AI agents, and intelligent systems
  • Have a clear framework for where AI applies to your work or goals
  • Gain hands-on experience using AI to solve real problems
  • Learn which tools are worth using and how to use them
  • Build your first AI-powered workflow, website, or simple application
  • Leave with the confidence to continue using and experimenting with AI
Important: This Is a Hands-On Experience

Agenda

10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

From AI Confusion to AI Clarity, Strategy, and Real-World Application

Signature Keynote: Why AI Is Bigger Than the Advent of the Internet

Led by Seema Alexander, Founder and CEO, Disruptive AI, Host of AI CEO Podcast, and International Keynote Speaker

This session reframes how AI is changing the way businesses operate and how individuals create leverage.

In this session, you will:

  • Understand why AI represents a structural shift, not just a technology trend
  • Learn how to operate in the “Yes-And” era by optimizing what exists while reimagining what is possible
  • Distinguish between automation, AI agents, and intelligent systems
  • Start to move from AI-curious to AI-empowered

Interactive Application: Applying AI to Real-World Contexts :This first session concludes with a guided application designed to help you translate insight into action.

12:30 PM – 2:00 PM

Session 2: AI Tools Lab — From Overwhelmed to Practical Application

Led by Disruptive AI

There are thousands of AI tools available. This session focuses on the ones that matter and how to use them effectively.

Hands-On AI Tools Lab

This is a guided, step-by-step working session.

In this session, you will:

  • Learn how to use AI tools for research, productivity, and workflow support
  • Understand which tools are relevant to your needs
  • Follow structured exercises using real tools
  • Begin building simple AI-assisted workflows

Tools You Will Work With

Participants will gain hands-on experience with:

  • NotebookLM for research, synthesis, and structured thinking
  • Google Gemini for multimodal reasoning and productivity
  • Manus AI for emerging workflow automation and experimentation

2:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Session 3: Vibe Coding Intensive — From User to Builder

This session is designed to move you from using AI tools to building with them.

Vibe Coding Intensive

Led by guest educator Addy De La Cruz, CEO of Clarity App, this session introduces a practical approach to building with AI using natural language.

In this session, you will:

  • Learn how to build with AI without a technical background
  • Understand how to translate ideas into functional outputs
  • Create a simple:
    • Website
    • Application or tool
    • AI-powered workflow
  • Work through guided exercises to produce a working prototype

What to Expect

  • Step-by-step instruction
  • Hands-on building
  • Real-time experimentation
Investment and Value

This is not a typical workshop.

The frameworks, tools, and hands-on training in this experience are comparable to programs that typically cost $1000s of dollars.

This training is being offered at $199 to make it accessible—but the expectation is that participants show up ready to engage, apply, and build.

If you are looking for passive learning, this is not the right environment.

If you are ready to invest in building real capability with AI, this experience is designed to deliver a meaningful return on your time and attention.

End-of-Day Outcome

This experience is structured in three stages:

  • Clarity
  • Capability
  • Creation

Come join us this Saturdsay ---and leave with a clear understanding of AI, practical experience using it, and the ability to begin building with it immediately.
