At AnaVation, we believe continuous learning is key to personal and professional growth. Education in the Evening is our monthly learning series designed to provide AnaVators with opportunities to expand their knowledge, explore emerging technologies, and share expertise in a collaborative setting. These sessions, led “by AnaVators, for AnaVators” cover a wide range of topics—from technical deep dives to soft skills development—offering practical insights that can be applied both at work and beyond.
The latest Education in the Evening featured an engaging and insightful ChatGPT Crash Course, presented by one of our AnaVators, Emma G. The virtual session was designed to expose beginners to the tool’s capabilities and inspire experienced users to leverage Dynamic Response Engines for creative applications in everyday work and personal projects. Emma shared her own experiences leveraging ChatGPT for taskings, coursework, and personal endeavors, emphasizing responsible usage and ethical considerations. A key highlight of the session was an interactive activity demonstrating best practices for using AI-powered tools like ChatGPT effectively and responsibly, with a focus on their application in the Government Contracting space. One demo involved using ChatGPT to generate queries that helped build and optimize a Jira dashboard. This example sparked a brainstorming challenge amongst our AnaVators, encouraging them to consider how AI could enhance their own workflows and problem-solving approaches.
Overall, the session was met with enthusiastic engagement, with participants exploring different ways to interact with ChatGPT and observing how unique prompts led to diverse, yet equally functional, results. Many expressed interest in future sessions that delve deeper into AI, machine learning, and other generative models. Thank you to Emma for providing a practical and introductory session on this technology to the team!
