A few words from our tutor on what you can expect from this course

Course Description

• Pick the Right Workflow • Stay Within the Rules • Leave with a 30-day Pilot

Your team has tried AI. Now put it to work. 92% of Irish organisations are using or planning to use AI, but only 10% call themselves advanced. What closes the gap is method: knowing which job to give AI, how to check its work, and which rules apply.

This one-day workshop is built around the work you already do. Pick one workflow in the morning. Build a prompt for it after lunch. Leave with a 30-day pilot your firm can actually run.

You work in role-based tracks (Delivery, Commercial and Leadership) on a fictional project pack we supply: site minutes, programmes, tender returns, registers and commissioning trackers, each with planted problems for AI to find. No real project data needed.

No lecture. No vendor pitch. Every session ends with something you can use on Monday.

Topics

Morning Session

  • AI in 2026: what is real, what is hype, and why most pilots stall
  •  The rules that apply to you: EU AI Act, Ireland and RICS
  • The core workflow: Extract, Structure, Summarise, Verify
  • Lab 1: site minutes to weekly report, actions and notices

Afternoon Session

  •  From chat to repeatable workflow
  • Track labs: build your own workflow prompt
  • Final workshop: your pilot, then the company pilot board
  • Commitments and close

Pre-requisites

Before the day:

  • Set up a free account on claude.ai, or bring Copilot, ChatGPT or Gemini, and check you can log in
  • No need to bring project files. We supply a fictional data pack for every exercise
  • Think of one weekly task that eats your time.That is your starting point
  • Come ready to work. You will test AI on real tasks, not watching slides

Detailed preparation instructions will be sent to registered attendees in advance of the course.

Who Should Attend

This course is for construction professionals who know AI is relevant but haven’t yet embedded it in their day-to-day work. It is designed as a practical workshop, not an awareness lecture.

It is particularly suited to:

  • Project managers and construction managers who want to use AI for reporting, programme analysis, meeting actions, and project controls — not just search engines
  • Quantity surveyors and commercial professionals looking at AI for tender review, scope analysis, BoQ interrogation, variation support, and contract risk
  • Architects, engineers, and BIM professionals who want to understand how AI connects to model data, coordination workflows, and quality assurance
  • Directors and senior managers responsible for AI governance, EU AI Act compliance, and deciding where to invest in AI adoption

The course focuses on practical use cases, real-world examples, and where AI can add value today, rather than technical development or programming.

This course is not intended as:

  • Advanced training on specialist estimating, scheduling, or engineering software
  • A programming or coding course
  • Detailed instruction on building or configuring AI systems
  • A product demo or vendor pitch

Participants looking for deep technical or software-specific AI training may be better suited to bespoke, in-house courses.

This course may qualify for CPD points. Please check directly with your association or awarding body to see how many points they will award.

Commonly Asked Questions

How is artificial intelligence used in the construction sector?

AI is used to support tasks such as document handling, reporting, data analysis and administrative efficiency in construction environments.

Why does AI adoption raise specific issues in construction?

Construction projects involve contractual risk, regulatory requirements and reliance on accurate information, making AI use sensitive.

What risks are associated with AI use in construction?

Risks include inaccurate outputs, data protection concerns and inappropriate reliance on automated tools.

Why is oversight important when using AI on projects?

AI tools do not replace professional judgement and require human review to manage risk effectively.

How does this course relate to AI in construction?

This course examines the use of AI tools within a construction and project delivery context.
