When institutions know AI matters but are not yet aligned, a sprint creates the bridge between conversation and action.
Navigate AI sprints are short, defined engagements designed to clarify priorities, surface friction points, produce concrete deliverables, and give leadership a clearer path forward. This is not six months of ambiguity. It is a bounded piece of work with a practical output.
Five named formats. Each built for a specific kind of institutional need.
These are not identical workshops with different titles. Each format is designed around a different audience, urgency level, and desired output. Most take a few hours to a few days — not months.
A half-day to full-day session that moves a faculty group from broad AI curiosity into shared language, practical use cases, and redesign confidence. Best for departments, colleges, or cohort launch sessions.
A structured 1–3 day engagement that helps leadership teams clarify AI policy direction, identify institutional risk areas, and produce a practical governance roadmap. Best for provost offices, academic affairs, or CTL leadership.
A half-day to full-day session helping GenEd leads, QEP teams, or program directors define student AI fluency outcomes and map a realistic implementation path. Produces an initial student fluency model and next-step plan.
A focused 3–4 hour working session where faculty redesign 1–3 existing assignments using the META framework. Produces actual revised assignments faculty can use the next term. Best as a CTL-led cohort follow-up or workshop offering.
A 2–3 hour session that helps a leadership team — deans, chairs, department heads, or a CTL advisory group — align on AI priorities, policy direction, and institutional next steps. Produces a shared language document and action priorities list.
Tell us who the audience is, what the urgency is, and what outcome you need. We'll recommend the right format and scope it clearly before anything is confirmed.
Practical. Intensive. Outcome-oriented.
These offers exist for a simple reason: many campuses need a strong starting point or a fast activation format, but they still want outputs that can travel beyond the room.
Bounded
The sprint is intentionally limited in scope and time. That makes it easier to launch, easier to support internally, and easier to turn into action.
Focused
The work is designed around the actual question the institution is wrestling with, not a generic AI strategy template.
Actionable
The end of the sprint should produce clearer owners, sharper priorities, and artifacts that can support the next decision.
Every bootcamp or workshop should leave the institution with more than slides and good intentions.
Formats can be adapted to audience and scope, but the design principle is consistent: every session should create usable artifacts, clearer alignment, or practical next steps.
These formats are most useful when the institution needs activation, alignment, or redesign - and wants something more practical than a keynote.
Scope the audience and desired outcome
Confirm whether the need is faculty activation, leadership alignment, department redesign, or student fluency support.
Deliver the core session experience
Run the bootcamp, workshop, or design lab with the right balance of framing, practical application, and guided decision-making.
Capture artifacts and decisions
Document redesigned ideas, shared language, priority moves, or implementation notes while the work is still fresh.
Follow-through plan
Provide a summary, agenda, or roadmap showing what should happen next so the work continues after the session.
Ready for a bootcamp or workshop that creates real movement?
Use a bootcamp or workshop when your campus needs activation, redesign, or alignment - and wants visible next-step outputs instead of another ambient conversation.
