What corporate AI training does Quantana run?
One programme in two tiers, for executives and employees, in Australia, India and beyond, plus Train the Trainer to scale it across a large organisation. A half-day, in-person CxO Bootcamp for 6 to 10 leaders, delivered by Vishal Kumar, and Functional Cohorts of 20 to 30 people who meet online for six 60-minute sessions. Discovery calls and a pre-flight audit come first, and a governance layer runs across both. Everyone who completes the tasks gets a certificate of completion from Quantana. We quote a fixed fee per cohort, never per user.

The licences are the easy part.
In Copilot rollouts I see, the majority of seats go unused. With Claude, roughly half the seats sit unused before training, and close to none after. The difference is not the tool. It is whether anyone showed people a real task worth handing over, starting with the leaders.
That is why we train leaders first. A leader who has built something useful with AI on their own work makes it normal for the whole team.
How does corporate AI training work?
Three rules shape every session. We learn your business first. Everyone does the work themselves. And people leave able to repeat it on Monday.
What we recommend. For leadership teams, an in-person, half-day training on Claude and NotebookLM, including Claude skills (reusable instructions that automate a task you repeat), built around your company’s own work.
- Before
Discovery and tailoring
- Discovery calls with at least five leaders, so we understand the business
- A short pre-flight AI audit per leader
- We pick live examples from your own work and set up the tools and accounts
- On the day
Half a day, hands-on
- Three 60-minute working sessions in person at your office, for example 9 am to 2 pm with breaks, with the tools installed before you arrive
- Everyone works hands-on and completes every task themselves, so they leave comfortable using the tools
- Claude and NotebookLM on your own reports, emails and data, including building a first Claude skill
- After
Check-in and certificate
- A one-hour virtual check-in a week later: a show-and-tell of what people built, and fixes for what got stuck
- A certificate of completion from Quantana for everyone who completed the tasks
- Functional Cohorts for the teams, if you want to roll it out
Every participant who completes the tasks receives a certificate of completion from Quantana, as past cohorts have. It records that they did the work. It is not an accreditation from Anthropic, Google, Microsoft or any education body.
What does the full programme look like?
Leaders first, then every function, with the rules in place from day one.
Before anyone sits in a session, we learn how your business and your leaders work today.
- Discovery calls with at least five leaders, to understand the business and collect live examples from their own work
- A short pre-flight AI audit, about 15 minutes per leader: what they use, what they avoid, and where their week goes
- Content tailored to your company’s archetype: your industry, your workflows and how far along you are
- Tier 1
CxO Bootcamp
- Format
- In person, half a day: three 60-minute sessions
- Who
- 6 to 10 leaders
- Hands-on: every person completes the tasks themselves, on live examples from your business. Nobody just watches a demo
- We build with your real emails, reports and data, handled safely
- A one-hour virtual check-in a week later, and a certificate of completion from Quantana
- Delivered personally by Vishal Kumar
Outcome: Every leader leaves with a personal AI workflow stack and can drive adoption in their own team.
- Tier 2
Functional Cohort
- Format
- Six 60-minute live online sessions
- Who
- 20 to 30 people per cohort, private to your company and grouped by function: finance, HR, operations, sales and marketing
- Each session works on the function’s own tasks
- Weekly homework between sessions
- Peer review, so good workflows spread across the cohort
- A certificate of completion from Quantana for everyone who completes the tasks
Outcome: Each participant ships one production AI workflow.
- Usage guidelines. What can and cannot be done with AI, and who gets which tools.
- Data security in practice. Training and sharing switched off on enterprise accounts, and confidential data kept out of personal accounts.
- One approved tool stack. One set of tools the company supports, so people stop signing up for their own.
- Defending against AI-enabled fraud. How to spot fake invoices, cloned voices and deepfake video before anyone pays or approves.
Start from our free AI policy template, and see how to find and fix shadow AI without a ban.
Most companies start with one CxO Bootcamp and one or two Functional Cohorts, then roll out by function. The CxO Bootcamp is in person at your office; cohorts run live online, so people from different offices and countries can train together.
How does AI training scale across a large organisation?
Through Train the Trainer, our third offer. Vishal and the Quantana team train a group of leaders and AI champions, one per team or function. Champions complete the hands-on programme themselves, take a trainer track with a ready-to-use kit (session plans, exercises on your own examples, homework and a use-case library), co-deliver a first internal session with us, and then train their own teams. We check in and refresh the kit as Claude, Copilot and NotebookLM change.
Training reaches hundreds of people without hundreds of external sessions, knowledge stays in the company, and the rules on data and usage limits are taught the same way everywhere. See AI train the trainer.
After the training: Q Labs
Q Labs
Q Labs is our portal for Quantana training participants only. It holds past session recordings, the tools we actually use, and guides on the latest AI techniques. It is also where your certificate of completion lives.

What do people say about Vishal’s training?
From public LinkedIn recommendations, quoted as written.
I recently had the pleasure of attending Vishal’s AI Masterclass, and if you’re looking for an instructor who moves past the “hype-driven narratives” of the AI world to deliver real, actionable depth, he is the one. Vishal is an incredibly interactive and responsive lead who keeps the entire cohort engaged. … he is disciplined about the results and definitely makes us do our homework! In a field where many are just “chasing buzzwords,” Vishal focuses on the practical application of AI where accuracy and performance can actually be guaranteed. Highly recommended for anyone looking to master AI with an instructor who balances expertise with a great personality.
Charu PuriGlobal Marketing, Communications, PR, Content, AI for Business, Corporate Governance | IIM, IMT, IICALinkedIn recommendation, 13 February 2026 Vishal has been instrumental in helping me make AI a real part of my day-to-day work. He brings a clear, practical perspective … He’s helped me build my own skills with AI tools and develop custom, business-specific use cases that directly improve how I work … What I value most is his ability to turn broad AI ideas into tangible, useful applications that make sense for a small business like mine. If you’re looking to get genuine, actionable value from AI rather than just talk about it, Vishal is someone I’d strongly recommend.
Ritika KhetawatFounder | Ex Goldman | Ex Morgan Stanley | Business Valuation ServicesLinkedIn recommendation, 10 October 2025 Just attended an incredible AI Masterclass by Vishal! Already feeling like an AI expert and can’t wait to share my newfound knowledge with my network. Thanks, Vishal, for an amazing session!

Which tool should we train on?
- Claude
Claude training
For teams on Claude Team or Enterprise: projects, research, connectors, reusable skills, and Claude Code for developers.
Claude training - Microsoft 365
Microsoft Copilot training
For teams on Microsoft 365: Copilot in Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams and PowerPoint, Copilot Studio agents, and an adoption playbook.
Copilot training - Any tool
AI Academy
Leadership masterclasses, keynotes and bootcamps on Gemini, NotebookLM, n8n and more, whatever tools you use.
AI Academy
A simple rule: train on the tool your people already have. If you run on Microsoft 365 and bought Copilot, start with Copilot. If you chose Claude, or you are still deciding, my view as of 10 November 2026 is that Claude is the best all-round tool for analysis and business work. Many teams use both.
Who runs the training?
Vishal Kumar, Founder and CEO of Quantana, delivers every CxO Bootcamp personally. He is a Claude expert, has trained more than 10,000 professionals in AI, design thinking and storytelling over his career, has taught AI strategy to business leaders at London Business School, and has spoken as an industry practitioner at Carnegie Mellon University. Read his bio.
Functional Cohorts are led by Vishal or a Quantana AI trainer, such as Sayandeep Ghosh, our AI lead, who ran the AI literacy programme for 400+ employees at RP Sanjiv Goenka Group.
How is training priced?
A fixed fee per cohort, never per user. The quote depends on the tiers you choose, the number of cohorts and how much preparation on your own data is involved. If you are still working out what the licences themselves cost, our enterprise AI pricing guide has the vendor prices.

Corporate AI training, answered.
How does corporate AI training work?
We start with discovery calls with at least five leaders, so the session is built on live examples from your business. Leaders then spend a hands-on half day with us, in person, on Claude and NotebookLM, and every person completes the tasks themselves. A week later we run a one-hour check-in, and everyone who completed the tasks gets a certificate of completion from Quantana. Teams follow in online cohorts.
What happens in the discovery calls?
We speak with at least five of your leaders before the session. We learn how the business runs, where their week goes and which reports, emails and decisions take the most time. Those become the live examples people work on during the training, so nothing is generic.
What do participants get after the training?
Three things. A certificate of completion from Quantana for everyone who completed the tasks. Access to Q Labs, our participants-only portal with past session recordings, the tools we actually use and guides on the latest AI techniques. And the one-hour follow-up session a week later.
Do participants get a certificate?
Yes. Every participant who completes the tasks gets a certificate of completion from Quantana. It shows they did the hands-on work. It is not an accreditation from Anthropic, Google, Microsoft or any education body.
Do we need to bring our own data?
Bring real examples: a report, an email thread, a spreadsheet you work on every month. We handle them safely. Nothing confidential is uploaded to personal accounts, we use enterprise accounts with training and sharing switched off where you have them, and we show people how to keep it that way.
What does an enterprise AI training programme look like?
Three parts. A pre-flight with discovery calls with at least five leaders and a short AI audit per leader. Tier 1, a half-day in-person CxO Bootcamp for 6 to 10 leaders, building live with their own emails, reports and data. Tier 2, Functional Cohorts of 20 to 30 people over six 60-minute online sessions, where each person ships one production AI workflow. A governance layer runs across all of it.
Who has Quantana trained?
Recent programmes include sessions for CHROs and CFOs across Warburg Pincus portfolio companies, Claude Masterclasses for about 200 IIM Bangalore alumni, an AI literacy programme for 400+ employees at RP Sanjiv Goenka Group, and executive sessions at Avineon and Parksons Packaging. Vishal has also given keynotes at Ford AI Day in Chennai and the ISPMA SPM Summit at IIM Bangalore.
Should we train our team on Claude or Microsoft Copilot?
Train on the tool your people already have. If you run on Microsoft 365 and bought Copilot licences, Copilot training is the right call. If you chose Claude, or you are deciding, my view as of 10 November 2026 is that Claude is the best all-round tool for analysis and business work. Many teams use both, and we train both.
How much does AI training cost?
We quote training as a fixed fee per cohort, never per user. The fee depends on the tiers you choose, the number of cohorts and how much preparation on your own data is involved. Tell us your team size and tools and we will send a quote.
Who runs the training?
Vishal Kumar, Founder and CEO of Quantana, delivers every CxO Bootcamp personally. He is a Claude expert and has trained more than 10,000 professionals in AI, design thinking and storytelling over his career, including teaching AI strategy to business leaders at London Business School. Functional Cohorts are led by Vishal or a Quantana AI trainer, such as Sayandeep Ghosh, our AI lead.
Should AI training be in person or online?
For leaders, we recommend in person: a half day at your office, because leaders build faster in the same room and nobody drifts off to email. For teams, Functional Cohorts run live online, so people from different offices and countries can join the same cohort. Every session uses the team’s own work.
Is the training certified by Anthropic or Microsoft?
No. Quantana is an independent training provider and is not affiliated with Anthropic or Microsoft. Both vendors publish free self-paced courses, and we point your team to them. What we add is instructor-led practice on your own work, your policy and your data.
