Prototyping with AI
13th May 2026, 10 AM – 5 PM | Dryden Enterprise Centre Boardroom at Nottingham Trent University
Hosted in partnership with Product Market Hit
Enterprise education is changing fast. Founders can now validate ideas, build functional prototypes, and gather real user feedback in a matter of hours using AI and no-code tools. Yet many enterprise programmes still rely on processes designed for a pre-AI world.
Prototyping with AI is a highly practical, one-day training designed to help enterprise educators and support professionals confidently integrate AI-enabled rapid validation into their programmes. You will learn a clear, structured workflow that takes a founder from a defined customer problem to a testable prototype and real feedback, all within hours. This session focuses on practical application, ethical use, and measurable progress. You will leave with tools, methods, and language you can immediately embed into your teaching or support practice.
Why this course, now?
Startup support has shifted dramatically. AI tools allow founders to test ideas faster and at significantly lower cost than ever before. Without adapting to this shift, programmes risk slower validation cycles, wasted effort and resources, difficulty demonstrating commercial impact and reduced competitiveness in enterprise education.
Rapid prototyping and structured validation allow founders to learn faster, pivot sooner, and focus only on opportunities with real demand. For educators and programme leaders, this means clearer evidence of progress, better allocation of limited support resources, higher founder success rates and stronger accountability and institutional credibility.
This course will give educators a powerful approach to transform the early stages of enterprise development. It introduces a transparent way to measure progress through observable behaviours and real user signals, rather than expensive outputs designed to impress. This strengthens programme accountability, partner confidence, and institutional reputation.
For EEUK Members, the training directly supports strategic goals: higher founder success rates, stronger impact measures, more efficient delivery, and education that reflects entrepreneurial reality in the age of AI.
Who is it for?
This session is designed for:
- Teaching staff and academics who want to confidently enable students to use AI ethically within enterprise education and assessment.
- Enterprise and entrepreneurship support staff work directly with founders who want to stay current with AI tools and integrate them into ideation, validation, and product-market fit processes.
- Professionals responsible for demonstrating impact, traction, and responsible use of limited programme resources
What will you learn?
You will leave the course able to:
- Understand how AI and no-code tools reshape early product development and validation.
- Translate problems into testable prototypes quickly without technical skills.
- Use tools for interfaces, messaging, simple functionality, and structured feedback.
- Coach founders in low-cost experiments that uncover real demand and reduce waste.
- Track progress using validated behaviours that show commercial potential rather than polished assumptions.
Participants leave with an understanding of tech & tools, and are able to implement the workflow immediately, improving founder performance and providing visible success indicators for EEUK members.
What’s included?
- A full day of practical, hands-on training
- Structured workflow templates and tool recommendations
- Refreshments and Lunch
