OBVS EDUCATION STUDIO
Understand what’s changing.
Put it to work.
A place for OBVS clients and their teams to understand the changing digital landscape. We share what we know through visual explanations, worked examples, and practical decisions, so you can make better use of AI, search, and agentic systems in your own work.

THE LANDSCAPEFour connected areas. Practical understanding.
01 / UNDERSTANDAIBuild useful understandingSee an example
Understand what AI can do, where it needs context, and when to check its work.
For exampleCompare two AI answers and decide which claims need evidence before a client sees them.
02 / BE FOUNDSEOMake your expertise discoverableSee an example
Connect search intent, useful content, and the structure that helps people find your business.
For exampleTurn a broad topic into a page that answers a real customer question.
03 / BE UNDERSTOODAEOHelp answer systems understand youSee an example
Explore answer engine optimisation: how clear, credible information helps AI systems interpret a business.
For exampleRewrite a vague service description with clear facts, evidence, and direct answers.
04 / DIRECT THE WORKAgenticGive AI work direction and oversightSee an example
Learn how agents use tools and follow a brief, and how to supervise the work they produce.
For exampleSet the boundaries for a research agent and decide where a human should review its findings.
WHAT WE WANT YOU TO LEAVE WITH
Understanding you can use. Judgment you can explain.
Know what to question.
Separate a confident answer from a supported one. Recognise limitations, ask for evidence, and decide when human review matters.
Put learning into practice.
Turn an idea into a clear assignment, a useful check, or a repeatable way of working. Use realistic examples to practise before applying it.

MANAGING AI AGENTS · PRIVATE COURSE
Managing
AI Agents
Learn to brief, supervise, and evaluate AI agents. Start with one useful assignment, then build toward coordinating a team while keeping decisions, evidence, and responsibility clear.
- 8 visual foundations, explained with examples
- 10 levels of practice, failure labs, and capstones
- Practical templates and a diagnostic starting point

A SMALL SYSTEM. A CLEAR PURPOSE.
You set the purpose. Agents carry out the work.
You evaluate the evidence and direct the next step.
WHAT IS TAUGHT
From understanding to oversight.
Open each part to see the focus and the practical result. Start with a diagnostic, then use the foundations and practice levels to build your judgment.
01 / Understand the foundations
Explore how models answer, how agents act, what tools allow, and how context and memory affect the work. Learn to write clear assignments, communicate changes, choose sequential or parallel work, and evaluate results.
You practise: explaining how an agent works, what it knows, and what it is allowed to do.
02 / Direct and evaluate the work
Move through ten levels of practice with bounded assignments, evidence checks, failure labs, and capstones. Decide when to continue, revise the brief, escalate a question, or stop the work.
You practise: giving a useful brief, inspecting evidence, and making a defensible next decision.
03 / Build a way of working
Use templates for assignments, checkpoints, handoffs, and review. Visual labs and a teaching sandbox let you explore decisions; tutor-ready prompts help you carry the practice into your AI chat.
You practise: a set of briefs and checks you can adapt to your own projects and team.
HOW THE STUDIO WILL GROW
A growing library.
A connected view.
AI at work, search foundations, and AI search and answers are planned next. These courses are not yet open. Over time, studio access may be included in OBVS client packages or offered as individual courses.
