English

What you'll learn

  • Turn AI from a chat into a repeatable working system: take 530+ ready AI prompts, templates, procedures and checklists in 112 downloadable resources
  • Frame a business problem before writing a requirement, with a business analyst interview script, a stakeholder register and a requirements elicitation tracker
  • Write user stories with acceptance criteria and keep requirements traceable with a requirements traceability matrix
  • Model AS-IS and TO-BE processes, describe them in BPMN and analyse the impact of a change request
  • Build prompts with a prompt architecture toolkit, a prompting technique selector and chain-of-thought, tree-of-thoughts and ReAct
  • Move from prompting to context engineering with projects, retrieval over your own documents and memory
  • Build an AI operating layer: projects with their own knowledge base, Skills that run a workflow the same way every time, and connectors
  • Package your Skills into a plugin with the HR Plugin skeleton and a 90-day rollout workbook
  • Analyse data end to end: data quality audit, exploration, diagnosis of causes, an interpretable risk forecast and a board-ready presentation

Course content

14 sections • 37 lectures • 19h 5m total length
  • Start Here: Four-Week First Draft Workbook13:29

    The lecture starts with real work: you take the document you write most often and lay out four weeks, from naming it and timing yourself to handing the instruction to a colleague and fixing what breaks.

    1. This course is built from six disciplines: business analysis, process description, AI fundamentals, prompt engineering, AI operations and data analysis with AI.

    2. The map of the course

    3. A dictionary for reading lectures recorded on people and operations data as your own analysis work

    4. Three questions to ask after every lecture

    5. A short self-diagnostic that shows which sections to watch first

    6. Download the First Draft Plan and fill in one week at a time.

Requirements

  • Experience in business analysis, operations, HR or any role that writes documents and analyses data
  • Access to an AI assistant such as ChatGPT or Claude; a paid plan helps for the projects and Skills sections
  • Nothing to buy for the course itself: the presentations and 75 working files are attached to the lectures
  • English at intermediate level or above, since all lessons are in English

Description

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

Most analysts have tried AI, received something that read well and meant little, and quietly gone back to writing everything themselves. The output was weak because the input was a sentence. Here are 533 tools to give it structure: 381 ready-to-use AI prompts, templates, procedures, checklists and matrices, 57 models and methods, 20 services shown on screen and 75 working files.

Open a lecture, take the template, build one document you write every week.

Why the first attempt disappoints

You asked for a document and got a plausible one with invented specifics. You asked for analysis and got a summary of what you had already written. The model had no access to your policies, definitions or templates, so it answered from the general internet. And every time you wanted the same output again, you rebuilt the request from scratch, so nothing accumulated.

What changes after this course

Requirements start from a framed problem and stay traceable. Processes are described before they are automated. Your prompts have a structure, your context is loaded once and reused, and a Skill runs the same workflow every time. Data goes from a raw export to a defended presentation. And the whole set can be installed by your team as one package.

A note on the examples

The AI sections are taught on people and operations data: recruiting, onboarding, reviews and pay. The methods are domain-neutral: a Skill, a retrieval setup or an analysis cycle works on any dataset. The examples are kept as recorded, because a real dataset teaches more than an invented one.

What is inside: 533 tools, counted lecture by lecture

You do not have to take this number on trust. Open any lecture and read its description: every tool inside is listed there by name.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe. I am also a founder and lead the strategy of my own academy.

When I did HR analytics, there was no AI, and a lot was done by hand in Excel. Out of curiosity I later ran my old tasks through Claude, and work that used to take me a week took a couple of hours: a few prompts, a few comments, a few corrections. I also use Claude to write messages for our Telegram channel, and the key is saying exactly which format I need: when I ask for Telegram markup, I get a finished message ready to paste.

How to use the course

Start with the analyst's craft if requirements are your daily work, or with the AI sections if you already write them. Build one Skill for the document you write most often as you go. Section and lecture titles show how many tools are inside, and each lecture description lists them by name.
