Who this is for
This Certification Was Built for You If…
No matter which path brought you here — this program gives you the system, the skills, and the credential to lead AI confidently.
You lead a team
Your CEO is asking about AI strategy. Your team needs direction. You want to be the person with the plan, not the person still figuring it out.
You're a coach or consultant
Your clients are asking about AI. You see the opportunity. You need a proven system and materials you can teach with confidence.
You champion your department
You can see how AI could help your team, but your boss needs proof. You need a structured program with measurable results you can present.
You are curious about AI
You've built a career on being competent. AI feels like the ground shifting. You want a patient, practical approach from someone who meets you where you are.
The 5-Tool Toolkit
Learn how to use ChatGPT, Claude, Gamma, Microsoft Copilot, and Genspark.
Prompting guides, checklists, templates, tools, automations, and more.
The training gap
67% of professionals are now using AI tools. Only 37% have received any real training.
That gap is where the confusion lives. You've tried ChatGPT. Maybe you've even gotten a few good results. But there's a difference between dabbling with AI and actually having a system — something structured enough that you could sit down with your team tomorrow and teach it.
The opportunity
Every company needs someone who really gets AI. That person should be you.
This isn't random tips or theory. It's a practical system with live build time and done-for-you materials.
Someone with a real system. Someone who can sit down with any team and say: "Here's how we use this. Here's why it matters. Here's how to start — and here are the materials to get you going."
Google, IBM, Microsoft, and universities all teach people how to use AI. But nobody effectively teaches business professionals how to teach AI to others.
That's the gap this certification fills. You don't just learn AI. You leave with a proven system, done-for-you materials, and the confidence to lead AI adoption — whether that's for your own team, your clients, or your career.
The proprietary framework
The 7 Minute AI Method
A practical system you can learn in weeks — and teach for years. Each level builds on the last.
Level 01
Prompting
Learn to communicate with AI clearly and get useful results — not generic ones. Master five AI platforms, not just one.
Level 02
Skills
Build Claude Skills (AI 'recipes' you can save and reuse) for writing, analysis, research, and content creation that you can use every day and teach to anyone.
Level 03
Workflows
Chain your skills into repeatable automated systems. Turn a 3-hour process into a 20-minute workflow with measurable ROI.
Level 04
Agents
Learn how autonomous AI agents work, set them up for practical business use, and understand why this is where business is heading.
You don't need to master all four levels to get value. But you'll understand all four — and that puts you ahead of 95% of professionals.

Outcomes
What Happens When People Learn This System
Real results from our first cohorts — from people who started exactly where you are now.
Saved $12,000/year in his first month.
Adam discovered that a $17,000/year sales tool could be replaced with a $5,000 alternative — by using AI to evaluate and compare platforms systematically. He's now building proprietary tools instead of buying them.
A
Adam
Sales Director
Recovered 10 weeks of annual labor.
Jonathan's team was spending over 50% of their time on benefits reconciliation and enrollment guides. Using the workflow techniques from the training, he automated the process. Ten weeks of manual work — eliminated.
J

Benefits Director
Turned certification into a new career.
"I produced meaningful work during the training itself. It was not theoretical. I left with drafts, ideas, and frameworks I could use immediately." Nicki now offers AI training as a professional service.
N
Nicki
Retired Professor, Now AI Trainer
AI became her quiet but powerful partner.
"As the mayor of a small Arkansas town, I wear a dozen hats. AI has become my quiet but powerful partner." If a small-town mayor can do this, you can too.

From "I use AI sometimes" to "I teach AI."
Diana built automated compliance investigation workflows, started a collaborative book project, and now plans to offer AI training to her own clients. That's the transformation.

Your instructor
Meet Allyson Lewis
I've spent 30+ years in business — managing $150 million in assets at Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch, building a productivity methodology used by over 130,000 professionals, writing 5 bestselling books, and delivering more than 700 presentations to organizations like Walmart, Morgan Stanley, Northern Trust, and the FBI.
In 2024, Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders appointed me to the Arkansas AI Center of Excellence Task Force to help develop statewide AI strategy.
I've invested over 2,900 hours in AI research and development. I built this program differently than anyone else — because I don't just teach you AI. I teach you a system you can turn around and teach to others.
"The 7 Minute AI Method is not about learning a new tool. It's about giving you a simple, systematic workflow you can apply immediately and teach to anyone."

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the time commitment?
Plan on 2 hours every other Friday for live sessions, plus 2–3 hours of self-paced work in between. Over 14 weeks, that's a manageable, sustainable pace for a working professional.
What if I can't attend a live session?
Every session is recorded and uploaded within 48 hours. You'll have access to all recordings for a full year, so you can catch up or revisit any lesson on your own schedule.
Do I need previous AI experience?
No. We start with foundations and build up. If you've used ChatGPT once or twice, you're ready. If you haven't, you're still ready — we'll meet you where you are.
I'm not very technical. Will I be able to keep up?
Yes. The program is built for business professionals, not engineers. Everything is taught in plain language with hands-on practice and done-for-you materials.
What tools do I need?
A computer, reliable internet, and a willingness to practice. We provide access guidance for all five AI platforms used in the program.
What does the certification mean?
The 7 Minute Certified AI Foundations course is a rigorous, applied program in practical AI use and instruction.
Can I turn this into a business?
Some graduates have. You'll leave with done-for-you materials, a teaching framework, and a system you can offer to clients, your team, or your organization.
Is this just about ChatGPT?
No. You'll get hands-on training across ChatGPT, Claude, Gamma, Microsoft Copilot, and GenSpark — and the framework to choose the right tool for the job.
How is this different from other AI courses?
Other programs teach you to use AI. This program teaches you a system you can use and teach to others, with live instruction, peer cohort, and done-for-you assets.
Can I expense this through my company?
Yes. We'll provide an invoice, program description, and learning outcomes summary. Email support@7minute.ai and we'll send the documents you need.
What if I have more questions?
