Frequently asked questions

Is this training technical? +

No. The briefing is designed for decision-makers. No technical jargon, only demos and practical use cases.

Can my entire leadership team attend? +

Yes, the format accommodates up to ten people. It's designed for the C-suite, department directors, and transformation managers.

Do we leave with an action plan? +

Yes, you leave with a prioritised AI roadmap: 3 priority use cases, impact/effort matrix, and practical next steps.

Which AI topics should an executive committee address? +

Four topics belong to leadership: the uses that create value in each function, the risks relating to security, confidentiality and vendor dependency, regulatory obligations, and the order in which to invest. Since 2 February 2025, Article 4 of the AI Act has addressed AI literacy; as amended in July 2026, it requires providers and deployers to take measures to develop it among the people concerned. The briefing covers all four topics and ends with a roadmap agreed by the committee.

Can the briefing be part of a leadership off-site? +

Yes. At half a day, it fits into a leadership off-site, at your premises or at the venue you have chosen, or it can run remotely. Demonstrations and use cases are prepared from your industry and functions.

Training an executive committee in generative AI: which providers in France? +

Colombani.ai, a Qualiopi-certified training provider, offers this half-day briefing to executive committees, in-house, anywhere in France or remotely. It is led by Ulysse Trin, who holds the Claude Certified Architect Professional certification issued by Anthropic and nine practitioner certifications issued by OpenAI, and relies on demonstrations of real tools rather than slides.

Which AI training should executives choose? +

AI training for executives should support decisions, not teach a tool: understanding what AI really does, identifying high-impact uses by function, weighing the risks and setting an order of investment. Colombani.ai's briefing covers these four needs in half a day; team training follows, on their own tasks.
