datadice Academy

    AI training on your own systems

    The datadice Academy trains teams on their daily tasks and on the systems they work with. Users learn to work safely with AI, subject-matter owners learn to maintain rules and content, technical leads learn their tasks in operations.

    Since February 2025, Art. 4 of the AI Act requires companies to ensure sufficient AI literacy among their staff. Thomas Knorr also teaches in the IHK course “AI Innovation Manager” and in the certificate course “AI Solution Architect” at Coburg University of Applied Sciences.

    Typical starting point

    You are developing your system landscape further and opening up new possibilities for your company through data, automation and AI. This also changes tasks, requirements and decision paths. Your employees want to understand this development and make their own contribution.

    Our answer

    People make new technology useful

    The datadice Academy supports your digital transformation with practical training and further education. We connect an understanding of data and AI with your employees' tasks and the use of your systems. This way, your teams can use digital tools confidently, actively help shape change and continue to develop in a digital working world.

    What we stand for
    We are convinced: new technologies only deliver value through the people who work with them. Their experience, judgement and ability to learn drive the company's development. That is why technical change with us also strengthens employees' skills and career prospects.

    Mandatory since 2025

    What does the training obligation under Art. 4 AI Act require?

    Since 2 February 2025, Art. 4 of the AI Act obliges companies that use AI systems to take measures so that their staff have sufficient AI literacy. The datadice Academy offers training per role for this.

    How extensive the training must be depends on the use case. Someone drafting texts with an approved chat tool needs something different from a subject-matter owner who maintains the rules of an automated invoice check.

    The Academy therefore starts with the roles. Together with you, we define which content each role needs. Whether your specific use triggers further obligations is something you check with your data protection officer or legal counsel. The Academy defines the form of the certificate of participation per format.

    For your department

    How much extra work does AI create for our team?

    At first, work is added, above all for reviewing results, maintaining rules and learning new workflows. datadice makes this effort visible before the rollout and trains your team for exactly that.

    Relief and new review work often come at the same time. Anyone who adopts an AI answer must be able to assess it. Anyone who looks after an automation must know when it handles exceptions incorrectly.

    That is why your team practises on real cases from its own daily work, such as a customer enquiry about delivery times that is answered with a source and then reviewed. Your department sees in advance which role needs which training.

    Certificate courses

    Two certificate courses in Coburg

    Alongside training inside companies, datadice teaches in two certificate courses: at the IHK zu Coburg (Chamber of Commerce and Industry) and at Coburg University of Applied Sciences. The courses are independent, each with its own audience, structure and certificate.

    IHK zu Coburg

    AI Innovation Manager (IHK)

    • IHK certificate course
    • specialists and managers
    • online sessions, hands-on days on site

    The course is aimed at specialists and managers who introduce AI in their own company. Participants learn to lead AI: describe tasks, delegate them to agents and check the results. They finish with their own solution for a task from their working day.

    Our part: Thomas Knorr designs the course together with Prof. Dr. Thomas Wieland. He teaches the units on agents, context, interfaces and automation, plus a hands-on day where participants build their project with Claude Code or Codex.

    Coburg University of Applied Sciences

    AI Solution Architect

    • university certificate course
    • EQF/DQR level 7
    • first run winter semester 2026/27

    The course is aimed at experienced technical professionals who want to use AI professionally in their own field and need in-depth knowledge to do so. The focus is architecture: choosing and running models, opening up company data with permissions, measuring quality and connecting agents safely.

    Our part: Thomas Knorr teaches together with Prof. Dr. Thomas Wieland. He covers the units on local AI, enterprise data, evaluation and agents, plus a full-day workshop in which participants build their own small knowledge system.

    Application

    Every role learns what it needs for its responsibilities

    Users learn to work confidently with the solutions. Subject-matter owners learn to maintain rules and content. Technical leads learn the agreed tasks in operation. Experienced employees pass on their knowledge in a structured way.
