Turn AI Experiments into Real Design Workflows

This customizable workshop helps product and UX design teams integrate AI tools into practical, shared workflows. Talk with our team to learn more and get a custom proposal.

Workshop Summary

6 - 12 hours
DELIVERY FORMAT
Flexible

AI tools are rapidly entering design workflows—but in most organizations, adoption is still uneven. Designers experiment individually, using different tools and approaches, without a shared understanding of where AI actually improves the work.

This hands-on training helps product and UX design teams move beyond scattered AI experiments and develop practical ways to integrate AI into real design workflows.Through guided exercises, real examples, and collaborative discussion, your team will explore how AI can support research, ideation, prototyping, and iteration—while maintaining strong design judgment and user-centered thinking.

The training typically runs 6–12 hours and can be delivered as a full-day workshop, a series of shorter sessions, or a multi-session program depending on your team’s schedule.

By the end of the workshop, your team will have a clearer framework for when and how to use AI, along with practical workflows they can immediately apply to their day-to-day work.

Build Practical AI Workflows Across Your Design Team

WHAT YOUR TEAM
WILL LEARN

1
Where AI actually improves design work: Understand where AI meaningfully accelerates research, exploration, and iteration—and where traditional design methods still work best.
2
Practical AI workflows for designers: Learn repeatable ways to incorporate AI tools into research, ideation, and prototyping workflows.
3
Using AI to accelerate design exploration: Explore how AI can help generate concepts, variations, and early prototypes more quickly.
4
Evaluating AI outputs and maintaining design judgement: Develop frameworks for assessing AI-generated outputs while maintaining strong product thinking and craft.
5
Establishing shared team practices around AI: Help your team develop a common understanding of how and when to use AI in the design process.

Customized for Your Design Team's Context

Every organization approaches AI differently. Some teams are actively experimenting with new tools, while others operate within stricter governance and approved technology stacks.

Because Designlab works with designers and design teams across a wide range of companies, we understand the realities of introducing AI into professional design environments—from evolving tool policies to varying levels of team familiarity.

Before the training, we collaborate with your team to understand your workflows, goals, and tool environment. This allows us to focus the workshop on practical applications that fit within the tools and constraints your organization already works with.

Our goal is not to introduce yet another set of disconnected experiments, but to help your team build practical AI workflows today while preparing for how these tools and practices will continue to evolve.

Learning Outside the (Virtual) Classroom

Deeply ingrained in our programs is the idea that learning happens best when facilitated by real human connection. That’s why we’ve focused on building opportunities for Designlab students to connect with peers, mentors, and others in our community.

Connect, Collaborate & Discuss

At the center of our community is the Designlab Discord server. Here students, alumni, and mentors alike help each other get unstuck on coursework, give career advice, and provide design feedback.

But it’s not all business on Discord. It’s also a place where people discuss wellness practices, share book recommendations, find online video game partners, and talk about their favorite stationary (all real examples).

Learning, Live

Our courses feature live sessions (Group Crits, Peer Sessions, and more) so students can  present work, discuss feedback, and practice integrating the value of active critique into their design work. While the precise format varies by course or program, they all provide the chance for students to interact with peers in a facilitated session.

Real-World Insights: Expert-Led Events & Workshops

Being part of the Designlab community has its benefits. Students, alumni, and mentors receive lifetime access to our full slate of exclusive events and workshops. These online events cover a wide range of topics from navigating the job market to storytelling, user research, the latest design tools, and more.
