EDUCATIONAL-TECHNOLOGY (edtech) start-up 10XME Academy has launched its 10X AI (artificial intelligence) training programs aimed to help entrepreneurs, corporate employees and students leverage on the best tools and hike their productivity 10-fold.
The launch comes amid increasing recognition of AI’s potential to enhance productivity. A recent study conducted by the United States’s National Bureau of Economic Research demonstrated a 14-percent boost in issues resolved per hour with the aid of an AI-based conversational assistant. The survey also suggested that AI assistance has been beneficial to novice and low-skilled workers, enabling them to glean potentially tacit knowledge from their more experienced peers, and move down the experience curve.
Industry leaders also predict a competitive edge for those who can effectively utilize advanced AI technologies, such as OpenAI’s GPT-4. The findings underline AI’s integral role in accelerating productivity and support 10XME Academy’s mission to empower professionals and businesses through AI.
“AI is disrupting many industries and forcing many professionals to either upskill or find other work,” said Bianca Azurin, founder of 10XME Academy. “Technology is the greatest equalizer, and AI tools will prove that fairly quickly.”
Azurin added that “with our courses, we want to challenge an organization’s perceived limitations, and allow them to take back their time. We want pros and entrepreneurs to be confident using these tools to further their careers or future-proof their income.”
Value-added
THE inaugural class entitled “How to Replace your Marketing Agency with AI” program went in-depth into ways local companies can leverage on AI tools to maximize every aspect of their marketing team’s output and performance. Students will learn methods to craft effective marketing strategies, create and distribute content at scale, plus integrate AI tools into their daily operations.
The program will be led by guest lecturers from the region’s most innovative tech start-ups. Students can expect to actively participate in practical exercises and undergo all the AI tools with the main lecturer. They will also be given up to 10 times the value of their program fees in the form of exclusive tools, perks, and subscriptions offered by future partners.
Classes will be held at partner venues in Bonifacio Global City, with plans to establish dedicated 10XME Academy classrooms in the future. The academy will also eventually offer immersive online classes where students get to join the live class from anywhere in the world.
Prior to the official rollout of the actual four-day comprehensive programs, 10XME Academy conducted two pilot classes to gather initial feedback on its courses. During its pioneering marketing class on July 1, more than 20 business leaders and marketers from prominent companies in the country were invited to participate. The course explored a diverse range of topics, including integrating AI into business operations, prompt engineering basics, and creating search engine optimization plans.
The first class’ attendees were Nix Nolledo of EDEN Holdings, Steve Sy of Great Deals E-commerce Corporation, Steve Benitez of Bo’s Coffee, Dean Bernales of Uniquecorn Strategies, Jen Bilango of Coins.ph, Ton Patron of DA5-Western Union and SurgePay, as well as other representatives from Ludy’s Peanut Butter, Infinix Mobile, PHINMA Properties, Pantheon Holdings, DragonPay, Accenture Innovation, AllCare.io, and BreederDAO.
