# mysummit.school

> mysummit.school is a research-based educational platform that teaches managers and team leaders how to use generative AI tools effectively in their daily work. The program is built on published research (MIT, Stanford, Microsoft), an independent benchmark of 54 LLMs across 8 management task categories, and practical experience applying AI at Microsoft. The course is designed for non-technical professionals — people managers, project managers, L&D specialists, and executives — who want practical AI skills, not theory. All content is in Russian. The blog publishes practical guides, tool reviews, and research analysis focused on AI adoption in management.

## About the Course

The course "GenAI for Managers" is a practical program built around real management scenarios. It follows a "foundation + specialization tracks" model: every student completes the foundation module (prompt engineering, critical thinking, ethics, AI workspace setup), then picks one or more role-based tracks.

- **Format**: Fully online, self-paced, text-based lessons with hands-on exercises, quizzes, prompt playground (run prompts on multiple AI models), and AI-evaluated assignments
- **Duration**: 8 weeks at 3–5 hours/week, lifetime access to all materials
- **Free module**: 9 lessons covering first prompts, common AI pitfalls, tool selection framework, and self-assessment
- **Certificate**: Digital certificate upon completion, suitable for LinkedIn — publicly verifiable at `/cert/{number}`
- **Guarantee**: 14-day money-back guarantee

All long-form content is published in **5 languages**. Russian is the primary language; the highest-value research articles, tool reviews, and AI adoption guides are translated into English, Spanish, French, and Estonian. Note the URL structure: Russian lives at the section root, while other languages use a language segment **inside** the section path (e.g. `/blog/en/`, not `/en/blog/`).
