Who should take AI Tool Mastery for Work Productivity?

AI Tool Mastery for Work Productivity is for business owners, managers and office teams in HR, finance, admin and operations. You need no technical background. The one-day class works on your own documents and tasks, with ChatGPT and Claude set up on your laptop and account.

You practise HR documents, recruitment, onboarding, internal communication, finance analysis, spreadsheets and reports. Admin work includes meeting notes, emails, documents and SOPs, or standard operating procedures. You also work on research, proposals and presentations.

You work with Projects and project files, Skills and MCP connectors for reusable workflows, and Cowork and scheduled tasks for multi-step work, in ChatGPT and Claude. Bring your laptop, charger and a few files your company allows you to use as copies.

What will you make in AI Video Marketing Mastery?

In AI Video Marketing Mastery, you create your own AI influencer, place it inside your shop and leave with a 30-day posting plan. Beginners who have never made a video and are not techy are welcome. Bring a laptop and photos of your shop or product.

You practise keeping one consistent face across videos, writing scripts, adding voices and editing finished short-form marketing videos. Karya Studio is Edison's AI creation platform, where credits generate images and video. The included credits let you keep generating videos after class.

Choose full Mandarin or English teaching, with free seat transfers between the two. Your class language does not decide your video language: you can make videos in Chinese, English or Malay. Disclose AI use in your videos.

What will you build in AI Tool Mastery for Sales and Marketing?

AI Tool Mastery for Sales and Marketing is a two-day, hands-on program to turn AI into a sales system. Choose this class if you want to work on competitor research, content, a landing page and ads for your own business.

You analyse competitor ads and content with AI, turn other people's videos into your own content, and make AI images and video for your marketing. You build your own landing page, set up an AI chatbot on your website, and run ads that Claude or ChatGPT, through MCP, help you analyse and optimise. The class ends with hands-on projects on your own business.

Can you join AI Full-Stack Building for Business without coding experience?

Yes, AI Full-Stack Building for Business needs no coding background; bring a business process you can explain in plain English. Also known as vibe coding, this class uses AI building tools, Claude Code and/or ChatGPT Codex, to turn business ideas and processes into working tools. You build a first working version of an internal tool for your own process.

The class covers websites, web apps, dashboards, internal systems, databases, APIs, deployment and workflow integration. Bring a laptop, charger and a process such as quotations, stock, leave or orders, with its spreadsheet or a screenshot of how it works today. Use sample or copied data; the project is a first working tool, not a full ERP or a replacement for accounting software.

Can your company claim HRDC for these classes?

All four classes are HRDC claimable under SBL-Khas, with claim assistance. Your company applies to HRD Corp at least 3 days before class; NextGen advises 10 or more days. The price is the same whether you pay yourself or claim through HRDC.

NextGen Training Academy is an HRD Corp registered training provider. If you want training for your whole team at your office, in-house training is available on request. Use the team training link below to request that option.

What happens if your plans change?

You can transfer your seat free any time, and a replacement participant is allowed. The refund options depend on how far ahead of class you change your plans.

• 14 or more days before class: full refund or free transfer.
• 7 to 13 days before class: 50% refund or free transfer.
• If NextGen cancels: free transfer or full refund.

Is there a free webinar before you book?

The free AI-Powered Social Media Growth Webinar ran live online on Google Meet on Thursday, 15 October 2026, and has ended. The next date is to be announced. Edison Chua, founder of NextGen Training Academy and an HRD Corp certified AI trainer, showed writing, posters, video editing and scheduled posting using one brand. Join the waitlist on the webinar page and registrants are told first when a new date is set.

The webinar is free and online on Google Meet, and a session takes 60 to 90 minutes. It is live only, with no promised recording or replay, and it ends with a short optional invitation to the two-day class. AI-Powered Social Media Growth, the two-day class behind it, is on hold with no date, so the waitlist is the way to be told first.

If you have a specific office task, video, posting workflow or internal tool to work on, book the paid class that matches it. If you post or approve content and want to see the workflow first, join the waitlist for the free AI-Powered Social Media Growth Webinar. Use the links below to choose your class or join the waitlist.
