A paid AI licence is included
For the duration of the course you get access to a shared paid licence for an AI tool. You do not have to buy anything to try what the free versions cannot do.

Why take the course with me
There is no shortage of AI courses. Here are six reasons people come to me — and why they recommend me to others.
I will help with the Labour Office application
The Labour Office system can be frustrating even for experienced users. I send you the exact paperwork, walk you through the application and help with technical problems when signing in.
Plain language, not jargon
I have been teaching for almost twenty years. I can explain complex principles so that they make sense even to someone who is convinced they are not a computer person.
You practise on your own work
This is not a lecture. Every block includes exercises on your own tasks, documents and emails. You leave with finished results, not with notes.
Every day ends with your questions
The last block of each day belongs to whatever you got stuck on. But you can ask at any point during the teaching — that is what I am there for.
You leave with something finished and a certificate
By the end you will have built something of your own that you genuinely use, and you receive a certificate of completion. You can put it on your CV and show it to your employer as evidence of AI literacy training.
The Labour Office pays most of the price
The course is part of the Jsem v kurzu programme. The subsidy covers 76.73 % of the price and you only pay the rest. It is not a loan and there is nothing to pay back.

You submit the application
The application is submitted online. If you get stuck anywhere, call me — technical sign-in problems are something I deal with all the time.
- 4
Once approved, we start
We settle your share and I send you everything you need for day one. Access to the paid AI tools is handed out at the course itself, so there is nothing to arrange in advance.
Who can apply for the subsidy
The programme is open to individuals who want to improve their digital and IT skills. In practice that is almost everyone:
- employees in any field
- self-employed people and business owners
- job seekers registered with the Labour Office
- parents on parental leave
- students
- economically inactive people
Programme conditions can change. The current wording is on the Czech Labour Office website — and if you are unsure, we can go through it together over the phone.
Do not fancy figuring this out alone?
Give me a call. We will go through whether you qualify and I will tell you straight whether the course makes sense for you.
Two courses, depending on where you are heading
Both run online and in person. The content is practical rather than theoretical — you practise on your own tasks.
Practical use of artificial intelligence
for employees and job seekers
The complete foundation that gets you genuinely using AI in your daily work. From your first prompt to your own agent.

Who will be teaching you
Jirka Folta
Tutor and guide to the world of AI
I have been teaching for almost twenty years and I studied computer science in Finland. I understand the technology and I also know how to teach — and that combination is rarer than it sounds. Most people can do one or the other.
More than three hundred people have been through my AI courses — from accountants and tradespeople to directors and people who were looking for work at the time. I have never met anyone who could not handle it. Only people nobody had explained it to properly.
I am not a lecturer standing at a whiteboard. I am there with you over the work you actually do — whether we are sitting in the same room or I am looking at your screen over Zoom. When something will not work, we sort it out together.

What participants say
Feedback from courses I have taught in Sezimovo Ústí, Tábor and the surrounding area.
„I used to be wary of AI — a bit afraid of it and unsure what it was even good for. On this course Jirka managed to explain the principle and the possibilities in a really pleasant and understandable way.“
„My experience with the course was very good. I warmly recommend it to everyone. Jirka is an excellent tutor, friendly and easy to be around. Thank you so much.“
„I have already used it at work to design a label for equipment in our repair shop. The atmosphere was pleasant and I came away with a solid idea of what AI can do. With this technology on the rise, I definitely recommend it.“
„Great tutor, interesting subject, friendly atmosphere. Jirka showed us how to use AI in everyday life. It gave me a real insight into what today's technology can do. Recommended.“

Frequently asked questions
Did not find your answer? Call or write and I will happily explain.
How much will I actually pay?
The core course costs CZK 20,990. Under the Jsem v kurzu programme the Labour Office covers 76.73 % of that, so you pay a 23.27 % share, i.e. CZK 4,884. There are no other fees — the shared AI licence and all materials are included.
Who can apply for the subsidy?
The programme is for individuals who want to improve their digital and IT skills: employees in any field, self-employed people and business owners, registered job seekers, parents on parental leave, students and economically inactive people. You do not have to be unemployed.
Can I manage it if I am not technical?
Yes. The course is built for complete beginners — on day one we start by having you speak instead of typing. You try everything straight away on your own tasks, nobody is rushing anywhere, and when you get stuck I am right there to help you personally. In twenty years of teaching I have not met anyone who could not do it.
What if the Labour Office rejects my application?
Then nothing is owed and you pay nothing. That is exactly why your share is only paid after approval. Before you apply we go through whether you meet the conditions, so you do not waste your time.
What equipment do I need?
A computer or laptop with a microphone and camera, and an ordinary internet connection. The online version runs on Zoom. You will also need a Google account — if you do not have one or are not sure, we will set it up together, it is nothing complicated. Most of the AI tools we use run in the browser; we install only a couple of applications and I will always help you with that.
Do I have to attend every day?
The Labour Office requires at least 80 % attendance, so for serious reasons you can miss at most two days out of ten. Attendance is recorded with exact times and online teaching is recorded, which is a Labour Office requirement.
Do I get proof that I completed the course?
Yes. At the end you take a short test (20 questions, pass mark 70 %) and show the others what you built during the course. It is not an exam in front of a panel — it is more of a show-and-tell of what helped you most. You then receive a certificate of completion, which you can put on your CV and show to your employer as evidence of AI literacy training.
Do I have to pay for expensive AI tools?
No. For the duration of the course you get access to a shared paid licence so you can try the features the free versions do not have. I will also show you how much can be done for free — including a model that runs on your own computer.
