Training

Also available in workflows

This specialist runs in chat and as a node you can add to a workflow for repeatable, scheduled runs. See the Agent Catalog for how the two relate.

Overview​

The Training specialist writes a complete training guide on a topic you choose, laid out as a slide-style presentation. It follows a clear teaching structure — title and agenda, an introduction, the key concepts, worked examples, common pitfalls, practical applications, a summary, and discussion prompts — so the material is ready to present or hand out.

It's built for learning and development (L&D) teams, trainers, and subject-matter experts who need well-structured material without building a deck slide by slide. The result reads like a professional session designed by an instructional designer, with navigation and a print-friendly layout.

Reach for it when you're preparing a workshop, onboarding content, or a short course and want a solid first draft you can refine.

What you'll need​

  • The topic or skill to teach, as specific as you can make it.
  • The audience — who it's for and their starting level (beginners, team leaders, analysts, and so on).
  • Scope (optional). The learning objectives, the key concepts to cover, and the examples or scenarios you want included.
  • Context (optional). Your industry, relevant standards, and any company-specific applications, so the material fits your setting.

How to ask​

A quick guide on a single topic:

Create a training guide for Excel pivot tables.

A fuller brief with audience and coverage:

Develop a training presentation on "Machine Learning Basics" for business
analysts with basic statistics. Cover supervised vs unsupervised learning,
real business cases, common pitfalls, and marketing applications.

A compliance-oriented safety session:

Generate a safety training guide on "Confined Space Entry" for the oil and
gas industry. Include permit requirements, atmospheric testing, emergency
procedures, and equipment usage.

What you get​

Ellie replies with a short summary of the guide — the topic, audience, and what the sections cover — followed by the full training guide as a formatted, navigable presentation you can page through, print, or export.

The guide follows a consistent structure: a title and agenda, an introduction that defines the topic and why it matters, several key-concept sections, examples or case studies, common mistakes, practical applications, a summary of the main takeaways, and discussion prompts. Preview it, save it to your workspace, or download it — see Read, export & sync results.

In a workflow

Added to a workflow, the Training node can also compile structured training reports from your program data — completion records, learning assessments, and participant feedback — rather than writing new material. Use it that way when you're tracking training activity across the organization.

Tips​

  • Name the audience and their level — the same topic is taught very differently for beginners and for experts.
  • List the concepts you want covered so the guide follows your outline instead of a generic one.
  • Give real examples or scenarios from your industry to make the material concrete.
  • Review the draft and refine in follow-up messages — ask to expand a section, add examples, or simplify the language.
  • Pair a guide with an Assessment to check what learners retained.
