Go from “I have a course idea” to “I have a live, AI-powered education agent.”
Why This Workshop Matters
Educational institutions, corporate training teams, and independent educators are competing for learner attention in a crowded market. The game has changed: static course materials no longer cut it. Learners expect personalized guidance, intelligent feedback, and 24/7 support—delivered by AI.
The SUSAN Platform transforms how you build and deploy education at scale. You can now create intelligent education agents—AI-powered bots that guide students, deliver personalized learning paths, and automate tedious administrative tasks. But many educators don’t know where to start: they understand their content, but the technology feels intimidating.
This 90-minute workshop closes that gap.
You’ll walk through the entire process of building a professional education agent on the SUSAN Platform—no coding required, just clear step-by-step guidance. By the end, you’ll have a live agent serving your learners.

FAQs
1. Do I need to write my own content before the workshop?
Answer:
No, but it helps. If you have existing course materials (lecture notes, outlines, textbooks, PDFs), bring them—we’ll use them in the workshop. If not, we can work with sample content, and you can update it afterward.
2. Is this a live, instructor-led workshop or a self-paced course?
Answer:
This is live and instructor-led. The trainer walks through each step on screen while you mirror the process on your own account. You can ask questions in real-time, and the trainer provides immediate support.
3. Will my education agent really be live at the end of 90 minutes?
Answer:
Yes. By the end of the workshop, your education agent will be deployed and accessible to learners. It will have a live URL, working sign-up flows, and at least one course ready to go.
4. What if I don’t have course content ready?
Answer:
We’ll use sample content during the workshop so you can learn the full process. After the workshop, you can upload your own content using the exact steps we walked through. The platform will process it the same way.
5. Can I edit my course or agent after launch?
Answer:
Absolutely. The workshop is just the beginning. You can update your course content, add new courses, adjust quizzes, rebrand your agent, and modify learner flows anytime. SUSAN is designed for ongoing management.
6. How much does the SUSAN Platform cost?
Answer:
Pricing varies based on your use case (individual educators, small institutions, enterprises). We’ll discuss pricing options during the workshop. There’s no lock-in—you own your agent and can export your data.
7. What if I want to customize my agent further?
Answer:
SUSAN supports advanced customization. After this 90-minute intro, you can explore custom API integrations, advanced personalization, and domain-specific configurations. Our documentation and support team guide you through each option.
8. Can I host the agent on my own domain?
Answer:
Yes. During the workshop, you’ll choose between hosting on a SUSAN subdomain (quick setup) or your own domain (full control). The setup process is the same; it’s just a deployment choice.
9. Is there a minimum number of learners I need to start?
Answer:
No. Start with one learner or one thousand—the platform scales. You only pay based on your usage tier, not your learner count.
10. What happens if I get stuck after the workshop?
Answer:
You’ll have access to:
- Step-by-step documentation (all steps from this workshop)
- Video walkthroughs of each phase
- Community Slack for peer support
- Email support from the SUSAN team
- Optional follow-up one-on-one sessions
