Dan Wheeler

Founder & AI Solutions Architect

I'd been looking forward to this session all week and it still beat expectations. Four hours of actually building instead of note-taking. I came in with a half-formed idea for my consulting offer and left with the offer written, my buyer nailed down, hooks, a full email sequence and a launch date on a calendar. The prompt library alone is worth the time, properly detailed prompts covering every stage of a launch. You paste in your own material and get real output you can actually use. Been in IT 10+ years and the PACSS guardrails stuff was the bit that surprised me, marketing courses never usually care about that side and this one built guardrails into every single prompt.

Thank you, Noelle, for today. The workshop was truly amazing. I arrived with a raw idea, and the session helped me refine it, narrow it down and turn it into something much clearer and more practical. It definitely took a different direction from my original plan, but that was exactly what it needed. I now have a clear offer and actionable steps to bring the service to market. My head is still spinning (entirely in a good way) I loved the session and found it genuinely valuable. I would absolutely recommend Noelle’s sessions to a friend, especially someone who has a strong idea but needs expert guidance to clarify it and turn it into a realistic plan.

I learn so much from each session with Noelle and I love how she constantly provides real world examples. Noelle is extremely knowledgeable, highly passionate about being a responsible AI leader, and she delivers her teaching materials in a friendly, caring, down to earth, and genuine way. She is an expert not just in AI but also in business, marketing, and many other things I am learning on my AI journey with her. When you have a session with Noelle, you not only get the education you signed up for, but you will walk away with a wealth of other information that will enrich your AI journey. I would highly recommend Noelle's AI Leadership Institute!

Today's session was about becoming an AI Agentic Practitioner. I really enjoyed it and learned a lot about the process behind building AI agents. This year's class was a bit different from last year's—more technically focused—but it provided a solid foundation in the tools, design patterns, and deployment approaches used to build agentic systems. Thank you, Noelle Russell, for another insightful session!

Taking Ai Challenge first day was great. Looking forward to rest of the week.

Associate Dean, Assessment

Before joining this community, I was looking for practical, hands-on use cases I could apply right away. I wanted real examples, concrete ideas, and a space to learn how others were actually using these approaches in practice. I am finding the tips and specific examples very helpful!

Adriana Mendivil

Designer

As a newcomer to the community, what stands out most is the depth and quality of the content. Noelle is exceptionally generous with her knowledge, consistently going above and beyond in every session. That level of care is reflected throughout the community, where members are equally open, supportive, and willing to share their insights with genuine kindness. Grateful to be part of it.

Amy Simpson

Creative Strategist

I first crossed paths with Noelle at the Mindvalley AI Mastery Program in late 2025. It was early in my journey, and unaware of the later impact she would have on me. When my mastery program ended I joined Noelle's Skool Community - I Love AI. I signed up for her 5-Day VIP Challenge for Business Owners. Noelle poured into us that week, some days spending 4 hours on calls with us until every question was answered. In 5 days I walked away with 6 AI agents, loads of resources, and a deep respect for Noelle and her approach to building responsible AI. If you're interested in growing in the AI space I highly recommend investing in Noelle and her programs. You won't regret the decision. Thank you Noelle, for unlocking a new potential in me. I will forever be grateful for the time you took to build my confidence in AI, and looking forward to crossing paths again soon.

Anthony Russell

Up until I met Noelle and joined her community I had a very basic understanding of AI. In fact, most of my experience with it was primarily based on trial an error leading to countless nights of googling and scouring github for a way to use AI the way I imagined it could be. I have only been apart of the community for a few days but after just viewing the sheer magnitude of information shared in her community my eyes are glued open. As a current student in college and a full time father having the information I seek in one place by someone so passionate gives me a renewed sense of purpose when tackling problems during my studies. I'm almost ashamed I hadn't discovered this trove of information sooner.

Krishna Ivaturi

Manager, Automation

Learning from Noelle is genuinely fun. I love her contagious cheer regardless of the time/day/week or how many hours she has been already talking that day. Her sessions are crafted well with rich content but delivered in a casual conversation style, which is great for novices (like me) in feeling welcome and not overwhelmed. Her approach to every student is strikingly the same regardless of their domain expertise or professional qualifications, which makes everyone ready to contribute to the session. How she ensures it all consistently, while running multiple businesses is an inspiration. I hope to learn well and emulate her qualities right away.

The experience that I've had with Noelle has been mind blowing and life transformative. I'm taking multiple classes from her and her community. It feels like a hug every time. Lots of wisdom, encouragement, community. I just completed the AWS practitioner class. Now, yeah, that may not even sound so exciting, but it's the love of learning in a community mixed with curiosity and knowing that the guidance we get, we're getting is tried and true guidance. We are there together as a team, learning, growing, encouraging and supporting one another as we all embrace this AI journey. Learning with this community is like being on a journey with others who are also curious. Here you find your home, your tribe, your truth, your North Star and the experimentation factor. Just having the confidence boost of experimenting with a multitude of AI tools and the encouragement factor to play, experiment and to continually learn and grow sets this community far apart from other any many other communities that I've been a part of. This truly has been a five star experience. Simply stellar and life transformative. I have loved every minute of being in a community, being in the presence of and being just surrounded by a group of peers where we're all growing together to develop our skills, our mindsets, our approaches as it relates to helping the world at large embrace this new reality of AI. I have learned so much in the very short time I've been with the community for maybe a little over six months, but the learning and growth that I've experienced feels like three to five years of growth only because it's done in such a curated fashion and a fashion of excellence, excitement, encouragement and nourishing. I can't wait to see where this journey leads me and the peer group that I am in. I'm grateful and thankful. Thank you.

The AWS AI Practioner prep workshop was so thoughtfully designed and expertly delivered by Noelle. The content and more importantly the testing practice helped me feel supremely ready to take the exam with confidence. The repetition of key concepts with examples helped with my knowledge retention and the Q&A sessions help solidy my understanding. I highly recommend this workshop for anyone looking to build a strong foundation & credibility in AI. The learning experience was fun and engaging. I learnt so much in a few days. Cant wait to ace the exam and show off my credentials all thanks to Noelle and AILI team

I help companies launch and grow products with insightful focus on customers and their needs

I'm starting 2026 right as I've completed Noelle R.'s Responsible AI Leader Certification! As a product marketer, I'm not just messaging AI features, I'm shaping how customers understand, trust, and adopt AI-powered solutions. To do this effectively, I learned new AI governance frameworks, ethical considerations, and responsible practices that underpin successful AI implementation. I explored how to support organizational AI adoption while driving measurable business impact. One of the most valuable components was completing a course project where I developed an AI implementation strategy for a simulated company and analyzed the marketing implications. This exercise gave me a comprehensive view of AI, from governance and strategy to implementation, and from customer adoption and support.

Discovering the AI Leadership Institute has been a delightful and adventurous journey. The quality of the information and the people, as well as the practical training from Noelle Russell is fantastic. I learn something new every day from the community and the high-quality courses. I recommend the AI Leadership Institute community to all people who are in the AI space and want to expand their knowledge and skills, as well as give back to the AI community.

As a higher education leader, my schedule is demanding and my time for outside learning is scarce. That makes me very selective about where I choose to invest it. I turn to Noelle Russell because her I❤️AI sessions are short, clear, and practical—exactly the format that makes it possible for me to engage deeply, even during the late hours of the night when I can finally carve out time for myself. What sets Noelle apart is not just the clarity of her teaching but the way she designs every session with an incentive to act and a structure that makes participation feel doable. I jump in and try as much as I can, whether it’s live or recorded, because I know each interaction will be purposeful and worth the effort. The fact that she continues to hold live sessions, despite having nearly 50K followers, demonstrates an exceptional level of personalization and commitment to her community. For professionals who are balancing heavy responsibilities but still want to advance their AI journey, this community offers both access and impact. Noelle’s approach respects our time, fuels our curiosity, and gives us concrete ways to grow. It has truly been a transformative learning experience. — Ruth C.

Hi Noelle - thanks for connecting and such an inspirational session at mindvalley yesterday. Love your energy and so much fun hearing your amazing story.

After being through that myself and trying to navigate an ocean of too much information at the same time as you are in chock and not thinking straight� been working on a way to use AI to navigate, so far only used a combination of chatgpt, claude, grok and had just started looking into building a chatbot. The timing of the mindvalley AI summit could not have been better. More AI magic to the people. ? Would love it if you would like to share some thoughts on great steps for such a product development. Thanks for sharing the demo - will listen again ?

Hi Noelle! I am so grateful for our connection and being part of this exciting journey that you are leading! I was at the Mindvalley AI summit in the last days and I was truly inspired by your talk - your stories, energy, and insights. Thanks for sharing your Ted talk - Your message at the end of the talk brought me almost to tears. I also truly believe that AI can help us all to bring out our own unique greatnesses. Thanks for your inspiring leadership in AI, our world needs it, not through fighting, but by grounding to truth, giving hope to people and building together. You mentioned about the No. 1 skill in leading machines being Clarity of thought, it really hit me home - I have always felt that evolution of technology, including AI is a way of revealing to us, like a mirror, how our own human system work, it means AI shows us now about importance of clarity of thought when working with our own brain also - Mindfulness. It also remind us that it is time to tapping into creativity, intuition, wisdom we all have that are uniquely within us. I would love to share with you a little ebook that I wrote recently, called Wisdom, Consciousness & AI, if you have time to check it out and let me know what you think, it would be greatly appreciated. ?? Warm greetings from Milan, Xian

What I like about the community is the involvement and positivity everyone has for each other. There is a great sharing mentality and the exposure to ideas and guidance from Noelle and the team makes it easy to "take the first step" and learn to become AI Forward. I've participated in some of the programs and like how its structured and the access to information. Most importantly everyone seems very open to networks and collaboration....which is key when AI is such a fast moving space.

Diana C. Torres

Chief Executive Officer

At the AI Leadership Institute, I discovered an inspiring community—a collective of talented individuals, ambitious goal-setters, and, most importantly, true DOERS, ACHIEVERS, and CHANGEMAKERS. Noelle is an exceptional professional with a remarkable ability to connect. She listens intently, engages wholeheartedly, and becomes an integral part of your journey. Her openness and willingness to answer questions, offer insightful advice, and provide meaningful guidance make every session invaluable. There isn’t a single session where you don’t walk away having learned something new.

Marjorie L.

I’m excited about diving into this AI leadership course. This isn’t just another AI program. This program is pushing, challenging me to increase my confidence and skills in building AI that's responsible and inclusive as a practitioner and leader. Noelle is the real deal. Noelle's passion is contagious, and her authenticity shines through in every class and webinar. She constantly reminds me that AI and tech are for everyone, and that message resonates with me. The course itself is organized and is well-paced. The sessions are also engaging. I look forward to the hands-on training to build real projects that reflect the values of ethical and inclusive AI. I can’t wait to keep learning, growing, and collaborating with Noelle and my fellow colleagues.

Justine Clarke | Cofounder, WeCreate Enterprises

This was fabulous! The ability to take a rather "scary" topic which is AI and the latest in the space and make it engaging, interactive, and no pun intended "human". Noelle is a fantastic technical expert while balancing encouragement for the group to experiment and progress over time! As an Automation & AI consultant for SMBS, this is fantastic value all around.

Evan Benjamin

Senior Solution Consultant

I follow Noelle on LinkedIn but seeing her teach a live course is next level. Noelle doesn't hold back; it's non-stop enthusiasm and excitement that mere mortals just can't comprehend. She makes AI exciting; she makes agents exciting. After one live session with Noelle, you're building agents and AI solutions no matter what else is going on in your world. I will not be able to sleep because I have too much energy flowing through me now. (-:}

Julia Suzuki

Founder

My First Encounter with Noelle >> On September 27, 2023, I attended the Accenture webinar, "Change the Way You Work with Generative AI." During her presentation, I was struck by her positive energy and radiant smile. This first encounter led me to connect with her on LinkedIn, where I discovered through her posts that she was hosting a 5-day 'I Love AI' challenge in February 2024. I knew I had to be part of it. During the challenge, I learned about her communities and joined the 'I Love AI' and 'AI Leadership Institute' communities shortly after. A New Kind of Leader in the AI Era >> The world of AI needs more leaders like Noelle! Her 7 Virtues of Mindful Leaders deeply resonated with me, and I instantly knew I had to follow her. She embodies the kind of leadership that fosters enthusiasm, inclusion, and continuous learning. The Joy of Continuous Learning >> Noelle makes learning fun. The 5-day "I Love AI" challenge was a joy. Her passion and enthusiasm are contagious, inspiring me to dive into hands-on projects—even when I start with little knowledge of the concept or technology. She ensures that everyone who completes her workshops gains not only skills but also confidence. While online courses can provide information, having a mentor like Noelle to guide you, highlight key topics, and help you get unstuck accelerates learning in a way self-study cannot. Learning Smart, Not Harder >> Noelle teaches us to think differently and reminds us of key principles that we often forget to apply. Phrases like “Known beats best” and “Be doers, not just talkers” serve as powerful mantras that shift our mindset and approach to learning. “Community Is the Best Way to Stay Up to Date” >> During a recent weekly Q&A, Noelle shared this advice: “Community is the best way to stay up to date.” She is incredibly attentive, making everyone feel seen, welcomed, and supported. Whether through her hands-on labs, weekly Q&A calls, or events like the "I Love AI" challenge, I learn something new from her every day. The Value of Community >> Initially, I wasn’t sure how much time and effort I wanted to invest in her community or hands-on labs. As someone who has already dedicated significant time to Google’s AI products, exploring other platforms like Microsoft and AWS seemed like a diversion. However, after completing a few of her labs, I changed my mind. I realized that doing hands-on projects by applying what I just learned was just as important as mastering a single AI platform. Being part of a community where others actively complete projects is incredibly motivating—it pushes you to take action and grow alongside like-minded individuals. Final Thoughts >> Noelle is more than just an AI expert—she is a community leader, an inspiration, and a catalyst for learning and transformation. I am grateful to have found her and look forward to continuing my AI journey under her guidance.

William Coombes

Senior Change Manager

The information is presented in a way that is understandable for anyone willing to learn. I do not have a background in technology, so I especially appreciate how the information is shared in a user-friendly manner.

Roya Pashmineh

I love the positive energy and great information. Even though my daily projects take up most of my day, I still enjoy checking new posts and seeing AI from different perspectives. Thank you!

Javier Cortavitarte

Technology Consultant

I learned of Noelle from a couple of AI communities in Miami for topics of Responsible AI... Sadly, I missed it, but I joined this community. Then, I learned of this AI Challenge, and so far, some resources and strategies shared are aligned with my goal to learn GenAI to help serve others. But most importantly, she enjoyed sharing her business growth & strategy, and some mistakes, along with actionable daily tasks! Thank you so much for your effort to make more AI leaders!

Noelle is a wonderful soul. An answered prayer. She helps bring the best out of me. I wanted to set up my AI business but didn’t know where to start.

Thank you Noelle, Eric Soriano

Kimberly London Plant

Corporate Strategy Consultant

An energetic and thought provoking keynote speaker, Noelle has certainly ignited something within me to make me FINALLY dust off my LLC and use it to impact the world by solving problems and employing others. Her plain language guidance to building a consultancy is actionable after just one free session. But I won’t stop there - I’m sure the paid material will exceed all of my expectations.

Verol Thompson

"Noelle, I absolutely love the clarity and depth of our sessions! The information you shared with us for free is invaluable, considering that you may have learned many of them after the fact.

Without a doubt, I would recommend these sessions to anyone looking for expert guidance and practical solutions. It's been an invaluable experience, and I'm excited to continue learning!"

Adam Wilson

I recently attended the AI Bot Builder Bootcamp, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience that exceeded my expectations. The program was well-structured, informative, and engaging, providing hands-on training that empowered me to create sophisticated chatbots without needing coding skills. Noelle was knowledgeable and supportive, guiding us through each step of the process and ensuring that we felt confident in our abilities. The collaborative environment fostered a sense of community among participants, making it easy to share ideas and learn from one another. I highly recommend the AI Bot Builder Bootcamp to anyone interested in enhancing their skills in chatbot development. Whether you are a beginner or looking to refine your expertise, this bootcamp offers invaluable resources and insights that will undoubtedly benefit your professional and or academic journey.

This is a recommendation from my friend and teacher, Noel Russell. My name is Anton Alonzo Tibagana. I'm president and founder of Industry Assurance Consulting, which is a consulting firm that works with telecommunications companies, banks and financial services technology companies. And I'm also president and founder of ICRE Ventures, which focuses on ensuring that the telecom infrastructure and other technology infrastructure that we're going to use for AI and quantum technology and other technologies is green energy powered and inclusive. Over my decades I've worked with hundreds of companies. I started my career in Merrill lynch and I've seen a number of companies on the network and engineering side, virtual reality, augmented reality, satellite technologies and a variety of other areas. In that time period I met very few people with the skills and experience of Noelle Russell. Her skills are pretty extensive. Full stack programmer, network engineering. She's done a number of technical projects with Amazon, having helped develop their Amazon Alexa, as well as having worked at other Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft and other organizations. He also understands the business side and regulatory frameworks in the US and Europe. I met Noelle Russell this year at Startup World cup where she was on stage essentially providing advice to startups. Since that time I've taken a number of her courses, such as her AI botbuilder course as well as other training she provides at Responsible AI. Even though my background is finance, I do have a network engineering and programming background. I can tell you that she really does a good job of ensuring that AI is being developed in an inclusive as well as with safety frameworks in mind. Whether you are a CFO, CTO or other C level executive at a Fortune 500 company, or you're a VC or private equity executive trying to figure out whether you have the right AI strategy for your portfolio companies, or you're a government official such as the FCC or at the EU or a state or provincial level and you're trying to figure out what the AI regulatory framework should be, or you are at a university or nonprofit and you're responsible for helping develop young minds, she's the person you want. She has different training depending on what your organization's needs are and she's compassionate. She truly does care about this field as it's being developed. She's trying to ensure that it really is inclusive and that it is being done in a safe and responsible way. This is the reason why I work with Noelle Russell and why I recommend her to my clients and my partners, and why I'll continue to do so. Thank you so much.

I am excited about this opportunity and grateful for the resource. I just completed the onboarding process and look forward to the first training session.

If you can take the non-techie that I am and turn me into a certified bot-builder in one session--YOU ARE PHENOMENAL! Noelle has a talent in taking complex ideas and concepts and making them understandable in everyday language. Her passion and expertise were so palpable that it overrode my imposter syndrome that I began the bot builder class. I completed the class with a bot that served a small restaurant and the knowledge and confidence to build more. I've sat in other bot builder sessions and COULD NOT get it. Noelle and her skilled and compassionate team made THEE difference.

In my time, I have worked with hundreds of CEOs, CFOs, and CTOs/CIOs, from startups to large multinationals. It is my job to recognize talent and Noelle Russell is one of the best. First saw her speak at StartUp World Cup regionals in Miami. Then had a chance to hear her speak at GPTuesdays and to learn about her Responsible AI leadership initiative and her other projects. This lady is a legend for her role in the creation of Amazon Alexa, as well as projects at Microsoft and other places. She has network engineering and full stack programming skills, on top of proven business side skills. Few have taken a business unit from creation to over $100 million dollars in less than a year, as she has done. To be able to learn from such an individual is a rare chance, so I signed up as soon as possible. If you are a company, non-profit, school or government agency, she is a person you want to help you design your AI programs responsibly. Her slogan is from the board room to the white board to the keyboard and her track record shows that she very much delivers. Every chance I get, I recommend her. Consider yourself lucky if you can get her for your organization / project. Also, she is a great communicator and so efficient.

Hi there. I just wanted to leave a really positive review for this community. It's really been amazing. Before I found this community, I was kind of like picking pieces, bits and pieces here and there online, which was very overwhelming and very time consuming. And so I really enjoy the community. I enjoy having a place where I can set in my schedule, where I know I'm going to connect with like minded people, people that have a lot of energy, people that are very generous with their experience, and it's been really a great experience so far. Another thing that I'm learning more about, and I'm looking forward to learn more, is the idea of the responsible AI, which I just thought was kind of common sense. But I'm learning now through the community that there are specific areas to focus on when you are really interested in the responsible AI side. So, yeah, I just wanted to leave my quick review for anyone who's interested in connecting with very energetic people who are like minded and wanting to create a more inclusive experience for those in AI, definitely consider joining.

Keisha Armstrong

Brand & Operations Leader

What was your situation before joining our community? 🤔 Before joining I ❤️ AI was an avid follower and supporter of Noelle and then got an invite to hear her share about becoming a AI Solutionist Architect and she mentioned the group. I’ve been playing around with AI and trying to learn as much as I can but this is the first real group where I am intentionally learning and it’s very non pressure, super chill and fun vibes. Everyone is kind and open to sharing information. It just makes you want to keep going and going and going :) I look forward to digging in and learning more about different AI tools that are available to me and how I can use them to be effective in Business Operations and/or digital marketing tasks. I’m even willing to challenge myself to one day build my own AI bot that possibly others can use one day!

Barbara Pender

Senior Manager

This was great. Very motivating and energetic. I received some excellent nuggets from the acronym AMPLIFY and made new connects with my peers across the globe.

Rob Richardson

One of the most inspirational people I know, Noelle R., shared incredible insights on building with data and AI at MidwestCon this year. 🌟Ground AI implementations in your company’s data and values to avoid issues like fictional policies. 🌟Evaluate high-ROI AI projects with a clear rubric: align with core values, assess risk, and evaluate complexity. 🌟Retain experienced employees during automation—don’t rush to layoffs! you might have to hire twice as many people who don’t have institutional knowledge. AI is all about building, learning by doing, and staying grounded in values. Grateful to have her at MidwestCon 🙏🏾 Rachel Desrochers Catherine “Cat” Bushong Tracy Ruberg Helen Todd (Human) Audrey Chen Megan Hymore Katie Trauth Taylor, PhD Noelle R.

Her presentation was thought provoking and insightful. Truly helpful in fully understanding AI and all of its potential.

Spondon

Watching Noelle speak as a keynote speakers is incredibly and inspiring. Her ability to tie personal and emotional anecdotes makes you forget that you're there to learn from her notable accomplishments - of which there are many! The session on ethics and responsibility in AI has changed my thoughts on what to prioritize and when as an early stage founder. And all of it came from a little tiger. IYKYK.

Diana Bernal

It was an inspiring conference. She is an admirable woman.

Sarah Ware

I just heard Noelle at the ioi Summit in Chicago and her keynote on AI was very informative. I loved the way she broke down which can be a complex subject (AI) for the audience and made it simple to understand. She also sparked my interest to think about using AI in a responsible manner, figure out what I want to accomplish in the AI space for my business and educate myself constantly. Also remember that AI is a marathon not a sprint and ever changing so give yourself grace and patience on your journey.

Noelle Russell (Microsoft MVP, AI) is brilliant. She knows not only the technical details behind AI, but the how, why, and when to apply it. Love seeing her recognized!

Uvika Sharma

Noelle is a rockstar. Joining the AI Leadership Institute has been one of the best decisions I made this year. If you are wondering where to start with AI, this is a great place to come, learn and grow on your AI journey. Her live learning labs really push you to get your fingers on the keyboard to start building so you can be a doer and not a talker!

This is an appreciation post. ❤️ I want to express how grateful I am to have Noelle R. as a friend and mentor. I met Noelle 5 years ago at the VentureBeat conference in San Francisco. Of course, she was there lifting up other women in the AI space. We stayed connected and I quickly realized that this woman was brilliant. Technically savvy, spoke the executive language, and could talk about highly complex topics in a really approachable manner. She has shown up every year since then to the DataConnect Conference to speak (she is an insanely high-demand speaker). She rearranges her schedule to make sure she is there and jumps on stage with incredible knowledge to drop! BTW, she makes time for several initiatives she believes in. Anytime I need her, she is there. Startup advice, bouncing ideas off of her, supporting Women in Analytics (WIA). She is there. No questions asked. I deeply appreciate her and how she has supported me over the years, and I wanted to recognize her because all of this goes under the radar. These are actions that no one sees but mean everything. Thank you Noelle R. for being you. I know I am not the only one who has stories like this about you. You truly put incredible energy into the world. ✨ (I am realizing we have no pictures together on my phone... typical me - so I grabbed one from the 2021 conference!)

I like how Noelle’s sessions make me feel like I can do anything. I started with no coding or tech experience—this was my first time building anything like a chatbot! I could do it confidently because I understood what I was doing and the big WHY. I would 100% recommend this community to a friend! - Eva Aning

Marcus Knighton

I love live learning sessions!! If you like learning things real time or at least having someone go through whatever you are trying to learn step by step.....FROM THE TOP! This is the place for you! I have recommended all my friends join but its up to them to want to learn.

Mauricio Lopez

I loved the Live Learning Labs with Noelle Russell at the AI Leadership institute! The opportunity to interact and learn directly from a leading voice for AI in the US was invaluable. Noelle’s enthusiasm is unmatched as she drives all the participants from ‘AI Talkers’ to ‘AI Doers’! - Mauricio Lopez, Founder, LopezAI.

Padmini Soni

I am absolutely thrilled to have earned the AI Chatbot Certification! Thank you so much Noelle! This, by far, has been the best experience I have had while studying for a certification and mind you I have studied for a few :)) The sessions are engaging, fun, hands-on and Noelle makes it easy to understand no matter where you are in your AI journey. Each session brings with it a wealth of Noelle's lived experiences. Our chatbot sessions especially had multiple moments where we all had a collective gasp of awe when we saw the bot in action :)) My classmates in these sessions have been incredible as well. I have learned so much from them! Thank you Noelle! Thank you fellow chatbot builders! For anyone eager to exponentially expand their AI knowledge in a short period of time, look no further—this is the place to be!

AI Leadership Institute's Bot Builder Live Learning Lab was outstanding. Noelle's mantra to be a doer and learn by doing was put into action and I now have the Learn Bold AI Assistant on my company's website to greet and assist prospects and clients! So many great things to say about the AI Leadership Institute and Noelle, it's hard to list them all here. The highlights are releasing a live functioning product through the Learning Lab, receiving an AI Leadership Institute Bot Builder badge and certification, working on a project team with fellow AI builders, and getting inspired by Noelle's infectious positivity! Thank you, Noelle and AI Leadership Institute!
