Kick off the 2025 AFPM Training Forum with fellow attendees, get the latest updates from the AFPM Immersive Learning Committee, and participate in a hands-on activity exploring how clear prompts can lead to better generative AI results. Just like clear communication and handovers in training and safety, the quality of your input determines the value of your output. Teams will connect and build on each other’s ideas, discuss results, and see how thoughtful communication leads to better outcomes. Whether you’re training people or training AI, there’s more to training then just telling! Network, build your skills, share insights, and see how the quality of your input shapes the output.

• Track: AI Track - Boosting Training Efficiency with AI: Simple Tools, Real Results
-- Brian Troquille, San Jacinto College - Central: Center for Petrochemical Energy & Technology
As the process industries evolve, so must our approach to workforce training. This session introduces AI as a practical tool—not a futuristic concept—for helping training professionals create content faster, simplify complex concepts, and build engaging materials like quizzes, job aids, and safety briefings. Attendees will see live AI prompt demos using tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot and leave with ready-to-use examples they can implement immediately—no tech background required.

• Track: Leaders/Leadership - Authentic Leadership: The Art of Building Unshakable Trust
-- Tommy Nipp, HASC
Everyone knows trust is important. However, many fail at building that trust. They may feel that it comes with the authority of the position. Some will even say they have trust, and yet struggle to speak or capture attention of all levels of their organization. True authentic trust is built brick by brick and when finished is an unshakable foundation. So it ties in with "Telling Ain't Trainin" as it's more than just words.
