Course Description
Generative AI: B.R.I.E.F. Prompting Framework is a beginner-level course designed to help you improve the quality of your AI outputs by improving the quality of your prompts. You’ll learn a simple and powerful method to consistently create stronger prompts that get better, faster results.
This course introduces the B.R.I.E.F. prompting framework—a repeatable formula to write clear and effective prompts. B.R.I.E.F. stands for Background, Request, Intent, End Result, and Focus. These five elements help you provide AI with the right details to generate better responses with less editing.
You’ll begin by learning what each part of B.R.I.E.F. means and why it matters. You’ll discover how weak prompts often miss one or more key elements, and how to strengthen them with the right level of clarity and detail.
Next, you’ll explore specifiers—the extra details that help customize your prompt results, such as tone, format, or word count. You’ll see how to combine specifiers with the B.R.I.E.F. structure for even better results.
Each lesson walks through the individual elements of the framework:
• Background: Learn how to include relevant context or background so the AI understands your situation.
• Request: Discover how to clearly define the task you want the AI to complete.
• Intent: Understand how to share the “why” behind the task so the AI aligns with your goals.
• End Result: Learn how to describe the output you want—including format, length, or style.
• Focus: See how to add constraints, tone, or other guidance to sharpen the output.
Throughout the course, you’ll review real examples and rewrite weak prompts into effective ones. You’ll also build your own prompts using our Prompt Planning THINK Template and B.R.I.E.F. Prompting Playbook.
At the end of this course, you’ll have a repeatable, flexible method for writing stronger prompts—so you can use AI more effectively across your business and marketing tasks.
This interactive course includes downloadable tools like the B.R.I.E.F. Prompting Playbook, the AI Prompting Checklist, and the Prompt Planning THINK Template to implement what you’ve learned. You’ll also get live demos, knowledge checks, and activities to apply the framework in real time.

This was the best training I’ve been to in a long time. The material was well presented and relevant. I look forward to putting the things I learned into practice!
Exceptional learning experiences. I have taken several Boot Camp Digital workshops, and the SEO Certification course. I have found all of them valuable to broaden my understanding of digital marketing and Artificial Intelligence (AI). In particular, I like that there are reference materials, as well as additional on-screen text highlights because they help reinforce what I saw and heard in the videos. As reinforcement, I have even created a folder of some of the quick reference materials for easy review on demand.
The plethora of information received from this course truly covered all aspects of social media. From the moment I started the course, I was able to start building out and implementing a plan for the company I work for immediately. I highly recommend this course to anyone that deals with social media. The content is comprehensive, well presented, and will guide you through making a solid strategy!

Just completed Boot Camp Digital’s online training, and I am stunned not only by the sheer amount of resources, but how much information they were able to squeeze in! Even though there was a lot to digest, the delivery made the content easy to absorb. The additional downloads alone are worth the price.

Boot Camp Digital is very professional and knowledgeable. I learned more in 90 mins than I have in months of doing research on my own. I will recommend Boot Camp Digital to anyone looking to learn about digital marketing for sure!
I took the social media marketing and digital marketing certifications. The courses were the best I’ve ever took. I have 38 certifications in all, but I loved these. Just the context and breadth alone is amazing. They put a lot of effort in to make these courses. I recommend taking them instead of going to college to learn from someone that has never done it.
