What will you learn in the Gemini course?

No separate prompts, but an integrated workflow in which Gemini works together with the tools you already use every day.

Google Gemini is not a standalone chatbot. It is the AI layer that Google has woven throughout Workspace. Gemini has direct access to your Gmail, Drive documents, calendar and meeting notes. That makes it fundamentally different from ChatGPT or Claude, where you have to enter context manually.

In this course, you will learn to deploy Gemini on an app-by-app basis. In Gmail, you summarise threads and compose replies. In Docs, you rewrite text and check documents for inconsistencies. In Sheets, you write formulas and analyse data. In Drive, you search all your files with a single query.

You will learn to work with Deep Research: Gemini's feature for automated source research. You will formulate a research question, fine-tune the research plan and review the report for source quality and completeness.

You build your own knowledge base in NotebookLM. You add sources, query them specifically and use the studio features to generate useful output based on your own material.

You create a Gem: a Gemini configuration with a fixed role, tone and instruction set that you reuse for recurring tasks. And in the final assignment, you combine everything into one personalised workflow that you can deploy the next working day.

You take this online Gemini course entirely remotely, at your own pace. LearnLLM also offers other AI courses to tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Grok.

Modules in the Gemini e-learning

3 Deep Research Formulate a research question, adjust the research plan and review the report for source quality, completeness and missing perspectives.
4 NotebookLM Build a personal knowledge base of your own documents, query them in a targeted way and generate useful output via the studio features.
5 Gems: Gemini in a permanent role Configure a Gem with a fixed role, tone and instruction set that you reuse for recurring tasks without re-instructing.

Why take a Gemini course?

Integration with Google Workspace makes Gemini approachable. But approachable is not the same as effective.

Most Workspace users see the Gemini side panel appear in Gmail or Docs and give it a try. A summary here, a draft email there. Sometimes the result is useful, sometimes not. Without structure, it remains occasional use.

Gemini can harness more than most professionals. Deep Research provides complete source reports that save you hours of manual searching. NotebookLM turns your own documents into a searchable knowledge base. Gems let Gemini work in a fixed role so you don't have to re-instruct at every session. Which model you choose makes a difference: read more about the capabilities of Gemini 2 Flash.

But like any AI model, Gemini generates output based on patterns, not facts. A summary may leave out points. An analysis may suggest connections that are not there. A formula in Sheets can work technically but be wrong in content.

Workspace integration makes it easier to use, but does not reduce the need to check output. Especially not for tasks that have your name under them.

This Gemini course for companies and individual professionals teaches you how to target each function and when to verify output.

Who developed this Gemini course?

This course was developed by Dennis van de Velde, SEO specialist and AI trainer. Dennis works daily with Gemini, ChatGPT and Claude in professional contexts and has experience at Rabobank, ABN Amro and Van Lanschot. Environments where accuracy and integrity are not recommendations but hard requirements. Where you check what you send, because the consequences of a mistake go beyond a bad impression.

That standard is in every module of this course. The Gemini e-learning went through more than 20 rounds of revision. Not because it had to, but because errors, ambiguities or better wording came out every time.

Gemini tailor-made course for companies

The standard course is immediately deployable for employees using Google Workspace. For organisations looking to roll out Gemini more broadly, LearnLLM tailors the course to your work processes and Workspace configuration.

Think of scenarios based on your own documents, department or sector. Or additional modules on AI policies, compliance and the privacy settings of your Workspace environment. See the full offer on the AI training for businesses.
