In plain language Use AI with control for releases, incidents and maintenance work
Secure releases, diagnose incidents and preserve operational knowledge.
Start with the observed error or planned release: collect facts, separate hypotheses, constrain changes, run checks and document the outcome.

Current models, tools & applications
Content and learning objective+
Distinguish language models, AI services, copilots and specialised tools by task, data access and degree of integration. Criteria such as output quality, data protection, cost, currency and integration into existing workplaces make selection transparent.
Capabilities, limits & common failure modes
Content and learning objective+
Learn which tasks generative AI can support reliably and where probabilistic output, hallucinations, bias, context limits or outdated knowledge create risk. Common failure modes are recognised, assessed and connected to appropriate checks.
Systematic prompting
Content and learning objective+
Translate unclear work requests into structured prompts containing context, task, inputs, objective, quality criteria and output format. This makes requirements transparent, results easier to compare and follow-up questions more focused.
Improve & reuse prompts
Content and learning objective+
Improve prompts in controlled steps, compare variants and distinguish professional weaknesses from wording or context problems. Proven patterns are versioned, documented and made reusable for similar tasks.
Review & optimise results
Content and learning objective+
Review AI output for professional accuracy, completeness, contradictions, source grounding and fitness for purpose. Checklists, challenge questions and human approval points help correct weak results deliberately.
Text, documents, research & knowledge work
Content and learning objective+
Work on common tasks such as drafting, summarising, comparing, extracting, classifying and preliminary research. Clarify required inputs, result validation and where AI usefully supports the existing workflow.
Confidential information & organisational data
Content and learning objective+
Classify personal, confidential and business-critical information and decide what data an AI service may process. Anonymisation, permissions, provider settings, internal rules and safer alternatives are assessed through practical situations.
Course materials & job aids
Content and learning objective+
Receive and use checklists, structures, examples and concise references that remain useful after the seminar. Materials are not merely distributed; they are explained and related to common application situations.
Workflows & process chains
Content and learning objective+
Map a real workflow with triggers, inputs, roles, decisions, handovers and outputs. Assess where AI can help, which controls are required and how a reliable pilot fits into the process chain.
Use documents & knowledge systematically
Content and learning objective+
Discover existing text, documents and knowledge through source structure, metadata, terminology and suitable search or retrieval approaches. Quality, currency, permissions and the limits of a RAG or knowledge solution are made explicit.
Enterprise IT & project cases
Content and learning objective+
Work on realistic cases from requirements engineering, business analysis, project management, development, architecture, quality and testing. Roles, system dependencies, trade-offs and technical constraints are explicitly included.
Reusable prompt, analysis & workflow templates
Content and learning objective+
Develop prompt structures, analysis templates and workflow patterns that can be reused with clear inputs, checks and ownership. Versioning and adaptation prevent templates from becoming uncontrolled one-off solutions.
Adaptation to audience, knowledge & assignment
Content and learning objective+
Before an in-house session, audience, knowledge level, systems, assignment and desired outcomes are aligned. Examples, depth, exercises and transfer tasks are adapted to the actual organisational context.
Collaboration with sector experts
Content and learning objective+
For regulated, safety-critical or highly specialised content, the roles and responsibilities of a dual-instructor team are defined. CTPM covers AI, IT, data, architecture and methodology; the sector expert adds processes, terminology and binding requirements.
Requirements engineering & business analysis
Content and learning objective+
Structure stakeholders, objectives, system boundaries and requirements using suitable elicitation, modelling and documentation techniques. Quality criteria, acceptance conditions, reviews and traceability connect business and delivery.
Software architecture & modernisation
Content and learning objective+
Derive architecture goals from business and quality requirements and structure components, interfaces and responsibilities. Architecture decisions, risks, modernisation steps and transparent documentation are assessed together.
Data modelling, SQL & databases
Content and learning objective+
Transform business concepts and rules into conceptual, logical and relational data models. Keys, relationships, normalisation, integrity, SQL queries and performance are treated as connected design decisions.
ETL, interfaces & data integration
Content and learning objective+
Design the path from source to target systems with mappings, transformations, loading approaches and quality rules. Delta logic, error handling, restart, monitoring, metadata and lineage are considered from the start.
Legacy analysis & knowledge retention
Content and learning objective+
Capture functions, data, interfaces, dependencies, documentation and implicit knowledge in an established solution. Risks and unknown areas become visible so modernisation can proceed incrementally without uncontrolled changes to current behaviour.
Understand relational databases
Content and learning objective+
Practical module with explanation, exercise, reflection and a reusable transfer result.

End-to-end traceability from requirements to release
Content and learning objective+
Source, requirement, design, change, test, approval and release are linked so decisions and effects remain explainable.
AI-assisted implementation across technology stacks
Content and learning objective+
The method is practised with SQL, PL/SQL, MySQL/MariaDB, PHP, JSON, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL*Plus and Bash without turning the seminar into ten isolated language courses.
CTPM+: Academy case – from requirement to verified patch
Content and learning objective+
An anonymised case shows how requirements, database, PHP, web technology, testing, installation and documentation are iteratively supported by AI and professionally approved.
CTPM+: Oracle code, error analysis, reporting and documentation
Content and learning objective+
Oracle SQL and PL/SQL context, data models, transactions, packages, failure modes, test data, reporting and documentation are treated together rather than in isolation.
The complete professional standard
Fundamentals, current tools, prompting, exercises, output review, privacy, security and responsible use are taught clearly and practically.
More transfer through senior practice
CTPM+ connects learning to roles, documents, knowledge, processes, data, interfaces, architecture and a realistic next implementation step.
An academy that enables learning
We do not merely repeat terminology. We make it usable.
More than 25 years of adult education and thousands of participants in IT and Oracle topics shape our approach: explain clearly, practise together, review critically and transfer safely.
We connect new terminology immediately with plain language and a familiar problem.
You apply the method yourself using a clear example and can ask questions at any time.
We compare results, identify errors and develop understandable quality criteria.
You leave with a template, decision aid or a concrete next step for your work.

Practice evidence / case studyCTPM Academy: from requirement to verified patch
Anonymised extracts show Stefan Müller setting goals, system context, quality criteria and approval as the accountable professional. AI supports analysis, design, code, testing and documentation. A plausible solution becomes usable only after review of the existing system, side-effect analysis, testing and human approval. This case study is documented practice evidence, not a customer reference or an OpenAI endorsement.
