Skip to content01 / EVENTS · FOR SOUTH AFRICA'S L&D COMMUNITY
A good question. A room to explore it.
We bring people who train, teach and develop others together when there is a useful question to explore. Meetups and café days are arranged as and when we decide, not on a fixed monthly schedule.
Come to one or both. The meetup opens a question. The café day gives you the time and the people to work out what it means for you and your team.
AN EVENING TO EXPLORE
The Fluence Meetup
A focused evening on one facet of AI and what it means for learning and development. A short talk or live demo, then open discussion. You leave with a clearer view and a few new people to call.
LENGTH
About 2 hours
WHERE
Johannesburg
COST
Free · limited seats
Good for: getting up to speed on a new tool, idea or risk, without a sales pitch.
A DAY TO WORK IT THROUGH
The Fluence Café Day
We take over a café and turn it into a coworking room for the day. Bring your laptop and your real work. Ask anything about your career, your team or your organisation, and how AI is changing each of them.
LENGTH
Announced per event
WHERE
A café we choose
COST
Free · limited seats
Good for: the questions you would not ask in a workshop, answered by people who do the same work.
The best questions get asked over coffee, not from the front of a room.04 / WHY WE HOST
What you tell us shapes what we build.
These rooms are where we hear what is really getting in the way: the friction no survey picks up. We are open about that, and about how we handle it.
We listen first
No product demos dressed up as talks. The agenda follows the questions people bring.
Patterns, not names
The conversation is about shared challenges. Please keep personal, customer and employee details out of group discussions.
It comes back to you
What we learn feeds the next session, our training and a short write-up we share with the community.
05 / WHO COMES
People who help other people learn
The community
L&D managers and heads of learning · facilitators and trainers · instructional designers · HR and talent teams · coaches and independent consultants. No AI experience needed.
Informal, useful, no pitch
Come as you are and ask the basic questions. For the café day, bring a laptop and something you are working on.
JOIN THE COMMUNITY
Save a seat at the table.
