ERW CommandPMO builds programme delivery and certification training for organisations and individuals who need results that can be measured, not attendance that can be counted.
See the AI Leadership Programme → The AI-901 Bootcamp →Most training measures whether you turned up. We measure whether you can do the thing.
Every programme we run ends in assessed work, marked against a published rubric, returned as a written letter that names what was right and what was not. Where a programme leads to an external certification, we say plainly which credential is ours and which belongs to the awarding body — because the person receiving it will one day have to explain it to an employer.
Structured preparation for recognised industry certifications, built for people starting from nothing and delivered in sessions short enough to finish around a job.
Operational reporting and delivery discipline for organisations that need to know where a programme actually stands, not where the status deck says it stands.
Software we build and use ourselves before we put it in front of anyone else. CommandPro, predictive project management for the Nigerian oil and gas industry, is the first of these.
Software, and people.
A predictive project management tool for the Nigerian oil and gas industry. Built for the people who have to say what a project will cost and when it will land, in an environment where that answer is usually a status deck rather than a forecast.
Built and used in-house before it was offered to anyone else.
Twenty sessions for sitting executives, on the thing most organisations are getting wrong at the top: treating AI as an IT project when what has arrived is a change in how the company decides. Ends in a signed ninety-day charter for your own business.
Fifteen sessions for leaders in Nigeria’s petroleum industry on making the Petroleum Industry Act run inside the company: obligations connected to accountable owners, dependable data, controlled workflows and verifiable evidence, with AI used only where it improves the work. Ends in a signed ninety-day PIA game plan for your own company.
Twenty sessions for leaders of Nigeria’s modular and mega refineries on bringing AI into the decisions that earn the refinery’s result — crude, campaign, equipment, release and cash — with every session setting a modular case beside an integrated one. Ends in a signed ninety-day plan for your own facility.
Twenty sessions for leaders in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector on governing AI as a decision: separating what a system is claimed to do from what it is permitted to do, naming who owns it and who can stop it, and demanding evidence fitted to the consequence. Ends in a signed ninety-day governance plan for one real AI system in your company.
Thirty sessions for leaders in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector on turning AI into field performance, capital efficiency and operational trust: build the data foundation first, prove value in bounded pilots, keep human judgement where the stakes are high, and scale only what pays. Ends in a signed ninety-day game plan for your own company.
Ten sessions for leaders of Nigerian oilfield operators and service companies on making AI improve decisions across the operator–contractor relationship: a model must answer a defined question, beat a credible alternative and stay within its limits. Ends in a signed first-year AI operating programme for your own company.
Thirty sessions for the leaders of Nigerian oil and gas operating companies on carrying a decision through, from the reservoir to the bank account: evidence, an accountable owner, the authority and resources to act, and a checked result. Ends in a signed 90-Day Intelligent Operating Plan for your own company.
Fifteen sessions for the executives of Nigerian power and energy businesses — generation, transmission and system operation, distribution, electricity supply, mini-grids and project developers — on AI readiness: one bounded decision, a baseline, protected customers and assets, and a cost the company can control. Ends in a signed 90-Day AI Readiness Plan for your own company.
Twenty sessions for the leaders of Nigerian petrochemical, industrial-chemical and specialty-chemical businesses — producers, formulators and specialist suppliers — on connecting technical performance with commercial discipline: feedstock, production, quality, the customer application and cash. Ends in a signed 90-Day AI Leadership Plan for your own company.
Thirty sessions for the leaders of Nigerian oil and gas engineering, procurement and construction businesses on making AI part of one delivery model — from tender and design through supply, construction and commissioning to accepted systems and collected cash. Ends in a signed 90-Day Intelligent EPC Programme for your own company.
Ten sessions for the leaders of Nigerian petroleum storage, terminal, depot and distribution businesses on making AI improve inventory accuracy, custody, scheduling, dispatch and cash — with product, ownership and money reconciled. Ends in a signed Terminal Game Plan for your own company.
Fifteen sessions for the leaders of Nigerian crude, petroleum-products and gas trading businesses on leading the whole trade — commercial, physical, risk and cash — with AI that can be inspected and governed. Ends in a signed 90-Day AI Trading Plan for your own company.
Fifteen sessions for the leaders of Nigerian gas businesses — processing, pipelines, LNG, CNG, LPG and industrial supply — on using AI to keep the promise made at the delivery point. Ends in a signed 90-Day AI Leadership Plan for your own company.
Fifteen sessions for leaders in Nigerian petroleum regulatory institutions and the companies they regulate on making regulatory evidence reliable, putting judgement where it belongs and closing the loop after action. Ends in a signed 90-Day Regulatory AI Plan for your own organisation.
Twenty-five sessions preparing you for Microsoft Exam AI-901, Azure AI Fundamentals — from no coding experience at all. Every assignment is marked against a published rubric and returned as a written letter, and R. Wingo reviews any that falls below the mark to continue.
Twenty sessions preparing you for Microsoft Exam AZ-900, Azure Fundamentals — with your own Azure account or with no payment card at all. Every session prints the exact names the exam tests, and every assignment is marked on them.
Forty sessions preparing you for Microsoft Exam AI-103, Developing AI Apps and Agents on Azure. You build and run real Python in your own subscription, and every assignment is marked on the evidence that it ran.
AI is not another IT project. It is your operating model.
Twenty sessions of twenty-five minutes, across four weeks. This is not a course about how to write a prompt. It is about the thing almost every organisation is getting wrong at the top: treating AI as a project with a scope, a go-live and a handover, when what has actually arrived is a change in how the company decides.
Every assignment is about your own organisation. You classify where AI sits in your business today and prove it with evidence. You map one real decision loop end to end and cost the stage that breaks. You write the data contract, the autonomy ladder, the governance standard, the board scoreboard and the pilot charter — for your operation, not a case study.
Work comes back marked against a published rubric as a written letter that names what was right and where something is thin. Never a bare score. An AI assistant is on hand while you work and switches itself off while you sit a quiz or an exam.
By Session 20 you hold a signed 90-Day AI Operating Model Charter for your own business — a named first pilot, a baseline, an owner and a start date. The honest part is that most of that work is not the AI. It is naming owners, setting baselines, and saying out loud what your data is actually worth.
See the full syllabus →The Petroleum Industry Act belongs in the operating model.
Fifteen sessions of twenty-five minutes, across three weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent PIA. A company can hold a copy of the Act and still have no dependable way to execute the obligations that matter to its business. This programme is about closing that gap, and about where AI genuinely helps — across licensing, measurement, host communities, environmental and methane evidence, safety, supply, reporting and governance.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one obligation that matters and carry it through every session: the executable obligation record, the decision rights, the evidence index, the approval boundary for AI, and the board scorecard.
By Session 15 you hold a signed 90-Day PIA Game Plan — a named first pilot, a baseline, a sponsor and gates at days 30, 60 and 90. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →AI earns its place in a refinery one decision at a time.
Twenty sessions of twenty-five minutes, across four weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Refinery. A refinery earns its result through connected decisions: which crude to buy, how to run the campaign, when to intervene on equipment, how to release product and where to commit scarce cash. AI is useful only when it improves one of them and the improvement can be traced through the operating record.
Every assignment is about your own refinery. You bring one live problem from your operating review and carry it through every session, with a modular-refinery case beside an integrated (mega) refinery case each time: the decision record, the binding constraint, the campaign economics and cash, the protections AI must never touch, and the benefit finance can verify.
By Session 20 you hold a signed 90-Day Intelligent Refinery Plan — a first use case, a baseline, accountable owners and gates through day ninety. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Separate the claim from the permission.
Twenty sessions of twenty-five minutes, across four weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent AI Governance. An AI system can be accurate and still not be permitted to act. This programme is about the difference: who owns a system and who can stop it, what evidence its consequence demands, and how to report honestly to the board.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one real AI system or proposal in Session 1 and carry it through every session — the leadership doctrine and the law, technical evidence that survives challenge, generative systems, security and operations, and release decisions.
By Session 20 you hold a signed 90-Day AI Governance Plan for that system. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Connect the capability to the barrel.
Thirty sessions of twenty-five minutes, across six weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Barrel. Its argument in one sentence: artificial intelligence will not save Nigerian oil and gas; leadership using artificial intelligence will.
Every assignment is about your own company. You name the one loss that costs it most in Session 1 and carry it through every session — the data foundation and the engine, intelligence in the field, gas and the downstream, governance and controlled autonomy, capital and capability.
By Session 30 you hold a signed 90-Day AI Survival Game Plan for your company. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Leadership that closes the loop.
Ten sessions of twenty-five minutes, across two weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Oilfield and Oilfield Services. The operator and the service company each hold a different fragment of the same truth; AI becomes useful when leadership assigns responsibility for acting on the evidence.
Every assignment is about your own company. You map one real decision in Session 1 and carry it through the field data contract, model evaluation, field and service decisions, safety and regulatory boundaries, and the investment case.
By Session 10 you hold a signed First-Year AI Operating Programme for your company. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Carry the decision through.
Thirty sessions of twenty-five minutes, across six weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Operator. A model may improve the diagnosis or give an earlier warning; it cannot settle who may approve the purchase, make cash available or provide a safe work window. Those responsibilities sit with leadership.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one decision that costs your company time, money or operating opportunity in Session 1 and carry it through the mandate, the operating record, governance and people, wells, plant, delivery, safety, relationships, and the commercial and funding case.
By Session 30 you hold a signed 90-Day Intelligent Operating Plan for your company. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →From power-poor to decision-rich.
Fifteen sessions of twenty-five minutes, across three weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Power. Artificial intelligence enters the power business through decisions, and its value depends on what people can do with the output. Where a line needs reinforcement, a transformer needs replacement or a plant lacks fuel, a model cannot supply the missing asset or resource.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one unresolved decision in Session 1 and carry it through the constraint, data and organisational readiness, procurement, the first intervention, value measurement, governance and everyday execution.
By Session 15 you hold a signed 90-Day AI Readiness Plan for your company, with the board AI readiness scorecard scored on evidence. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →The decision behind the chemical.
Twenty sessions of twenty-five minutes, across four weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Petrochemical Company. A petrochemical company has to connect technical performance with commercial discipline. Artificial intelligence becomes useful when it supports a decision within that pattern, and the executive still needs to know which decision will change, who can authorise it and how its effect will be measured.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one recurring decision in Session 1 and carry it through the business model, feedstock, production, release, the customer application, reliability, working capital, data and authority.
By Session 20 you hold a signed 90-Day AI Leadership Plan for your company, with its pilot charter and five acceptance gates. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →The contractor that can explain its delivery.
Thirty sessions of twenty-five minutes, across six weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent EPC. An EPC company earns trust by turning commitments into technically sound work, accepted systems and collected cash. AI becomes part of that delivery discipline; it does not replace it.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one decision chain in Session 1 and carry it through tendering, contracts, engineering, procurement, fabrication, construction, commissioning, claims, validation and finance — including the author’s own practices for tender monitoring, project status reports and quote completeness.
By Session 30 you hold a signed 90-Day Intelligent EPC Programme for your company. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →From released product to collected value.
Ten sessions of twenty-five minutes, across two weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Terminal. A terminal creates value only when the physical, ownership, movement and financial records agree. AI can reveal where value is lost; leadership turns that insight into accurate inventory, safe movements and cash collected.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one unresolved decision in Session 1 and carry it through the tank farm, the four ledgers, custody transfer, losses, scheduling, berths, gantries, integrity, distribution, quality and safety, governance and working capital.
By Session 10 you hold a signed Terminal Game Plan for your company. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Lead the whole trade.
Fifteen sessions of twenty-five minutes, across three weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Trading. The commercial promise must survive physical execution and become collected value. AI earns its place by improving decisions across the four views of every trade.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one live decision in Session 1 and carry it through the trading record, forecasting, contracts, crude and product pricing, cargo quality, gas and LNG, freight and demurrage, custody, risk and hedging, liquidity, credit, sanctions and fraud, and model governance.
By Session 15 you hold a signed 90-Day AI Trading Plan for your company. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Carry the promise through.
Fifteen sessions of twenty-five minutes, across three weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Gas. A gas business connects physical supply to a customer promise: contracted volume, delivered volume and collected cash. AI helps when it improves the decisions that keep that promise.
Every assignment is about your own company. You choose one decision in Session 1 and carry it through processing, compression, nominations, balancing, LNG, industrial supply, CNG and LPG, measurement, integrity, safety, data and cybersecurity, and the investment case.
By Session 15 you hold a signed 90-Day AI Leadership Plan for your company. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Put judgement where it belongs.
Fifteen sessions of twenty-five minutes, across three weeks, built on Ritchie Wingo’s book The Intelligent Regulator. Written for both sides of the table: the regulator and the regulated company. Make the evidence reliable, put judgement where it belongs and close the loop after action.
Every assignment is about your own organisation. You choose one regulatory decision or evidence process in Session 1 and carry it through the PIA as an operating backbone, the evidence system, licensing, supervision, measurement, safety and environment, host communities, consumer protection, fairness, enforcement and controlled autonomy.
By Session 15 you hold a signed 90-Day Regulatory AI Plan for your organisation. Free, with a certificate of completion.
See the full syllabus →Twenty-five sessions of thirty minutes preparing you for Microsoft Exam AI-901, Azure AI Fundamentals — from no coding experience at all, if that is where you are.
Every assignment is marked against a published rubric and returned as a written letter, and anything that falls below the mark to continue, R. Wingo reviews himself. The final exam is sixty questions, and ten of them are built from your own mistakes during the course, so the only way through is to have genuinely absorbed the corrections.
Two tracks: bring your own Azure account, or take the no-card path. Same assignments, same certificate.
Plans, tracks and syllabus →Twenty sessions of thirty minutes preparing you for Microsoft Exam AZ-900, Azure Fundamentals: cloud concepts, Azure architecture and services, and management and governance, in Microsoft’s own weighting.
Most people who fail it knew the ideas and lost the marks on the names. So every session prints the exact names, a cheat sheet carries all of them, and every assignment is marked on whether you use them.
Two tracks: bring your own Azure account, or take the no-card path. The course ends in a marked Final, freshly drawn at every sitting and scored out of 1000.
Tracks, plan and syllabus →Forty sessions of forty-five minutes preparing you for Microsoft Exam AI-103, Developing AI Apps and Agents on Azure — the exam that replaces AI-102.
You build in Python on Microsoft Foundry in your own subscription: models, keyless connections, retrieval, agents with tools, tracing, safety and the extraction services. Every assignment is marked on the evidence that your code ran.
Every hands-on session ends by naming what to delete, so the course does not leave resources running on your bill.
Plan and syllabus →Every review here was written by someone who finished, and nothing is solicited, edited or written by us.
Each programme gates its own reviews differently, because the proof lives in a different place. On the certification bootcamps you have to have passed the real Microsoft exam, and we have to have recorded that pass, before the form will open. On the AI Leadership Programme the gate is the certificate itself — the capstone and the marked Final, both passed.
