Thank you, Bill! 💙💛

As PEAKS enters an exciting new chapter, we’re taking a moment to recognize Bill Furtwengler for the important role he played in helping lay the groundwork for PEAKS at UNG Blue Ridge.

Bill’s leadership, dedication, and belief in lifelong learning helped build the strong foundation we’re growing from today.

PEAKS is now expanding to Dahlonega, while our Blue Ridge community continues to flourish. As we move from our founding board structure to a new PEAKS Ambassador model, we are excited to welcome even more members across our community into the work of connecting, learning, and belonging.

Bill, thank you for helping us get here, and for being part of the PEAKS story from the beginning.

Here’s to the next chapter!

💡 EVERGREEN SKILL OF THE WEEK: AI Prompting

Getting better results from AI often starts with asking better questions.

Use this simple framework:

✅ ROLE – Who should AI act as?
�✅ TASK – What do you want it to accomplish?�
✅ CONTEXT – What information does it need?
�✅ OUTPUT – How should the answer be presented?

Instead of:
"Help me prepare for a meeting."

Try this:
"You are a business consultant. Help me prepare for a 30-minute meeting with a manufacturing company interested in employee training. Identify five questions I should ask and organize them in order of importance."

Same AI. Better Instructions. Better Results.

Evergreen currently offers Google's Discover the Art of Prompting, which teaches learners how to write clearer prompts, evaluate AI output, and apply AI tools to real workplace tasks. Developing effective AI skills is quickly becoming an essential part of professional development.
