  • {{field_or_industry}}: The specific field or industry the material covers (e.g., cybersecurity, biotechnology, customer service).
  • {{update_goals}}: What you hope to achieve with the update (e.g., incorporate new regulations, add recent case studies, modernize language).
  • {{target_audience}}: Who will use the training (e.g., new hires, experienced professionals, managers).

Instructions

  2. Research and summarize the most recent developments in the specified field that are relevant to the training material.
