Live Tutor-Led AI Training for the Workplace

Practical, hands-on AI training that helps employees use artificial intelligence safely, confidently and effectively in their everyday work

Develop AI Confidence Across Your Organisation

Artificial Intelligence is becoming an everyday workplace tool across private sector SMEs and public sector organisations. This live tutor-led course helps organisations equip their workforce with the knowledge and practical skills to use AI safely, responsibly and effectively. Learners build confidence through guided practice, gaining experience they can immediately apply within their own role.

Learning That Goes Beyond Demonstrations

Learners don’t simply watch AI demonstrations. Every session is delivered live by an experienced tutor who introduces each topic before learners complete practical activities on their own computer. Throughout the programme, learners ask questions, receive individual feedback and collaborate with others in an interactive online classroom, helping them develop confidence through practical application.

Why AI Skills Matter

AI can improve productivity, support research and streamline routine tasks, but it must be used responsibly. Learners explore how to work with AI while protecting sensitive information, applying UK GDPR principles, verifying AI-generated content and maintaining appropriate human oversight.

How Learners Are Supported

Every learner follows a structured adult learning journey. Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG) helps learners understand the course before it begins. A short initial assessment enables the tutor to understand each learner’s existing AI knowledge and confidence.

Learning is delivered using the Recognising and Recording Progress and Achievement (RARPA) approach for non-accredited adult learning. Throughout the course the tutor provides guidance, monitors progress and gives constructive feedback. Learners regularly reflect on their development before reviewing their achievement against the learning objectives. The tutor then signposts appropriate next steps for continued professional development, helping learners build confidence as AI technologies continue to evolve.
