Practical AI training for teams and leaders
Workshops, capability programmes, and leadership sessions designed around your daily tasks, tools, and priorities.

What does AI training look like?
We work with teams and leaders across New Zealand and beyond. We offer training options ranging from one-hour lightning workshops to multi-month AI capability programmes.
Hands-on workshops
Practical sessions covering Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, or other generative AI tools. Always tailored to your industry and your team's daily tasks. Formats range from a one-hour lightning round on a focused topic through to a full-day session with deeper exploration and hands-on work.
The result
Your team comes away with practical knowledge of how to use AI tools effectively in their roles, which means faster, more consistent work across the business.

Multi-session capability programmes
Multi-session programmes where each workshop builds on the last, giving your team time to develop deeper AI skills. Programmes include hands-on tasks and follow-up support between sessions. Every session is designed around your team's priorities combined with the latest updates as tools and features evolve.
The result
Your team builds genuine capability session by session and continues applying what they have learned long after the programme ends.

Leadership and board sessions
Focused sessions designed to help boards and senior leaders understand what AI means for their business. Sessions explore opportunity, risk, what successful adoption looks like, and more. Real examples and demonstrations run throughout, with dedicated time for questions and group discussion.
The result
Your board members and leaders come away with the context to ask the right questions, shape AI strategy, and provide meaningful governance and oversight across the business.

Training aligned to your AI programme
If your business is already working on AI strategy, implementation, or governance, we design training that connects directly to that work. Whether that's how to best use your latest tools, or how to ensure responsible AI use, your AI training programme will progressively build the internal capability required for success.
The result
Strategy, training, and delivery feel like one cohesive programme, with your team consistently building capability from day one.

FAQ
Common questions about our AI workshops and capability programmes
What AI training sessions do you offer, and how long do they run?
We offer hands-on workshops, multi-session capability programmes, and leadership and board sessions. Workshops range from a one-hour lightning round through to a full day. A capability programme typically involves multiple sessions of one to two hours, spaced a few weeks apart so learning can be applied between sessions. Leadership and board sessions typically run for around an hour, with dedicated time for questions at the close.
What is the difference between an AI workshop and an AI capability programme?
A workshop is a focused, standalone session. A capability programme is a series of sessions designed to build skills progressively, with learning that compounds from one session to the next. A programme is the better choice when you want lasting behaviour change and skills that deepen across your team over time.
Can AI training be tailored to our industry or tools?
Absolutely, every session is designed around your context. That includes the tools your team uses, the way they work, their daily tasks, and the kinds of problems they are trying to solve.
Which AI tools do you cover in your training?
We cover Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, and other generative AI platforms. If your team uses industry-specific software, we can work with that too. Every session is built around what your team is already using or planning to roll out.
Do we need a technical background to attend your AI training?
Not at all, we always start from where your team is at. Before most workshops, we send a short survey to understand your team's experience level and what they want to get from the session. That information helps us shape the content and ensure the session hits the mark for everyone.
Do you run AI training sessions for boards and senior leaders?
Yes, we offer focused sessions for boards and senior leaders that cover topics such as what AI means for the organisation, what successful adoption looks like, and how to approach oversight and responsible use. Get in touch and we can talk through what would suit your board.
Can you deliver AI training at our location or virtually?
Absolutely. We run sessions on-site, at a venue of your choice, or virtually for remote teams.
How do we get started with AI training?
Get in touch via our contact form and we'll set up a discovery call. We'll talk through where your team is at, what you are trying to achieve, and what format would work best. From there, we will put together a proposal with a recommended approach and pricing.
