Where time is quietly being lost

In many organisations, everyday work includes tasks like:

Individually, these tasks seem small.
But across a team, they take up a significant amount of time and limit capacity.

 

If you are not sure where to start, you can use our quick assessment tool to:

What if these processes didn’t rely on manual work?

With the right use of AI and automation, many of these processes can be:

  • Completed automatically in the background
  • Reduced from hours to minutes
  • Standardised and consistent across the team

 

This isn’t about replacing people.
It’s about improving how work flows across your organisation.

What is the AI & Automation Practitioner training?

This training is designed for employees who are already working in your business and want to apply AI and automation in a practical, responsible way.

 

Employees develop hands-on skills to identify automation opportunities, implement AI-driven solutions, and improve workflows using real business data, systems, and tools.

 

The programme runs alongside the employee’s day-to-day role, ensuring immediate impact on productivity, efficiency, and innovation within your organisation.

Who This Is For

This programme is ideal for employers who want to:

 

  • Upskill existing employees in AI and automation
  • Improve operational efficiency without hiring new specialists
  • Future-proof teams against rapid technological change
  • Embed AI safely and responsibly across departments
  • Levy and non-levy paying organisations
  • Operations, sales, admin, marketing, and technical teams
  • Businesses based in England

 

Typical learner roles include operations staff, analysts, project managers, digital teams, technical leads, and business support functions.

 

If you employ people and have real business processes, you are likely to be eligible.

How this works in practice

This is not a traditional course.

 

Your team doesn’t just learn about AI and automation.
They apply it directly to your business from the beginning.

 

Throughout the programme:

This means:

Over the course of a year, this becomes a continuous process of improving how work is done across your team.

 

In practice, it often feels less like training and more like having ongoing support to improve your internal processes.

Why this is becoming accessible now

The UK government is investing in helping businesses adopt AI and automation.

Not by outsourcing solutions, but by building capability within teams.

This allows organisations to:

For many businesses, this is 95–100% funded, depending on eligibility.

If a contribution is required, it is typically small and can be spread across the duration of the programme.

At the same time, businesses often reduce costs elsewhere by:

The programme runs over 12 months.

This is intentional.

It allows your team to:

  • Learn gradually
  • Apply what they learn in real situations
  • Build and improve automations over time

This is not a one-off course. It’s a structured way to create long-term improvements in how your business operates.

Most courses focus on knowledge.

This focuses on application.

Your team:

  • Works on real processes from your business
  • Builds automations during the programme, not after
  • Receives ongoing support from a mentor

The result is not just learning, but actual improvements in how work gets done.

The programme is designed to fit alongside day-to-day work.

Rather than adding extra workload, the focus is on improving how work is already being done.
Many businesses find that the time invested is offset by the time saved through automation.


 

Using AI tools individually is a good starting point.

This goes a step further by helping your team:

  • Connect tools into workflows
  • Automate processes across systems
  • Create consistent, repeatable ways of working

It’s about making AI useful across the business, not just in isolated tasks.
