AI training that makes sense for people who find tech overwhelming.
Practical, plain-English AI training for SME business owners. No jargon, no assumptions about your tech background, no trying to turn you into a developer.
Who it's for.
You run a SME and you know AI is something you should probably be doing something about. You've tried a few things, maybe ChatGPT or Copilot, and it felt useful but patchy. Or you haven't started yet because you're not sure where to begin and you don't want to waste a day on something that doesn't fit the way you work. Either way, this training is built for you.
What we cover.
- The AI tools most useful for SME business owners right now, and which ones are worth your time
- How to use ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot in plain English, without needing a technical background
- Practical workflows: writing, admin, customer communication, research, and planning
- What AI can't do well yet, so you stop wasting time on the wrong things
- How to build AI into your day without it becoming another thing to manage
How we work.
- 1-to-1 sessions: a focused two-hour session built around your business and the tasks you actually do
- Small group workshops: up to six people, in-person in Inverness or online, working through the same practical material together
- Follow-up support: two weeks of email access after your session for questions as they come up in real use
Where we work.
Sessions run online across the UK. In-person workshops are available in Inverness and across the Highlands and Islands. If you're based elsewhere in Scotland or the UK and want an in-person session, get in touch and we'll work something out.
Who leads the training.
Led by Jill McAlpine. Jill has spent more than twenty years working in and around organisations that were trying to change how they work. She came to AI the same way most business owners do, by figuring it out without a technical background, and that's exactly the perspective she brings to the training.
A few questions you might be carrying.
