We’re living in a world where AI adoption is outpacing AI literacy.

Global research shows that three in four employees say they’re using some form of AI at work.

Of these, over 50% say that they hide their AI use on important tasks, and up to 80% say that they are bringing their own AI to work.

More people are using AI, without understanding how it works, without telling their employers that they are using it, without considering the implications, and without knowing how to get the most from the tools they’re using.

This is where AI literacy becomes essential - it’s not just knowing how to use AI tools, it’s about understanding what’s possible, and knowing you don’t need to be technically savvy to use it well.

This practical two-hour in-person workshop is for real people in real businesses; who want to use AI to do more with the resources and tools they already have.

You’ll learn:

What AI actually is, where it’s heading, and why it matters for every kind of business
The best tools for things like admin, planning, performance, content, customer service, and strategy – and what to avoid
How to use AI responsibly: the risks, red flags, and how to keep it ethical
How to “train” AI to sound like you and reflect your business, not bland templates
Step-by-step ways to save yourself hours each week, without sacrificing quality
How to onboard AI into your organisation, and avoid spending hours setting up new tools
Why mindset is everything – and how early adopters are getting ahead fast.

This workshop is built for:

✔️ Both AI beginners and curious dabblers

✔️ Business owners and operators

✔️ SME teams across any sector: retail, trades, services, health, education, not-for-profit, and more

✔️ Anyone who’s been avoiding AI or feeling overwhelmed by the hype.

You’ll walk away with:

A clear, practical understanding of how AI works and how to use it
Proven tools tailored for small businesses
Plug-and-play workflows to save time and reduce mental load
Confidence to use AI without compromising your brand, your values, or your people.

No tech jargon. No hype. Just real-world tools, clear explanations, and fresh thinking for busy people in any business.
