Training & Strategy

From skills training to custom-built systems

Our Approach

From “what’s AI?” to “why didn’t we start this sooner?”

This isn’t about giving you a headache with 47 different AI tools and complex prompt frameworks. We start with what matters: saving you time on the routine stuff, then moving on to the strategic wins that make your leadership team go “how did you do that so fast?”

We meet you where you are – whether that’s building AI literacy across your whole team, giving leaders the skills and strategy to lead adoption confidently, or providing long-term implementation support.

Training Programmes

GenAI for Business: Practical Skills for Any Role (Day Workshop)

Booking Now: 29th October – Online multi-company cohort

Your team hears about AI everywhere but doesn’t know where to start. Some are experimenting on their own, others are worried about getting it wrong. Without proper guidance, you’re missing efficiency gains while risking inconsistent outputs and policy breaches.

Who’s it for? Any team member who wants to work smarter with AI – perfect for mixed groups across departments. No technical background needed.

What you get:

  • Understand what AI can and can’t do reliably
  • Write effective prompts for consistent, quality results
  • Apply AI to common work tasks across different roles
  • Work safely within governance frameworks
  • Immediate time savings from day one

Training your whole team?

A programme run just for you may work out better – get in touch  and we’ll talk it through.

Practical AI for Senior Leaders (Day Workshop)

Bespoke in-person training

Your team’s already using AI – whether you know it or not. Some are experimenting in secret, others are stuck waiting for direction. You’re expected to lead a transformation you don’t fully understand yourself.

Who’s it for? Senior leaders and decision-makers who need practical AI skills before they can lead AI adoption confidently.

What you get:

  • Hands-on practice with AI tools on real tasks
  • Prompting techniques that get consistently good results
  • Clear understanding of where AI adds real value versus hype
  • Risk and governance essentials
  • Your action plan – know exactly what to implement on Monday morning

What’s next? Most leaders go on to the AI Strategy Accelerator – a six-week programme that builds your company-wide AI roadmap.

AI Strategy Accelerator (6-Week Programme)

Bespoke hybrid training

There’s huge appetite for AI in essential industries – but most companies don’t know where to start. Generic advice doesn’t account for compliance demands, tender processes, or reputation management that define our sectors.

Who’s it for? Senior and middle managers ready to create a practical, business-wide action plan for AI adoption.

What you get:

  • Company-wide AI roadmap – from leadership to marketing, operations, and service delivery
  • Online or in-person workshops with live Q&A support
  • Practical assignments applied to your real business priorities
  • Discovery session to identify opportunities and readiness
  • Optional 6 or 12-month implementation support
  • Prompt libraries, workflow templates, and best-practice frameworks

Every programme is built around your business, so it starts with a conversation about where you’re at and what you’re trying to achieve.

Microsoft Copilot Mastery (6-Week Programme)

Online multi-company cohorts

Booking now: 6th October-5th November

Booking now: 13th January-17th February

Your organisation has invested in Copilot licences, but most people are barely using it. Some don’t use it at all. Others get inconsistent results and give up. You’re paying for capability you’re not using.

Who’s it for? Teams who have Copilot but aren’t getting value from it. Suitable for any role – no technical background needed.

What you get:

  • Core Copilot capabilities across Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook
  • Prompting techniques for consistent, quality outputs
  • Meeting summaries and action tracking in Teams
  • Email management and response drafting
  • Document creation and editing at speed
  • Custom workflows for your specific industry needs

Training more than eight people?

AI Marketing Roadmap (On-Demand Course)

Start any time and work at your own pace.

Spending hours on plans and proposals? Struggling to keep up with content demands? This 10-module course shows you exactly how to use AI to maximise efficiency and deliver measurable ROI – tailored for cleaning, FM, and environmental sectors.

Who’s it for? Marketing professionals who need to prove ROI with limited resources, accelerate tender responses, and scale content output without hiring more staff.

What you’ll achieve:

  • Win more tenders by cutting proposal response time by 50-70%
  • Build content strategies in hours, not days
  • Save 10+ hours per week to focus on strategy, not execution

What you get:

  • 9 hours of on-demand training across 10 modules
  • Industry-specific prompt templates and workflows
  • Live monthly check-in with Ceris – ask questions, stay current as tools change
  • AI policy templates and ROI tracking frameworks

What makes this different: Industry-specific, B2B-focused, practical workflows, accessible tools (ChatGPT, Copilot), dedicated tender acceleration module.

Training a team?

Most companies put a group through together – it’s how the habits stick. Team rates are available from two seats, and for larger groups we’ll build a package with a tailored onboarding session.

One client put nine people through the course and asked not to be named – they see it as competitive advantage.

Bespoke Training & Long-Term Support

Sometimes you need something different:

  • Bespoke training for your specific team or challenge
  • Long-term implementation consultancy (6 or 12 months)
  • Custom-built AI systems for your business (tender tools, compliance assistants, process improvement)

We’ll design the right support for where you are.
