ISO/IEC 42001 AI Management — built in as standard

Every programme we deliver includes alignment with ISO/IEC 42001, the international standard for AI management systems. For SMEs supplying larger organisations or tendering for public contracts, demonstrating responsible AI governance is increasingly a procurement requirement. We build this into our approach from day one — not bolted on at the end.

What does AI training for SMEs actually cover?

Our training goes well beyond showing people how to use ChatGPT. Here is what your team will understand and be able to do.

Generative AI and large language models

Your team will understand how tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot and Claude work — and more importantly, how to use them productively and safely in a business context.

AI productivity and workflow automation

We identify where AI can save your team real time — from drafting documents and summarising data to automating repetitive tasks and building AI-powered workflows.

AI governance and responsible AI

We build a documented AI governance framework for your organisation, covering data handling, acceptable use, risk management and alignment with ISO/IEC 42001.

AI strategy and competitive advantage

Beyond tools and training, we develop a 12-month AI roadmap that gives your leadership team a clear plan for sustainable AI adoption and competitive differentiation.

What our AI training clients say

"We went from wondering whether we should do something about AI to having working automations and a governance policy in place. The structured approach made all the difference."
Operations Process Control Services
"Gareth made AI feel accessible for a team that was genuinely nervous or sceptical about it. By the end of the first accelerator day, everyone had tried something new and could see how it applied to their role."
Design Fire Consultants
"Using AI BOTs was something we had not even considered. It is now part of our tender submissions and has already opened doors with clients who ask about AI governance."
