At PracticalAI, we compare AI to the humble spreadsheets every business uses – it’s an incredibly powerful tool, but 20 years ago without some basic skills and training it might have been mistaken for just a silly gimmick.
The truth is, just like the humble spreadsheet, AI will be a game-changer for every business and professional across every industry – if you know how to use it.

“…a fantastic learning experience.
This course would be valuable to everyone, especially public servants who may have recently lost their jobs, and public services trying to figure out how to replace what their people used to do.
This is not a moment to look back. This course enables the motivated to not only look forward but practice how to start moving forward.”
