Trusted by the UK's leading businesses
Most businesses use AI. Few have leaders who can drive it.
AI is already inside almost every business. The gap between having the tools and getting commercial value from AI comes down to one thing: leadership capability.
The organisations pulling ahead have senior teams who can set AI direction, govern it responsibly and drive adoption that actually sticks. That's what this programme builds.

Get up to 100% of your training costs covered by the Growth & Skills Levy
Our AI Leadership training is funded through the Growth and Skills Levy, meaning most employers can access this programme with little to no additional training spend.
Non-Levy employers: If your payroll is under £3 million, you'll only pay 5% of the training costs, with the government funding the remaining 95%.
Levy-Paying employers: If your annual payroll exceeds £3 million, you're already contributing 0.5% to the Levy. Use funds you've already committed to develop your senior team. The full cost of the programme can be covered through your existing Levy pot, with no additional training spend required.
Assessment built for senior teams, not classrooms
C-suite leaders don't have time for written exams or theoretical assignments. Learners complete a structured skills-based assessment supported by Apprentify and validated by you, the employer. No written exams, no academic assignments. Just capability demonstrated through real workplace decisions.
