Practical AI Training
for Irish Businesses.

Jonathan comes to your office and delivers a practical, hands-on session for your team — no slides for the sake of slides, no theory for the sake of theory. A half-day runs 3.5 hours and covers the AI tools your team will actually use: Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Google Gemini, or Claude, depending on what suits your business. Participants leave knowing how to use these tools in their day-to-day roles — not just what they are. Groups of up to 15–20 people work best. Every session is tailored to your sector and your workflows before we arrive.

Yes — and this is one of the most common situations we encounter across Irish companies. Buying Copilot licences is the easy part. Getting your team to use them effectively, safely, and in ways that actually save time is a completely different challenge. Research consistently shows that structured AI training produces employees who are 3x more productive with these tools than those left to figure it out themselves. A licence without training is like handing someone a car without teaching them to drive.

Absolutely. Jonathan has trained over 1,000 people across Ireland, and the most common group is a mixed room — some people who’ve never opened ChatGPT, and some who use it daily. The session is designed to work for both at the same time. No technical background is needed, no jargon, and nobody gets left behind. Testimonials consistently highlight that the training is “pitched at just the right level” regardless of the mix in the room.

Microsoft and Google teach you their products. Jonathan teaches your team how to work smarter — using those products in the context of your actual job, your actual documents, your actual workflows, and the GDPR environment your Irish business operates in. He’s also independent, which means he’ll tell you when Copilot is the right tool and when it isn’t. That honesty is rare, and it’s what makes the training stick.

This is the right question to be asking, and it’s addressed directly in every session. The short answer is: it depends entirely on which tools your team is using and how. Enterprise-grade tools like Microsoft 365 Copilot and ChatGPT Team are designed so that your data is never used to train public models. Free consumer versions carry real risk. A key part of Jonathan’s training is giving your team clear, practical rules around what data is safe to share with AI, what isn’t, and why — so your company stays GDPR-compliant and your IP stays protected.

In many cases, yes. Skillnet Ireland subsidises workforce training for Irish businesses across most sectors, typically covering 30–50% of training costs. This means an in-house AI training session that would otherwise cost several thousand euro can be significantly reduced. The process varies by which Skillnet network covers your sector. We recommend checking skillnetireland.ie to find your relevant network — and it’s worth doing before booking, as the savings can be meaningful.

Yes. In-house training is delivered anywhere in Ireland. Jonathan has trained teams in Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, and across the country. In-person delivery is always preferred because the group dynamic and hands-on environment produce better outcomes — but online delivery is available when in-person isn’t practical. Wherever you are, the session comes to you.

If your team is already using free AI tools on personal devices for work tasks — and most teams are, whether management knows it or not — then you’re already past the point where “not yet” is a safe answer. The question isn’t whether your people are using AI. It’s whether they’re doing it safely, effectively, and in a way that benefits the business rather than creating compliance risk. A 30-minute discovery call is the right starting point. We’ll have an honest conversation about where your team is and what makes sense.

It’s somewhere between a sales call and a free consultation — and Jonathan is upfront about that. The aim is to understand your team’s size, their current relationship with AI tools, what your business actually does, and whether in-house training makes sense for you right now. If it doesn’t, he’ll say so. If it does, you’ll leave the call with a clear picture of what a session would look like and what it would cost. There’s no pressure, no follow-up bombardment, and no obligation. Book it, have the conversation, and take it from there.
