Get Your Business AI-Ready with the AI Business Accelerator Course

Most business leaders know AI is now something they need to address within their organisation.

What’s far less clear is where to start, what responsible AI looks like, and how to approach AI in a way that actually benefits your business and your people.

The AI Business Accelerator Training Course from South West AI Solutions is designed to guide you through that first step.

This practical half-day course is for those who want to prepare their organisation for AI adoption in a structured, responsible and people-focused way.

You’ll learn how AI can support everyday work, how to introduce it safely across teams, and how to reduce the risk to your organisation by putting the right AI governance foundations in place, before it becomes uncontrolled.

This course will provide you with a clear starting point, practical examples, and a roadmap to help your organisation becoming AI-ready.

What people are saying about the course

“An excellent course, which provided a clear pathway to the successful adoption of AI within our company.”

Roger Menzies, Cornish Lithium

“For some time, I had been concerned about the impact of AI on the workplace and felt the need to learn more. Although I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect, I decided to sign up for the course, and it turned out to be one of the wisest decisions I’ve made in 2025. I now feel far better prepared for 2026, not only in terms of embedding and managing AI within my own business, but also in supporting the companies I work with on business improvement initiatives centred on ISO standards.”

Rob Hines, Coaction Solutions Ltd

“The AI Business Accelerator Programme was a masterclass in understanding AI. The course was more than just showing what AI is capable of doing and how it can benefit organisations. It also covered the governance of AI and how to implement an effective AI policy. It was a great course, very informative and thought-provoking, with practical ‘how-to’ sessions.”

Vicki Banthorpe, Momentum for Professionals
