Frequently Asked Questions

What makes these workshops different from other AI training?2025-10-09T12:19:52+00:00

Our workshops focus on practical AI application rather than theory.

We don’t teach you to become a programmer. Instead, we show you how to use AI tools for the actual work you do every day.

Based on the #1 bestselling book “The AI Project Advantage,” our training is grounded in 20+ years of real business experience, not just technical knowledge.

Do I need technical skills or programming knowledge to attend?2025-10-12T12:40:50+00:00

No. If you can use email, you can attend our training.

Our workshops are specifically designed for non-technical professionals. We avoid technical jargon and focus on practical, hands-on skills that work in real business situations.

Which AI tools will we learn to use?2025-10-09T12:22:03+00:00

We work with the major AI platforms your company likely already uses:

  • ChatGPT
  • Claude
  • Microsoft Copilot
  • Google Gemini
  • Mistral

We adapt the training to match your company’s existing systems and tools.

For more advanced use cases (depending on which training is selected), such as for process automation, we may bring in additional AI tools such as n8n.

How does the training ensure EU AI Act compliance?2025-10-12T12:40:48+00:00

All our training programs integrate EU AI Act Article 4 requirements throughout the curriculum.

Participants receive a Certificate of Training that documents their AI literacy for compliance audits.

We cover AI fundamentals, usage, risks, data privacy, ethical usage, and documentation requirements.

Can you provide training in German or English?2025-10-12T12:40:47+00:00

Yes. All our workshops are available in both German and English.

We can also provide bilingual sessions if your team includes both German and English speakers, although from our experience it is far more effective to have sessions in a single language.

What is the minimum group size for booking?2025-10-09T12:24:59+00:00

Minimum group sizes vary by training or workshop type.

Contact us to discuss your specific needs.

We offer flexible pricing for different group sizes and can customize programs for larger teams.

Do you offer in-house training at our company location?2025-10-09T12:26:47+00:00

Yes. We provide both in-person training at your location and virtual training options.

In-person training allows for more hands-on collaboration, while virtual training offers flexibility for distributed teams and higher number of participants.

For in-person training, availability and travel requirements need to be considered while scheduling.

What happens after the training?2025-10-09T12:27:34+00:00

Participants receive ongoing access to training materials, templates, and resources.

For Management and Leadership programs, we can arrange follow-up sessions or dedicated guidance to support implementation and answer questions as your team applies what they learned.

How long does it take to see results after training?2025-10-12T12:40:45+00:00

Most participants report immediate productivity improvements, sometimes highlighting how they already achieve more with their new AI skills on the same day as training happens.

Simple automation tasks can be implemented the same day and show results within that week.

More complex AI integrations typically show measurable results within 30 days of training completion.

What if some team members are AI beginners while others are more advanced?2025-10-09T12:30:18+00:00

We offer training at different skill levels (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced).

For groups and teams with mixed skill levels, we recommend starting with Fundamentals for everyone to establish a common baseline, then offering advanced training for those ready to go deeper.

Are the trainings recognized for professional development?2025-10-09T12:31:07+00:00

All participants receive a Certificate of Training.

For EU AI Act compliance purposes, these certificates document formal AI literacy training as required by Article 4.

Can you customize the training for our specific industry?2025-10-09T12:35:31+00:00

The practical AI skills, tools and techniques we use work for any professional, so they will work in your industry.

Specific industry specialities, such as processes, dedicated software, industry expertise and market insights, are outside of the scope of our training and are best served by an expert from that industry.

While our core curriculum is industry-agnostic, we can incorporate your industry-specific examples and use cases if you like.

Contact us to discuss how we can tailor content to your sector’s unique challenges.

What is the cancellation policy?2025-10-09T12:36:31+00:00

Cancellation policies vary by training type and booking details.

Standard terms include full refund if cancelled 30+ days before training, 50% refund for 15-30 days notice.

Contact us for specific terms when booking.

How can our company measure ROI from your AI training?2025-10-09T12:39:46+00:00

We provide frameworks and tools for measuring productivity gains, time savings, revenue potential, error reduction, and project acceleration.

Typical ROI metrics include:

  • hours saved per week / month / year per employee
  • faster project completion times
  • lowered risk of regulatory fines (including EU AI Act)
  • process KPIs
  • improved decision-making quality
Can we claim training costs as a business expense or tax deduction?2025-10-12T12:40:44+00:00

Yes. AI training is generally fully tax-deductible as a business expense in Germany and throughout the EU.

Training costs in Germany qualify as Betriebsausgaben (business expenses) and can be deducted from your company’s taxable income. Many other countries have similar rules.

Additionally, some German states and EU programs offer Weiterbildungsförderung (continuing education subsidies) that may cover 30-70% of training costs. We can provide the necessary documentation and invoices for your tax filing and subsidy applications.

What if our competitors are already using AI and we’re falling behind?2025-10-12T12:40:42+00:00

You’re not alone. Many businesses are just beginning their AI journey.

The EU AI Act compliance deadline makes 2025 a critical year for AI adoption.

Companies that act now gain competitive advantage while those who delay risk falling further behind.

The good news: AI skills are faster to acquire than most people think. Your team can be productive with AI tools within days of training, not months.

Do we need to purchase AI tool licenses before training?2025-10-09T12:49:04+00:00

For many companies, no additional licenses are needed to start.

Our training shows what the opportunities of using the free versions of the most popular AI tools are, but also highlights the significant risks. Therefore, we do discuss the functionality and usage of paid and enterprise versions of these tools.

Most companies already have options to access premium AI tools through existing business software subscriptions. Microsoft 365 includes Copilot options, Google Workspace includes Gemini, and free tiers of ChatGPT and Claude are available for basic use but also have business licenses.

Many companies ask us to train their teams in the usage of the premium versions of these AI tools after they have made the decision to upgrade. Others consult with us first to decide which tools may be right for them before making the investment decision.

We’ll assess your current tools during booking and recommend the most cost-effective approach.

What happens if employees leave after we invest in their training?2025-10-09T12:50:40+00:00

AI literacy has already become an expected baseline professional skill, like email or Excel.

Training your team increases retention because employees value companies that invest in their development.

Additionally, EU AI Act compliance requires documented training for anyone using AI systems, so you’ll need to train current teams and replacements anyway.

The competitive disadvantage of having an untrained team far outweighs the risk of trained employees leaving.

What makes Nick Skillicorn qualified to teach AI implementation?2025-10-12T12:40:40+00:00

Nick brings 20+ years of management consulting experience with the world’s largest companies, specializing in innovation and transformation project delivery.

As author of the #1 bestselling book “The AI Project Advantage”, he’s demonstrated expertise in practical AI application.

Unlike purely technical trainers, Nicholas has been “in the trenches” of business operations and understands the real challenges managers and teams face daily.

He holds certifications in AI implementation and is registered as a consultant through Improvides Consulting GmbH.

Do participants need to bring their own laptops to training?2025-10-09T13:01:45+00:00

For data security and privacy reasons, we highly recommend all team members use their own computers during training.

In most cases, this means that participants should bring their own laptops to wherever the training takes place, or the company provides them with a laptop.

If training takes place remotely, then participants can use the computer they use to view the training.

Note: some training, such as that for EU AI Act compliance express, do not require active usage of the systems, and therefore do not require a computer while the training is happening.
