Non-Profit, Government & Education

AI training for mission-driven organisations that need practical capability, not hype, often with tighter budgets and smaller teams.

Teams we've trained include

  • A leading UK environmental think tank and charity focused on ambitious policy for the environment
  • A charity working to transform school food by training chefs and improving nutrition for children
  • A leadership development organisation working with senior leaders across the public and private sectors
  • The UK’s innovation agency and national institute for data science and artificial intelligence
  • The London School of Economics’ entrepreneurship programme supporting student and alumni founders
  • A top-five global business school delivering executive education, MBA, and leadership programmes
  • An entrepreneurship education programme helping aspiring founders build and launch tech startups
  • The UK’s national legislature, supporting parliamentary teams with research and administrative work
  • The UK’s leading HIV and sexual health charity, working across prevention, support, and policy
  • London’s official promotional and economic development agency, working to grow the capital’s economy
  • A European climate policy charity with offices in Brussels and London
  • The research and innovation division of a leading London university

Why firms like yours hire us

  • Our AI training for charities and public sector organisations frees staff time for mission-critical work, with a focus on confident, responsible use.
  • We use your policy reports, research briefings, funding bids and audience-specific communications, in the tools IT has already approved.
  • We've trained charities, a leadership development organisation, a national research institute and teams at leading London universities.
  • Each team, from policy and programmes to comms and fundraising, is trained on its own work, with one-to-one coaching available.

AI use cases from our charity, public sector and education clients

Each one was built in our sessions with clients like yours, and comes from our library of more than 1,000 AI use cases.

Policy monitoring digest

Small teams cannot track every development. A scheduled digest pulls policy changes from official sources and ranks them by significance.

Funder terms check

Proposals get rejected on technicalities. Each one is checked against the funder's terms, clause by clause, before submission.

Simulated funder panel

Proposals rarely get challenged before submission. A simulated panel of funders stress-tests each one and suggests how to strengthen it.

Policymaker rehearsal

Briefings land badly when objections were not anticipated. Teams rehearse against a sceptical AI policymaker before publication.

Policy knowledge agent

Past positions are hard to find. A shared agent answers questions from your publications and consultation responses, separating internal from public views.

Funding landscape dashboard

Mapping who funds what takes weeks. Interactive dashboards show funding flows by funder, geography and recipient.

How your peers are moving

Charities, regulators and sector bodies are moving AI out of the hands of a few keen individuals and into the whole workforce, with staff policies, tools for every colleague and hands-on pilots in real teams. Few of them have the budget to build their own programme, so we give your team the same footing in days, not years.

Scope

The disability equality charity rolled out its own accessible AI assistant, Moira, to all staff. Its 2024-25 annual report says Moira supports every colleague, protects data and improves confidence in AI use, with a specialist digital team helping colleagues trial AI in day-to-day work.

Arts Council England

A 2024 staff survey found 42% already using AI, 80% wanting to learn more and only 20% with any AI training. The Arts Council responded with a staff AI policy, Copilot Chat for every employee, a cross-grade reference group acting as a community of practice, all-staff briefings and five internal pilots.

Jisc

The education technology membership body ran AI impact workshops with teams across the organisation in 2025, where colleagues identified hundreds of tasks AI could help with. It then built AI agents for its HR, legal and procurement teams, and staff asked the HR agent 775 questions during the pilot.

Information Commissioner's Office

The UK data protection regulator upskilled its people in data and AI during 2025-26 and published its own AI use policy. Staff now use AI from office productivity to case work, and the first draft of its own annual report was written with a government AI tool before directors and the comms team shaped it.

Charity Commission

The charity regulator made Copilot Chat its first significant use of AI in 2025-26, alongside digital and AI baseline training for every member of staff. It also introduced a generative AI policy and a checklist for assessing new AI ideas as more teams propose them.

We can usually identify your highest-impact use cases in a single conversation.

What we train on

  • Writing emails, collating FAQs, and designing process maps
  • Summarising reading before meetings
  • Proofreading and summarising long documents
  • Building web pages without coding skills
  • Managing priorities and reminders
  • Generating campaign and communications content

Courses for non-profit, government & education teams

What makes us different

  • Everything is bespoke. Each session is built around your own data, workflows and use cases, such as your policy reports, research briefings and funding bids, so people practise on real work.
  • Our instructors are AI practitioners, not career trainers. They are founders, operators and advisers who use AI in their own work every day, so they answer the hard questions from direct experience.
  • We take a data-driven approach. We survey your teams before and after the programme and measure time saved, AI adoption and return on investment, so you can see exactly what changed.
  • We are a full-service AI enablement partner. Beyond the training, we offer AI strategy for leadership, one-to-one coaching for key people, and rollouts across multiple teams.

How we get your team there

A practical playbook

  1. 1

    Anchor it in the work your reputation rests on

    Start where accuracy matters most: research, policy briefings, funding bids, and public communications. Organisations that tie AI to that work, rather than a general push to save time, build capability that stands up to scrutiny.

  2. 2

    Build on real documents and workflows

    Teams adopt faster when training uses their actual reports, briefings, and bids, in the tool IT has already approved, which is often Copilot. Abstract demos generate interest. Working with live material changes behaviour.

  3. 3

    Fix the data and access rules early

    Send a short checklist to whoever manages licences and permissions before the day, and agree what can go into the tool. Most organisations find that IT set-up and data rules, not model capability, are the real constraints.

  4. 4

    Measure adoption, not enthusiasm

    A short survey before the session gives a baseline, the same questions afterwards show what changed, and anything set up to run on its own gets a named owner. The goal is a smaller set of workflows the team trusts enough to rely on.

“We went from dabbling to making AI core to the way that every single person in the organisation works.”

Leadership team, The Forward Institute

“An incredibly informative, educational and enjoyable course that helped me understand how AI can be utilised in several ways - and easily implemented to help me work smarter, not harder.”

Lewis Reynolds, Funding Associate at Thirty Percy Foundation

“Really loved the course. Super interesting and useful.”
