Five ways to upskill your team
Data & AI Fluency
Equip non-technical teams with the data literacy and AI awareness they need to make better decisions. From half-day immersions to multi-week programmes. Commercial, priced per engagement.
Technical Upskilling
Advance your existing data team's capabilities. SQL, Python, cloud platforms, AI tools — customised to your tech stack and business challenges. Commercial, scoped per engagement.
Funded Apprenticeships
Train your team through Level 3-5 programmes, funded by the levy you already pay — with even stronger terms for smaller employers. We handle the paperwork.
Custom Programmes
Blend fluency training for the many with deep funded routes for your champions — one provider, one plan, built around the change you're making.
Short Courses for Teams
Ready-to-go, practitioner-led short courses in data and AI — 5–6 weeks, from £995 a head, often covered by L&D budgets. Self-funded or invoiced to the business, with an iO-Sphere certificate. Each comes with a ready-to-forward L&D business case for sign-off.
Smaller employer without a levy pot? From August 2026 the funding tilts further your way — see apprenticeships for SMEs. Buying rather than building? You can hire trained talent from us.

Employer proof
What employers — and their people — say
“I'm in HR, so I went in thinking most of it wouldn't apply to me — but I ended up automating parts of our HR process and building a system that flags people ready for promotion. Would recommend if you're in a non-technical role.”
Steph
HR, BVNK
“We enrolled two of our analysts and both came back more capable and more confident. The programme paid for itself inside a quarter. We're already planning to put a third person through.”

Design a programme around your real data

Deliver on real work with practitioner coaches
Live sessions with coaches who've done the job, project work on real data, and measurable skill development your team can apply day one.
