Skills your team can apply from Monday.
Practical short courses in data, artificial intelligence and design thinking. One or two days each, with hands-on learning from the opening hour — taught by people who do actually have the skills.
The skills your team needs right now.
Choose a course and see exactly what both days cover before committing anyone's diary or budget.
Stop being handed numbers you can't question.
Most people in a business are given data and expected to act on it, with no training in how to read it, question it or present it. Two days fixes that — from a messy spreadsheet to clear insights you can confidently put in front of a decision-maker.
Who it's for. Managers, analysts and anyone who works with data or relies on it to make decisions.
You leave with. A practical analysis of a real workplace data example, and a clearer way to turn data into better decisions.

- Know where your data comes from
- Spot what the numbers are really saying
- Clean up messy data

- Turn data into a clear story
No coding required. No specialist software needed.
Putting data to work

Past the hype. Into the actual work.

Booking one day? Day one stands alone.
Solve the right problem, not the obvious one.
A structured way to get from a vague problem to a tested solution, borrowed from product design and pointed at whatever your business is stuck on. You run a real challenge of your own through the full process instead of a case study.
Who it's for. Teams solving the wrong problem well: product, service, operations and strategy people.
You leave with a tested concept for a live challenge from your own business, and the pitch to go with it.
Understanding the real problem
- The process end to end, and when it's the wrong tool
- Interviewing users without leading them
- Empathy mapping and synthesising what you heard
- Separating the symptom from the problem
- Framing a sharp "how might we" challenge
- First round of ideas, fast and unfiltered
Bring a live problem. That's what you'll work on.
Prototype, test, pitch
- Structured ideation that gets past the obvious three
- Low-fidelity prototyping: paper, clicks, storyboards
- Testing the idea, getting feedback, and learning fast
- Reading feedback honestly and iterating
- Pitching the solution to a decision-maker
- Take-home: a tested concept for a live challenge
