FAQ

Questions, answered

Something else?

We answer every message ourselves, usually the same working day.

Can AI summaries be trusted?

Often, but not always. AI can leave out important points or state things that are not in the source. The course gives you quick checks to catch both.

Is it all right to record meetings for AI notes?

Only with the right permissions and in line with your organisation's rules. The course explains what to consider before you switch on AI notes.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, if you have not started the course: ask within 14 days of buying and we will refund you in full. Once you start a course the sale is final, so if you want to see how our courses work first, try AI at Work: The Essentials, which is free. Your statutory rights are not affected.

Is this course up to date?

Always. AI changes every week, and so do we. We check this course every week. When an AI tool, the law or the guidance changes, the course changes, and the update reaches you straight away. The date of the last check is shown on this page, and every update is included in your 12 months of access.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes. Pass the 8 question quiz at 80% and you can download a certificate of completion as a PDF, with your name, the course title, the date and a verification code that anyone can check.

How long do I have access?

12 months from the day you buy, including every update we make to the course in that time. You can go back through the lessons as often as you like.

Can I take the course on my phone?

Yes. The course runs in your web browser on a phone, tablet or computer, with nothing to install, and it remembers where you got to.
