This course truly exceeded my expectations. While 'amazing' is a good summary, it doesn't fully capture the impact. The material was presented in a clear and engaging way, and the practical exercises solidified my understanding of the concepts.I'm already seeing the benefits in my work.

Impressive! This course was a well-designed exploratory overview of the impacts and opportunities that leaders need to consider when enhancing their current AI process, and for those looking to start afresh. I have 12 To-Do tasks on my phone from this course. Overall, excellent course, and I look forward to learning more from the team.

FAQ

Got more questions?

These are the most common questions we get asked about this course:

How will this course benefit my business or career?

You will learn practical AI leadership skills that you can apply directly in your role. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to:
  • Identify real AI opportunities and use cases in your business that drive value.
  • Engage in informed discussions about AI with stakeholders, clients, and colleagues, bridging the gap between technical teams and business strategy.
  • Understand and mitigate AI-related risks, and plan for the impacts of AI on your organisation’s brand, people, and culture.
  • Stay ahead of the curve by integrating AI into your business strategy, ensuring you remain competitive (and relevant) in the fast-changing AI era.


All of these capabilities will directly benefit your career and company. You’ll be equipped to lead AI initiatives confidently, make data-driven strategic decisions, and drive innovation.

This means you can deliver tangible business results and further your career advancement with the AI knowledge you gain. In short, the course empowers you to become an AI-savvy leader who can turn new technology into business value.

How does the AI tutor Work?

In key sections of the course, you'll have a personalised 10-minute conversation with Alex, your AI tutor. 

Alex knows the course content inside-out and adapts to your specific business context - whether you're in healthcare, finance, retail, or any other industry. Rather than generic discussions, Alex helps you work through real scenarios from your world

For example, after learning about AI brand risks, Alex might ask about your company's customer base and guide you through thinking about how they'd react to AI implementation. You'll work through the specific concerns your customers might have and develop concrete strategies to address them. 

When covering AI risks, Alex helps you identify which risks matter most to your specific business context. Instead of just learning about data privacy or competitive disadvantage in theory, you'll think through early warning signs for your industry and develop practical mitigation strategies you can actually implement.

Think of it as having a knowledgeable colleague who's read all the latest AI business research and can help you apply it to your situation. Alex asks thoughtful questions, builds on your answers, and helps you move from "I understand the concept" to "I know exactly how this applies to my business." You'll leave each tutoring session with concrete insights and next steps, not just theoretical knowledge.

I’m not a tech expert – will I be able to keep up with this course?

Absolutely. This program is designed specifically for business leaders with no technical background required. It focuses on real-world business applications of AI rather than coding or complex math. All concepts are explained in clear, non-technical terms, so you won’t get lost in jargon. The course was created “by business leaders, for business leaders,” ensuring the content is accessible and immediately relevant to executives, leaders and professionals like you. You’ll gain confidence understanding AI at a strategic level, meaning you can fully grasp the material and apply it, even if you’re not a tech expert.

Can I really fit this course into my busy schedule?

Yes – it’s built for busy professionals. The course is completely self-paced, so you set the schedule. Lessons are broken into bite-sized modules, making it easy to learn in short bursts whenever you find time (for example, during a lunch break or flight). All content is on-demand, meaning you can pause and resume anytime across your devices. There are no deadlines or fixed class times – whether you have an hour free or just 15 minutes, you can make progress at your own pace. Even if your work schedule is unpredictable, you won’t fall behind. This flexibility ensures that even with a packed calendar, you can comfortably complete the course or catch up on new content on your terms.

I can find loads of AI resources online for free (and some pricey executive courses too).
Is AI for Business Leaders really worth it?

Yes—because it gives you executive‑level impact at a fraction of the usual cost, with none of the DIY hassle.
  • Cuts through the noise. Free blogs and videos are hit‑or‑miss and often too technical or shallow. Our curriculum is curated and sequenced for senior decision‑makers, so you spend every study minute on material that directly drives revenue, efficiency, and competitive advantage. 
  • Cheaper than comparable executive programmes that are 8-10 times more our price, which are often delivered by academics with limited real-world business knowledge, supported by technology industry leaders selling their solutions, not necessarily solving business problems.
  • Lifetime value, not one‑off content. You keep permanent access—and we push out fresh content when the AI landscape shifts, so your knowledge stays current without buying another course.
  • Immediate ROI. Past participants routinely identify AI initiatives that save or earn well over £10 k within months. One well‑chosen automation or data‑driven decision can pay back the fee many times over.

  • Risk‑free guarantee. You have a full 14 days to explore the course; if it’s not for you, we refund 100 %.


In short, our price secures you the structure, expert insight, and up‑to‑date guidance senior leaders need—at a price that’s far lower than other professional AI programmes and trivial compared with the business value you’ll unlock.

There are many AI courses out there – what makes this one different?

This course is uniquely tailored to business leader and business professional needs. Unlike technical courses or generic AI overviews, this programme zeroes in on business strategy and real-world application of AI. It skips the irrelevant theory and coding, and instead covers how to leverage AI in decision-making, operations, innovation, and leadership. In other words, it speaks your language as a business leader or professional, focusing on practical outcomes like competitive advantage, efficiency, and risk management in an AI context.

Importantly, you’ll be learning from seasoned industry leaders, not just academics. The curriculum was developed by experts with decades of experience advising CEOs and implementing transformations at major companies. 

Additionally, AI for Business Leaders has a proven track record – over 100,000 professionals have completed the course and over 27,000 have given it outstanding reviews. That social proof shows it consistently delivers results and satisfaction at scale. The content is also regularly kept up-to-date (unlike many static courses) and now includes AI Tutoring calls. All these factors make this course a standout choice. You’re not just buying content – you’re getting a roadmap for AI success that’s been validated by many others like you. No other programme offers this blend of business focus and expert insight which is why it’s the top choice for leaders and professionals who want to lead in the AI age.

AI is evolving rapidly – will the course content stay up to date?

Yes, absolutely. We know the AI landscape changes fast, and the course is designed to keep pace. The content is regularly updated to include the latest trends, case studies, and best practices as the field evolves. In fact, the course team continuously monitors new developments in AI and refreshes the modules accordingly. When you enroll, you get access to all future updates at no extra cost, so your knowledge will remain current long after you complete the initial lessons. This means you’re effectively getting a living, breathing resource – whenever AI advances, the course material is enhanced to reflect the new reality. You can always log back in to learn about emerging tools or strategies. With this approach, you’ll stay on the cutting edge of AI in business, without needing to buy new courses every year. It’s a learning investment that keeps you up-to-date and ahead of the curve continuously.

What if the course doesn’t meet my expectations? Can I get a refund?

We want you to be 100% satisfied. That’s why the course comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee. If you enroll and realize it isn’t the right fit for you, you have a full 14 days to request a refund – no questions asked. Simply contact us within two weeks of purchase, and we’ll promptly return your payment in full.

This policy means you can try the course completely risk-free. We’re confident you’ll find it valuable (which is why fewer than 1% of learners ever request a refund), but we’ve removed any risk to you. In short, you can enroll with peace of mind: if it doesn’t deliver the value you expected, you get your money back. With nothing to lose and so much to gain, you can move forward and start the course with confidence.

Do I receive a certificate when I finish?

Yes — you’ll earn a Certificate of Completion the moment you finish the course.
  • Digital & shareable. Your certificate comes as a high‑resolution PDF.
  • Signals executive‑level expertise. The credential confirms you understand how to identify, scope, and lead high‑value AI initiatives from a business perspective — a capability still rare (and highly sought after) among senior professionals. 
  • Backed by real‑world credibility. It bears the AI Leaders Academy seal and the signatures of our lead instructors, each with decades of experience advising larger businesses
  • Permanent record. Your certificate never expires and remains accessible in your learner dashboard, along with future course updates.

Can I purchase the course for my entire team?

Absolutely — we make it simple (and cost‑effective) to upskill any size group. Contact us directly and we will reply within 48 hours to discuss how we can prepare you teams to lead effectively in the AI era.

You can book your 45-minute strategy session from 3 weeks after purchase, subject to mutual calendar availability.
