Organisations don't underperform because of strategy. They underperform because of capability gaps — in their people, their teams, and the cultures that shape how work actually gets done. At Acudemy, our work starts from a simple premise: when you invest in the right skills at the right level, performance follows.

We are a UK-based professional training organisation established in 2014, with a track record of developing capability across technical, leadership and behavioural disciplines for over 300 organisations across the UK and internationally. We work with businesses and institutions to design and deliver learning that builds real, lasting competence in the people who drive performance day to day.

Our work spans payroll and finance, project and change management, digital skills, leadership and management, workplace wellbeing and continuous improvement. These disciplines reflect the breadth of capability that modern organisations need to function well, adapt quickly and sustain strong results. Every programme we deliver is built around practical application, because the measure of learning is what changes when people return to work.

We hold accreditations and partnerships with CMI, PRINCE2, AgilePM, Lean Six Sigma, CIPD, IAB, ITIL and Sage, and our programmes are designed to align with the real environments and pressures our clients face. Delivery is flexible — classroom, virtual, on-site or blended — shaped around your organisation rather than a fixed schedule.

What we offer

Technical and compliance capability — payroll, finance, HR and IT programmes that build precision, confidence and regulatory literacy across your teams.

Leadership and management development — practical programmes that strengthen how your managers lead, make decisions and create conditions for performance.

Digital and analytical skills — Excel, Power BI, AI literacy and broader digital capability built for the modern professional environment.

Behavioural and organisational development — DEI, mental health awareness, resilience and soft skills that strengthen culture, communication and team performance.

Why organisations work with Acudemy

Our clients include Barclays, BT, British American Tobacco, DFDS, FlixBus, Thames Water and the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), among many others across the public, private and third sectors. Our trainers bring direct industry experience alongside instructional expertise, and our programmes are consistently rated for the quality of facilitation and the practicality of what delegates take away.

We understand that a training investment only has value if it changes how people perform. That is the standard we hold ourselves to on every engagement — and why the organisations we work with continue to come back.

Our mission is to help organisations build the skilled, capable and confident people they need to perform and grow. Our vision is to be the development partner that organisations return to, programme after programme and year after year.

AI First Training delivers expert-led classroom, online, and on-site training in Claude AI for businesses. Every course is built around practical, hands-on instruction for real-world workflows — not abstract AI theory — and taught by practitioners who use Claude in their own businesses every day.

The course catalogue covers the full spectrum of Claude adoption: the Claude for Business series (101, 201, and Masterclass) for teams building AI-powered ways of working, the Claude Code series for those developing technical build skills with Claude, and focused one-day specialist modules — Claude for SMEs, Claude for Design, Claude for Marketing, and Claude for Sales — for role-specific application. Bespoke and executive programmes are also available, tailored to a company's specific tools, workflows, and goals.

Training is delivered flexibly — classroom (capped at 10 participants for close instructor attention), live online, one-to-one, or on-site/corporate — with public course locations in London, Edinburgh, Manchester, and Plymouth. Every course includes a free resit if unsatisfied, 30 days of post-training support, and recording access for all participants, so learning continues well beyond the training day itself.

About AISensa Academy

Most AI training in regulated firms is a guess. Partners, HR directors, and compliance leads either estimate what their teams need or run a staff survey to find out. What people think they need and what the data actually shows are often two very different things.

AISensa Academy is the first training provider able to close that gap with evidence rather than assumption.

Through our AI Usage & Competency Assessment, a free, two-week diagnostic built with our technical partner, we deploy a lightweight sensor across your firm (or within a pilot group) in under an hour, then monitor two weeks of real AI usage: what tools your people are actually using, how they're using them, and exactly where the governance risk sits.

The result is a training programme built entirely around your firm's actual gaps, not a generic course catalogue. What's more, the assessment itself is fully funded by us, at no cost to you.

AISensa Academy provides AI literacy training for regulated firms: law firms, accountancy practices and financial services businesses that need their teams trained on AI governance and compliance, not just AI tools.

We train two audiences:

1. general staff, on safe day-to-day AI use, data handling, and verifying AI output before relying on it
2. senior managers and compliance officers, on regulatory mapping, human oversight, DPIAs, vendor risk, and building an evidence trail regulators can inspect

The Business Case for AI Governance Training

Untrained AI use is no longer a hypothetical risk. The EU AI Act's AI literacy obligation has applied since February 2025.

In accountancy, the FRC's 2025 guidance on AI in audit and ICAEW's revised Code of Ethics both point to the same gap: junior staff are often the ones interacting most with AI tools, and firms need a real training framework, not just a policy, to manage that responsibly.

In financial services, the FCA has been directly asking firms how they oversee AI, test and monitor its outputs, and explain AI-driven decisions to customers, while confirming that existing senior manager accountability (SM&CR) already covers AI, whether a firm has trained for it or not.

In legal, the gap just became explicit. On 17 August 2026, the SRA issued its first formal warning notice on AI misuse: "AI has no separate legal personality," and your firm carries the accountability for AI-assisted work regardless of which tool produced it — the SRA "can and will act." The notice cites four cases of fabricated citations reaching real court submissions, plus 42 AI misuse reports logged in the past year, with live investigations under way.

Across all three sectors, the pattern is identical: the accountability already sits with your firm. Training is how you close the gap before a regulator, auditor, or insurer asks you to. Our assessment shows you exactly which gap to close first.

Who We're Built For

Legal — Where client matter confidentiality is a governance obligation, not a courtesy. Training is framed around Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and Law Society of Scotland supervision expectations, the professional duty to verify AI-assisted work before it reaches a client or a court, and the practical realities of Court of Protection and litigation practice.

Accountancy — Where client financial data volume and Financial Reporting Council (FRC) obligations mean AI adoption and compliance risk are the same conversation. Training is framed around evidencing client data governance alongside the productivity case for AI-assisted work.

Financial Services — Where FCA-regulated firms (Financial Conduct Authority) carry audit-trail and customer-outcome obligations for any AI-assisted decision. Training is framed around Consumer Duty, individualised review trails, and demonstrable oversight.

Our Approach

We are translators, not certifiers. ISO 42001, the EU AI Act, and sector guidance from the SRA, FRC and FCA are dense and written for specialists. Our job is to convert that into training your teams can act on, not a compliance lecture.

Our syllabus is benchmarked against ISO/IEC 42001, the EU AI Act, UK GDPR, and guidance from the SRA, LSS, FCA, PRA and FCA, and further checked against academic frameworks including LSE's AI Law, Policy and Governance programme, so the content stands on the same regulatory ground taught at postgraduate level, translated for practical use.

Training is tiered by seniority. General staff and senior managers each get a distinct track, mirroring the AML training model regulated firms already run.

What We Offer

• AI Usage & Competency Assessment: a free, two-week diagnostic that reveals exactly how your people are using AI and where the real governance gaps sit, before you commit a penny to training
• Tier A: General User Awareness — safe day-to-day AI use, data handling, prohibited and high-risk uses, verifying AI output before relying on it
• Tier B: Senior Manager & Compliance Officer — regulatory mapping, human oversight and Article 22, DPIAs, vendor risk, evidencing accountability, building a competency matrix
• Self-paced online training via LCMS, with certificate on completion
• Live, collaborative sessions via Teams
• In-person half-day and full-day training, delivered on-site

Why Firms Choose AISensa Academy

• The only training provider that diagnoses before it prescribes: a free, evidence-based assessment of actual AI usage, not a course built on guesswork or self-reported surveys
• A syllabus benchmarked against ISO 42001, the EU AI Act, and sector regulator guidance, not generic AI-skills content
• Built and delivered by the team building AISensa, a governed AI platform purpose-built for regulated professional services — this is practitioner knowledge grounded in real regulatory work, not generic AI training
• A senior manager track that produces an actual evidence trail, not just a certificate
• We train AI governance and compliance only — we don't dilute this with broad AI skills or productivity training

Our Mission

AISensa Academy is part of AISensa: the governed AI platform for organisations that need AI governance to be real: enforceable, evidenceable, and on the side of the people doing the work. Our training exists to build the human capability that makes that governance actually work.

Sean Glaze helps organizations build stronger teams and more effective leaders through facilitated team building programs, leadership development workshops, and DISC-based communication training that change how people work together long after the session ends.

For over 15 years I have worked with thousands of team leaders to improve communication, collaboration, and accountability at organizations including John Deere, the CDC, Coca-Cola, Emory University, Cisco, PMI, Southern Company, CBRE, Equifax, Subway, and PEI.

Most teams I work with are strong individually but struggle to perform as a unit. Meetings run long, communication breaks down across roles, accountability slips, and good people pull in different directions. My programs are built to fix that. Every session is designed around one standard: if nothing changes for participants on Monday morning, it did not work.

I focus on four areas that shape whether a team culture holds together:

-Developing more effective leaders. Practical leadership skills that managers can apply immediately, drawn from my book What Effective Leaders Do.

-Improving team communication and collaboration. Experiential team building that surfaces how people actually work together, then builds the trust and clarity that better performance depends on.

-Building accountability and coachability. Helping team members give and receive feedback, stay open to growth, and hold each other to shared standards.

-Creating a culture of rapid teamwork. Getting new and existing teams aligned faster around goals, roles, and expectations.

Programs are tailored to your group and available as half-day and full-day facilitated team building events, leadership development workshops, DISC personality style assessments and applications, and one-on-one leadership coaching. I also deliver interactive workplace culture keynotes for conferences and larger staff development events, so I can lead both a main-stage session and hands-on team training on the same day.

Participants leave with tools they can use right away for better communication, stronger accountability, and more productive working relationships. As a former coach and educator, I use real stories and structured group activities to create awareness that sticks and behavior that changes.

Training and facilitation areas:

Facilitated team building events that build trust and collaboration

Leadership development workshops for new and experienced managers

DISC personality style assessments and communication training

Accountability, feedback, and coachability skill building

Workplace culture keynotes for conferences and staff development days

One-on-one leadership coaching

Jube is an open-source AML and fraud detection platform purpose-built for real-time transaction monitoring, case management, and regulatory compliance.

We partner with System Integrators and Professional Services practices to transform financial crime technology from a cost center into a strategic differentiator for their banking clients. Given the nature of the work, testimonials are not listed here, but it would be a pleasure to introduce reference sites upon enquiry.

System Integrators serving the banking sector face an impossible trilemma. Their clients demand bulletproof AML and fraud detection—compliance is non-negotiable given escalating fines and intensifying regulatory scrutiny. Yet dominant proprietary vendors impose eye-watering license fees, severe vendor lock-in, and closed architectures incompatible with data sovereignty requirements. Meanwhile, System Integrators themselves struggle to differentiate in a commoditized market, competing solely on implementation costs and eroding margins.

The core issue isn't technology—it's misaligned economics and missing capabilities. Banks need regulatory assurance without vendor dependency. System Integrators need defensible competitive advantages that justify premium positioning. Both need architectural sovereignty and freedom from the pricing tyranny embedded in legacy platforms.

Jube delivers regulation-first, open-source infrastructure that solves this disconnect. We provide the compliance certainty banks require while creating genuine centers of excellence for System Integrators. Our platform enables customization, IP differentiation, and the architectural sovereignty modern financial institutions demand. System Integrators gain full source code access, eliminate prohibitive licensing costs, and secure control over infrastructure and data—transforming from implementation vendors into strategic compliance partners with sustainable competitive advantage.
