Why TrainAI exists

TrainAI was built by Heather Murray – BBC and UK government AI advisor, regularly featured in Forbes, and founder of AI for Non-Techies.

After years of delivering AI training to organisations like Johnson & Johnson, GSK, Toyota, and the House of Lords, she kept hearing the same thing from other trainers: “I know AI matters, but I don’t have the time or the confidence to build courses from scratch.”
