As data volume, quality, and complexity increase, a fresh approach to analysis is essential; one that can keep pace with the scale and speed of incoming data.
In this one-day course, discover how to use AI-powered workspace tools, such as Google Workspace with Gemini or Microsoft Copilot, to reduce the time spent on market analysis and insight generation.
You’ll learn how to read, process, analyse and act on data more effectively using AI. We’ll move beyond generic best practice to explore the specific features and functions of tools like Gemini and Copilot for analytical tasks where accuracy, reliability and traceable logic matter. You’ll also develop the human skills needed to validate insights and apply judgement before and after creation.
Following the data lifecycle end to end, you’ll learn which parts of analysis are being commoditised by AI, where human expertise still matters most, and how to combine both for better outcomes. You’ll also explore how AI can support desk research, data preparation, advanced analysis, and clearer data-driven storytelling in docs and presentations.
This course is available as a private course, delivered virtually, at your offices, ours, or any location that works best for you, whether in the UK or internationally.
