The Challenge

AI Adoption Is Accelerating.
Workforce Readiness Isn’t

AI is being rapidly integrated into every function, from operations and compliance to marketing and product design, yet most organisations cannot confidently answer:

Leadership Teams Are Asking:

How equipped are our teams to leverage AI in daily decision-making?

Where are the capability gaps that limit adoption and performance?

Are our upskilling programmes actually improving readiness, or just raising awareness?

86%

of enterprises plan to expand AI investment, but fewer than 25% measure capability.

70%

of AI projects fail to scale due to workforce readiness gaps.

Without visibility, even the best-funded AI initiatives remain vulnerable and even the best AI Strategies remain blind. Training investments miss their mark. Risk remains invisible. Transformation slows without explanation.

The solution

The Infrastructure for Measuring
AI Readiness at Scale.

The AI Capability Diagnostic is a structured, research-backed assessment that measures and benchmarks AI capability across ten critical domains. It enables individuals and organisations to understand where they currently stand while giving leaders clear, evidence-based visibility into readiness, risk, and opportunity. More than a test, it is a strategic tool that evaluates capability across three dimensions: Knowledge, Skills, and Behaviours, providing a clear view of how AI is understood and applied. Whether for an individual, team, or enterprise, the diagnostic reveals your current state of capability and the direction for future growth.

The 4Ds of the Financial System

Navigating the New Era of Financial Innovation

A new financial system is emerging

10 years ago, cash was used 4x more than debit cards in the UK. Today, it’s the opposite. 10 years ago, UPI didn’t exist in India. Today, 10 billion UPI transactions take place every month.

This course offers the latest insights into these developments, making it a must-take for finance professionals, policy-makers, and entrepreneurs or anyone interested in the evolving landscape of finance and technology.
