Written by the company
Adept Training Ltd helps accountants and finance professionals to use artificial intelligence effectively and to develop the human skills that AI will not replace. Adept Training was founded by David Culley in 2018. David designs and delivers every course himself, so when you book Adept, you get David. David is a Fellow of ACCA and of the Institute of Leadership. He has worked in professional education since 2006, following a finance career that included senior roles at John Lewis and Axa and leadership positions in SMEs and start-ups. He now works with AICPA & CIMA, ICAEW and ACCA, across government and the public sector, and with commercial clients including BAE Systems, KP Snacks, Legal & General and Shell. David has built a comprehensive portfolio of AI courses designed specifically for accountants and finance professionals, covering everything from first principles through to implementation, regulation and ethics. Each course is founded on real-life case studies and revised continually as the technology evolves. The AI training sits alongside a second portfolio of courses that develop the skills AI is not going to replace. David's report, "People Will Be the Next Big Thing," argues that, as machines deliver more of the analysis, it falls to accountants and finance professionals to provide the judgement, communication and leadership that turn insight into action. David is known for his practical and highly interactive approach. Delegates on his courses are encouraged to explore new ideas and apply them to real workplace challenges so that they leave with actions they can implement immediately.

Excellent seminars!
David created clear, and engaging presentations, and really made the information feel tangible and related it back to every day life. He took a complex topic and made it really easy to understand. His sessions were really interesting and insightful and I feel I learnt a lot.

Insightful three part training
David gave a series of three very insightful presentations of AI covering the history of AI, it's uses and possible risks associated with it. I really enjoyed the training and have gained a deeper understand of the background of AI as well as ethics and governance.
