24 short online courses teach staff to use AI tools safely at work

Capytech, an e-learning company in Cambridge, England, has launched 24 short online courses that teach staff how to use ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Claude and Gemini safely at work. Each course takes about 20 minutes. The company says it checks every course each week, so what people learn matches the tools as they look today.

Why it matters

In many workplaces, AI tools arrived before any training did. People draft emails, summarize meetings and research topics, often working it out as they go. Three questions tend to go unanswered: what is safe to paste in, how to get a useful answer the first time, and how to spot an answer that sounds right but is wrong.

How the courses work

• Each course is interactive and takes about 20 minutes.
• It ends with a short quiz.
• People who pass get a Capytech certificate of completion.
• Each course shows the date it was last checked.

Capytech says it checks the courses against the newest releases of the four tools, and against the law and guidance. When a feature is renamed, a button moves or a rule changes, the course is usually updated within the week. Updates during the 12 months of access that come with a purchase cost nothing extra.

What it costs

• After the free course, each course costs £9 including VAT.
• All Access, all 24 courses for 12 months plus any new ones, is £49.
• The launch price for All Access is £29 until 31 January 2027.

For organizations, Capytech offers the Capytech AI Academy. Every staff member starts with an AI Licence on safe and secure use, then moves to practical skills, tool guides and a role track. Managers can see progress across the organization. Teams of 5 or more pay £29 a person for All Access at launch, then £39. Groups of 50 or more can ask for a quote.

What is not known

The details come from Capytech's own announcement. No independent review is mentioned, and there are no figures on how many people have taken the courses. The announcement also does not list what each of the 24 courses covers, beyond safe and secure use as the starting point. Jason Satterly, Capytech's Managing Director, said the courses give people habits they can use the same afternoon.
