It’s always great hearing how much difference the right trainer can make. Lachlan’s calm, practical style and knack for explaining things in a way that actually sticks clearly hit the mark in this Excel session.

If your team could use a confidence boost or a refresher in the tools they use every day, our Excel courses are a solid place to start.

ACE Training vouchers are a handy way to sort your budget early and still give your team plenty of freedom. You lock in the funds upfront, and they can pick the training that fits around their workload and timing. It keeps things simple, gives people real choice, and makes it easier to build skills without the usual juggling.

How’s AI feeling for you lately? Most people build confidence in stages — starting with quick experiments, then moving into more purposeful prompting, and eventually using AI as a natural part of how they (and their organisation) get work done.

Check out the five stages below and see where you sit today. You might be closer to the next step than you think.

And if you want support moving forward, ACE Training can help you build that capability with clarity and confidence.

Getting better results from Copilot isn’t just about what you ask — it’s about how clearly you frame the work. When you give Copilot the purpose, the audience, and the outcome you’re aiming for, it can cut straight to the good stuff. Clear prompts mean faster drafts, fewer rewrites, and more time back for the work that actually needs you.

In NZ organisations where pace and clarity matter, specific prompting is great practice.

Many organisations are still trying to understand exactly where AI delivers genuine value. The good news is that Microsoft 365 Copilot isn't about replacing people or creating complex new processes. Instead, it helps employees work more efficiently within the tools they already use every day.

From Outlook and Teams through to Excel, Word, and PowerPoint, Copilot can reduce time spent on repetitive tasks and allow teams to focus on higher-value work such as strategy, creativity, problem-solving, and customer engagement.

We've looked at 5 simple, practical ways you can use Copilot to streamline your workflows. Check them out on our latest insights article here: https://ace.co.nz/insights/copilotwith365

We love getting customer feedback like this. Sarah has a knack for making Excel feel less intimidating and more doable, and it shows in every session.

For us, it’s not just about covering the content, it’s about helping people genuinely understand it and feel confident to apply it.

Thanks for delivering another solid session Sarah!

Your employees are already using AI. So do they really need AI training? Probably more than you think.

Knowing how to ask Copilot or ChatGPT to write an email is one thing. Knowing what's even possible with AI, when to use it, how to get better results, how to check what it produces and what information shouldn't be entered into it is another.

And as AI becomes a normal part of everyday work, the gap between using AI and using it well is becoming more important. So what AI skills do employees actually need? And should everyone be learning the same things?

We’ve looked at why AI training still matters, even when your people are already using ChatGPT and Copilot.

When people have the skills they need to succeed, confidence follows.

Whether it's mastering a new technology, strengthening leadership capability, or gaining a recognised certification, the right training helps individuals approach their work with greater clarity and certainty. Instead of second-guessing decisions or relying on trial and error, they can apply proven knowledge and best practices with confidence.

That confidence has a direct impact on productivity. Individuals work more effectively, teams collaborate more efficiently, and organisations are better equipped to adapt to changing business demands.

We focus on building practical, job-ready capability through instructor-led training that helps people develop skills they can apply immediately in the workplace, creating benefits for both the individual and the organisation.
