Participants are shown how to question AI-generated answers, verify important information and maintain appropriate human control. The training does not provide accounting, tax, legal or regulatory advice.
Frequently asked questions
Do accountants need coding skills to use AI?
No. The training uses beginner-friendly tools that accept instructions in ordinary written language.
Will AI replace accountants?
AI can automate or accelerate parts of routine work, but professional judgement, accountability and client understanding remain human responsibilities.
Can confidential client information be uploaded to an AI tool?
Not automatically. The answer depends on the organisation's policies, contractual duties, legal obligations and the security settings of the chosen platform. Sensitive data should not be uploaded without appropriate approval.
