Appreciating Church AI courses
We currently offer two training events: A taste of AI (below) and Developing your AI practice. These events are currently organised by partner churches according to their needs, and their practice is to open these to participants from other organisations.
Dates will be advertised here and on Facebook and Twitter as soon as they become known. If you would like to register your interest to take part in the next training event please contact us..
