BCC AI Academy
BCC Ai academy: powered by pair
A Practical AI Course Built for UK Businesses. No jargon, just results.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) isn’t just for tech giants or sci-fi headlines anymore. It’s quickly becoming a practical tool that businesses of all sizes can use to work smarter, make better decisions, and stay ahead of the competition.
But for many small and medium-sized businesses, including Chambers of Commerce, knowing where to start with AI can feel overwhelming. That first step is often the hardest — and that’s exactly where we can help.

Guiding Businesses into the AI Era
This first-of-its-kind initiative from the British Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with AI adoption platform, Pair, is designed to help Chamber teams confidently and practically integrate AI into their daily work. No jargon. Pair uses role-relevant capability-building that sticks and makes a difference right away.
The first cohort of the BCC AI Academy is dedicated to Chambers across the UK. By experiencing the programme first-hand, participating Chambers will see the immediate value and practical application of AI for themselves – building the confidence and insight needed to introduce the programme to their local business communities.
The programme combines practical, hands-on exercises with a behaviour-first learning model. It doesn’t ask participants to pause their operations to learn – it builds AI skills directly relevant to what they already do, helping teams learn by doing and apply AI where it has the biggest impact.
The BCC AI Academy is open for registrations, with the first cohort launching with a live webinar on Friday 11 July.
For Chambers eager to lead their regions into the AI-enabled economy, this is the opportunity to be at the forefront.
AI isn’t the future. It’s you and your members’ next competitive advantage.
