Chartered Institute of Public Relations
Strategic AI adoption for PR teams is a paid advanced course from Chartered Institute of Public Relations, online or in person. It costs £385 for members and £550 for non-members. Next: 10 Nov 2026.
Chartered Institute of Public Relations doesn't say how long it takes or whether there is a certificate.
Suits PR team leaders and agency partners who already use AI and must decide how their function adopts it. What stands out is the leadership angle: roadmap, governance and resourcing rather than tool training. The main caveat is £550 + VAT for non-members (£385 + VAT for members), and no in-person price is shown for the London dates. A free alternative for leaders is AI Leadership from OpenAI Academy, which is not PR-specific.
One-day CIPR session for senior PR and communications leaders on adopting AI across their function. Covers benchmarking current AI use, how AI changes team shape, building a strategic AI roadmap with governance and resourcing, and responsible adoption, through facilitated discussion and scenario planning.
