Start with a course from an accountancy body: it uses finance examples, covers checking AI output, and members pay less.
If you only do one, take ACCA's Certificate in Artificial Intelligence for Finance Professionals: ten self-paced modules and a one-hour online assessment, ending in a certificate and digital badge. ACCA members pay £230; everyone else pays £310. To start free, Microsoft's Work smarter with Copilot prompts for finance professionals shows Copilot on finance tasks.
