What does AI literacy training cost?
Updated: 2026-09
AI literacy training costs different amounts depending on the number of roles, the degree of tailoring and the evidence required. The main cost driver is not delivery but adapting the content to the organisation’s actual use cases.
A standard course on artificial intelligence is cheap to obtain. It generally does not meet the obligation under Article 4 of the EU AI Act, because that requires a sufficient level of AI literacy for staff’s concrete tasks — not general understanding.
The cost difference therefore lies in the tailoring. Training that relates to the systems actually deployed and the real oversight duties requires preparatory work. That preparation is exactly what separates a met obligation from a documented attendance.
What drives the cost
Number of roles
Users, oversight staff and decision-makers need different content. Each additional role is its own tailoring.
Degree of adaptation
Training built on your own AI use cases requires preparation — and is the part that actually meets the obligation.
Number of participants and sites
Several groups or locations raise the delivery effort.
Evidence requirement
Documented attendance with evidence of competence is more effort than delivery alone — and usually the reason for the training.
Repeatability
Training that can be repeated and updated internally costs more to build and less over time.
How we price
- 01
Fixed price
Where the scope can be clearly bounded, we work to a binding fixed price. You know exactly what it costs before the project starts — no open-ended hourly billing, no surprises.
- 02
Engagement / retainer
For ongoing support — advisory, governance or continuous optimisation — we agree an engagement with a defined scope per month. Predictable cost, flexibly adjustable.
- 03
Time and materials against an estimate
Where the scope is not yet fully settled at the start, we work transparently against effort — with an estimate discussed in advance and regular cost control, so nothing runs away.
We deliberately publish no online prices: every case differs. After a short first conversation you receive a binding fixed price or clear frame.

Matching offers
AI Act literacy training
Article 4 of the EU AI Act requires a sufficient level of AI literacy among staff. This training meets that obligation practically and by role: the people who deploy and oversee AI understand what the systems do, where their limits lie, and when an output should be questioned.
Building AI governance
AI governance gives your handling of AI a repeatable structure: an AI policy, a risk inventory, clear roles and a lifecycle process — oriented to ISO/IEC 42001. The result is the organisational backbone that produces the records the AI Act requires, audit-ready and durably.
EU AI Act gap assessment
A gap assessment answers three questions: which AI systems do we use, how are they classified under the EU AI Act, and what is missing for conformity? The output is a prioritised action plan, with an eye on the 2 August 2026 enforcement window.
FAQ
Why is there no specific price on the website?
Because a serious price depends on the actual scope, and a number online would almost always be wrong — too high deters, too low leads to unpleasant surprises. After a short first conversation we give you a binding fixed price or a clear range.
How do I get to a binding fixed price?
Through a short, free first conversation in which we clarify scope, goals and constraints. On that basis you receive a specific, binding price — with no hidden costs.
Is a general AI course enough for Article 4?
Generally not. What is required is competence relating to the systems deployed and the concrete tasks — a general introduction rarely covers that.
How often must the training be repeated?
The AI Act names no fixed interval. Since systems and uses change, regular refreshing is sensible — which makes a repeatable format more economical than a one-off.
