Michael MacLennan

These interactive, practical AI training sessions from Big Fish Training are led by Michael MacLennan, founder of Comms With AI, who has over 15 years of strategic communications experience and a Machine Learning & AI certification from Imperial College,. Crucially, he's actively building and testing AI tools for comms teams right now. These courses are highly practical, with hands-on demonstrations of what really works for PR & comms teams and plenty of opportunity to ask questions and get involved.
