About Taught by Humans

Our vision is to empower everyone with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to thrive in the future of work.

We're on a mission to deliver flexible, engaging learning experiences in essential skills, starting with AI and data. Our approach makes these tools practical and accessible, helping both individuals and businesses use them effectively in their day-to-day work.

We stand against the scaremongering around AI replacing jobs. Instead, we show people how to use AI as a powerful tool that complements their existing strengths, allowing teams to focus on what matters most.
