The Software Skills Series is a programme of practical learning sessions designed to help NHS finance professionals develop their digital skills and confidence using Microsoft technologies. Whether you’re looking to improve existing processes, explore the potential of AI, or learn from others across the NHS finance community, these sessions provide an opportunity to build knowledge, develop practical skills and apply learning in your own organisation.
The series follows a progressive learning pathway, helping participants move from understanding and improving processes, to creating AI-powered solutions, and accessing ongoing support through a community of peers.
