Local Tech Specialist Launches ‘Fear-Free’ Canva and AI Workshops to Upskill North East Business Owners

XPOH, a leading regional specialist in digital empowerment, has announced a new series of hands-on workshops designed to bridge the digital skills gap for business owners in Aberdeen and Dundee.

The Canva & AI Half-Day Workshops aim to dismantle the technical barriers often faced by small to medium enterprise (SME) leaders. By combining creative design with the latest in Artificial Intelligence productivity tools, the sessions provide practical, jargon-free training for those who feel overwhelmed by the rapid pace of digital marketing.

Empowering the ‘Tech-Averse’

While many digital workshops cater to those already proficient in tech, XPOH founder Sofia Middleton identifies a critical need for supportive, entry-level professional development.

"Many business owners in the North East find the constant evolution of social media and AI intimidating," says Sofia, founder of XPOH. "These workshops aren't just about making pretty graphics; they are about giving business owners their time back. We’re turning ‘tech loathing’ into a competitive advantage through confidence and streamlined workflows, they like the idea of upskilling, being able to be more efficient with their marketing and social media marketing but lack the tools and techniques to make it happen".

With over 20 years as an expert strategic marketer, Sofia’s workshops are known for being people-led, hands-on and most of all, friendly.

It’s a new year and a great time to start afresh. This Canva and AI workshop will allow business owners to significantly reduce the time they spend on their marketing but to massively increase their marketing and social media impact.

Event Details

The workshops will be held at two key business hubs to ensure accessibility for the regional business community:

Dundee: Tuesday, 20 January – Dundee & Angus Chamber of Commerce. Tickets: https://shorturl.at/8LFk9


Aberdeen: Tuesday, 27 January – Moxy Hotel, Aberdeen Airport. Tickets: https://shorturl.at 
 

Strategic Learning Outcomes

Unlike high-level webinars, these sessions are strictly limited in capacity to ensure one-on-one support. Attendees will walk away with:

Operational Efficiency: Leveraging AI to automate content creation and reduce marketing hours.
Brand Consistency: Mastering Canva.com to produce professional-grade assets in-house.
Strategic Confidence: Overcoming the "fear factor" of new technology to stay relevant in a digital-first economy.
 

Tickets are available now via Eventbrite. For more information on XPOH visit https://xpoh.co.uk/
