Partners · for training companies and learning providers
Your customers are asking for AI training. Give them a course you’d put your name to.
Most of what’s out there is a short awareness video, a vendor’s product tour, or a course that went out of date with last year’s tools. The AI Stairway™ is practical, evidence-based and kept current, written by people who build AI systems for a living. Offer it under your brand alongside ours, at partner prices.
We reply within 24 hours.
The problem
“Do you do AI training?” is the question you’ll hear most this year
Your customers’ staff were handed AI tools before anyone showed them how to use them safely. Managers want to know what’s allowed, what needs checking and what to do next. If you don’t have an answer, they’ll find one elsewhere, and writing a credible course yourself means keeping up with tools that change every few months.
The AI Stairway™ fills the gap without competing with what you already teach. It sits alongside compliance, management, health and safety or sector training, because every role now meets AI somewhere.

What partners get
Everything you need to sell it and run it
Partner pricing
Discounts beyond our team prices, set by the number of learners you can reach and what we agree to do together to market the course.
Your brand alongside ours
A partner edition that carries your brand next to Scorchsoft’s, including on the certificate. Scorchsoft’s name and the author credits always stay.
Ready for your platform
One SCORM 1.2 package per module (SCORM 2004 on request), with setup notes. Or your learners use this site and you see their progress.
Sales material
A partner pack, the trailer and a preview of Module 1, so you can sell it with confidence and show customers exactly what they get.
Updates included
The content is reviewed every six months. Updated packages keep the same identifiers, so you re-upload and learners keep their place.
Routes for your sectors
Two series, single modules and shorter routes, such as Leading AI for managers and Safe AI in Care for care staff.
How partner terms work
The bigger the reach, the better the terms
We’re happy to give partners bigger discounts and co-branding. In return we ask for the things that make the course succeed for both of us. We agree them together, in plain terms, before anything is signed.
What we ask of partners
- Marketing the course to your customers: a launch to your list, a place in your catalogue, and an agreed rhythm after that
- Access to a realistic number of learners, so the discount reflects real volume
- Telling us what your learners and customers say, so the course keeps getting better
Who it suits
Written broad on purpose
The course isn’t only for desk workers. Its examples follow frontline and office colleagues, it runs on a phone, and it works in whichever AI tool a learner already has. Leaders get their own series and route.
Training companies
Add a credible AI course to your catalogue without writing one, and answer the question your customers keep asking.
Learning platforms and marketplaces
A marketplace edition keeps the author credits and removes promotional links and offers, for stores that forbid them.
Sector and membership bodies
Offer your members training that fits their work, from care and frontline teams to office staff and leaders.

Questions partners ask
What discount do partners get?
It depends on how many learners you can reach and the marketing we agree to do together, so we set it with each partner rather than publishing one figure. The more of the course’s success we build together, the better the terms.
Can we put our own brand on it?
Yes. The partner edition carries your brand alongside Scorchsoft’s, on screen and on the certificate. Scorchsoft’s name, the design and the author credits always stay, so the course keeps its identity wherever it’s sold.
Will it work in our learning platform?
Each module is a single, self-contained SCORM 1.2 package (SCORM 2004 on request), built for TalentLMS and any platform that takes SCORM 1.2. Films, captions and fonts are inside the package, so it suits locked-down networks. It reports completion and score to your platform.
Who is it for? Our customers aren’t all office workers.
It’s written to be broad on purpose. The examples follow invented colleagues from care coordination, payroll and client services, every exercise works on a phone in whatever AI tool the learner already uses, and the Advanced series and the Leading AI route are for managers and leaders.
How do you keep it up to date?
Every module is reviewed every six months. Anything an AI tool can or can’t do is shown as a dated snapshot, every figure carries its source and an “as of” date, and products are only named on dated example cards, so the teaching doesn’t go out of date when the tools change.
Can we try it first?
Yes. Take the free introductory module yourself, and we’ll share a preview of Module 1 and the partner pack when we talk.
