“No One Showed Us How to Use It”: The AI Training Gap
AI is already part of clinical practice. But while the tools have moved fast, training hasn’t kept up. Join clinicians and educators from across primary and secondary care to explore what safe, competent AI use actually looks like, how AI is changing the way clinicians learn, and what we need to build now to prepare the workforce for what comes next.

What you’ll take away
By the end of the session, you'll have explored:
What safe, competent day-to-day use of AI in clinical practice actually looks like, including where a tool's judgement stops and the clinician's must begin
How AI risk and limitations differ across documentation, triage, decision support, and general-purpose chatbot use
What good AI onboarding should cover in a clinician's first week, and why AI training needs to evolve continuously rather than be a one-off exercise
How AI is changing the way clinicians and trainees develop and maintain clinical skills, and which elements of clinical reasoning should remain deliberately practised
Practical approaches supervisors can use to adapt training, including staged access to AI tools, tool-free practice periods, and having trainees reason aloud before seeing AI-generated output
Who should own the AI training gap - clinicians, supervisors, employers, professional bodies, educators, or technology providers - and what the system needs to build now to support the future workforce
Who should attend
Open to trainers, trainees and anyone exploring, implementing or scaling AI across the full spectrum of care. Whether you’re at the beginning of your AI journey or already embedding solutions into clinical practice, this is an opportunity to learn and share experiences.
