As AI technology rapidly integrates into our everyday lives, the education and training sectors are facing a critical question: Should learners be prevented from using AI tools – and is it even possible to enforce such a rule? At Aptem, we’ve been exploring the reality of AI use in learning, from the risks of shadow AI to the importance of transparent and professional integration.

AI tools are transforming apprenticeship delivery, but without proper oversight, they also introduce serious risks. Many providers are already seeing the rise of shadow AI usage – unapproved AI tools being used within organisations, often without governance or compliance checks. This can jeopardise data security, breach UK GDPR, and compromise academic integrity.
