PACIFIC GROUP AI IS returning TO VANUATU
Foundational AI training for workplaces and global AI expertise. Built by the Pacific, for the Pacific.
WHO THIS IS FOR — important!
We work with businesses and organisations that want to upskill their teams on AI. This includes: Government departments → Corporate teams → Businesses with staff to train → NGOs and community organisations. We do not offer individual training for the general public or personal up-skilling. Our sessions are designed for workplace teams only.
Why we're RETURNING to vanuatu 🇻🇺
AI isn't just for big companies in Sydney or Singapore.
Pacific businesses face unique challenges - small teams, tight budgets, a hundred things on your plate at once. But those same challenges make AI even more valuable. Automation. Efficiency. Getting hours back every week and keeping operational costs down.
Pacific Group AI exists because the Pacific deserves access to these tools - taught by people who understand the context.
We've trained close to 300 professionals in 3 countries across the region. We've worked with government departments in Rarotonga and Aitutaki, global organisations like Red Cross, one of Fiji's largest events companies, national pension and provident funds from the Cook Islands and Vanuatu, wholesale partners, specialist teams, and more.
Now we're bringing that impact to Vanuatu again in May 2026.

Note: This is workplace training, not individual upskilling. If you're a sole trader or exploring AI for personal interest, book a free chat first and we'll point you in the right direction.
Stage 2: AI Blueprint — Not Sure Where AI Fits in Your Business? We'll Map It Out 🔍
You know AI is important and need it in your organisation. But where do you start? The answer: with an AI Blueprint. We'll assess your operations, identify the opportunities, and give you a clear plan for what to automate and where to start. No more guesswork, just quantified answers.
We have been running AI Blueprints throughout the Cook Islands, helping organisations identify as many as 43 opportunities for growth and efficiency.

→ Organisations looking to automate or streamline operations
→ Companies that want a clear AI roadmap built for them
What we do:
→ Deep dive into your business processes
