We teach it. We build it. We stay.
Practical AI and digital productivity help for organizations and professionals across Nigeria and beyond, in person or online, built on your real work and backed until it holds.
What we do, in one paragraph
Hillward Consulting helps professionals and organizations work smarter with AI and digital tools. We teach teams and individuals to use AI on their real tasks, we build the workflows and systems that remove repetitive work, and we stay to support them. Everything is explained in plain English and built around your actual job, your tools and your budget.
Every engagement follows the same shape. We listen first, we agree a clear written plan, we deliver what we promised on the date we promised it, and we stay to make sure the change holds. If a date is ever at risk, you hear from us early.
Team training
Hands-on AI workshops for organizations, in person wherever you are or online.
Team training is for organizations whose staff spend too many hours on writing, reporting, research and admin. Your people practise on their own emails, reports and proposals, so they leave with finished work and skills they can repeat on Monday morning. We tailor the content to your team’s roles after a short survey, and we mix and match from the modules below.
Working smarter with AI
The mindset: AI as a thinking partner, where it fits in your day, and where it does not belong.
Prompting that works
How to ask AI for what you actually need, with reusable prompt templates for your role.
Writing faster
Emails, proposals and reports with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot, in your own voice.
Research and reporting
Faster research, summarising long documents and turning data into a clear report.
Presentations
Building clear, polished decks quickly with Canva and AI.
Planning and organization
Calendars, tasks and reminders in Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, plus basic automation with Zapier.
Every training includes a handout to take home and a starter prompt library for your roles, and we offer follow-up support afterwards so the learning does not fade. We also teach what must stay out of AI tools, including private client information, in line with Nigerian data protection law. Ask about training →
1-on-1 coaching
Personal coaching for professionals who want to get faster and more confident.
Coaching is for the professional who does not need a classroom but does need a guide. Each session works on your own tasks and tools, such as the report due on Friday, the proposal you keep postponing or the inbox you dread. We build habits you can keep, a small library of prompts that fit your job, and the confidence to use AI without second-guessing every answer.
Sessions run online, or in person wherever you are. Many people start with a single session to see how it feels, then continue with a short series. Coaching suits managers, consultants, lawyers, teachers, finance and HR professionals, and solo operators running a one-person organization.
Done-for-you setup
We build the systems that make it stick, then stay to support them.
Some organizations do not want to learn the tools. They want the work to run. Done-for-you setup is for them. We work on your own accounts, so you own everything we build, and we document it so your team can use it without us.
Google Workspace setup
Gmail, Drive, Calendar, Classroom and Meet organized so that your team can find things, share safely and stop losing files.
Microsoft 365 setup
Outlook, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive set up and organized for your team, with sensible sharing rules and training on Copilot and other AI tools inside Microsoft 365.
Workflow automation
Forms, reminders, scheduling and reports that run on their own, using Zapier and the automations already built into your tools.
AI workflows and assistants
Repeatable tasks, such as drafting replies, summarising documents or preparing weekly briefs, set up so that AI does the first pass and a person approves it.
Ongoing support
A simple monthly arrangement to fix problems, tune what we built and add improvements as your needs change.
Also available
Supporting services, delivered with the same care.
WordPress websites
Clear, fast websites with search engine setup, contact forms, email signups and a privacy page. See our own site in the portfolio.
Canva design and presentations
Branded presentations, handouts and graphics that look professional and are easy for your team to edit afterwards.

Content planning, writing, graphics and scheduling, with your approval before anything is posted.

Tools we work with
We work across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, and with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Zapier, Canva and WordPress. We are not tied to any one company. We recommend what fits your work, your data rules and your budget, and we say so plainly when a free option is enough.
Who we serve
We serve businesses and organizations, churches, schools, NGOs and busy professionals across Nigeria and beyond. We do not publish prices on this page, because every engagement is different. We quote after we have listened, and you always receive the full plan in writing before work begins.

Questions people ask
Short, direct answers.
How long is a team training?
Anywhere from a half day to a full week, depending on your goals and your team’s starting point. We agree the length with you after we have listened, and we design the sessions around the real tasks your people do.
How many people can join a workshop?
We work best with groups of up to about 15 people per session, because everyone practises on their own work and gets personal attention. Larger teams can be split into groups or run over several sessions.
Do you train in person or online?
Both. Training and coaching are available in person and online, for teams and individuals across Nigeria and beyond. We choose the format with you based on your team, your venue and your internet reliability.
What do we receive after a training?
Participants leave with work they have actually done, a take-home handout and a starter prompt library for their roles. We also offer follow-up support so questions do not go unanswered once the training day is over.
What does done-for-you setup include?
It can include Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 setup, automation of repeated tasks, AI workflows and ongoing support. We agree the exact scope in a written plan before work begins, and we work on your own accounts so that you own everything we build.
Do you set up Microsoft 365 as well as Google Workspace?
Yes. Many organizations run on Microsoft 365, so we set up and organize Outlook email, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive, and we train your staff to use Copilot and other AI tools inside them. If you are choosing between the two, we will explain the differences in plain English.
Can you build or redesign our website?
Yes. We build WordPress websites, set them up for search engines, connect forms and email signups, and write the privacy page you need. See the portfolio for our own site as an example.
Do you manage social media?
Yes. We plan content, write posts, design graphics in Canva and schedule publishing, with your approval before anything goes live. Many organizations pair this with AI training so their own staff can continue it.
