AI LITERACY TRAINING FOR TEACHERS

States are mandating it. Teachers need to understand it. We can help.

Your teachers didn't sign up to become AI experts—and they don't have to be.

They need a framework for thinking critically about AI, classroom-ready lessons, and the confidence to lead the discussion.

Our AI Literacy Professional Development (PD) gives them all three (includes a full year of curriculum, because PD shouldn't end when the workshop does). ​

 

Built for educators in grades 4–12. Whether it's an in-service day, a half-day workshop, or a district-wide rollout, we tailor it to your school.

Option 1

AI Literacy Foundations

A practical framework for understanding AI and guiding students toward responsible use—for teachers who are just getting started.

Format: 1- to 3-hours virtual or in-person

Best for: Staff meetings, in-service days, schools beginning AI literacy

What's included:

  • How to teach AI literacy without being an AI expert

  • How to meet AI literacy mandates through critical thinking, not tool training

  • Strategies teachers can use Monday morning

  • A live classroom demo of student lessons


Bonus: One-year curriculum subscription.

Option 2

Building a Thinking Culture Around AI

A full day that moves your school from AI awareness to implementation—teachers, curriculum leaders, and administrators building one shared framework. 

Format: Full day (about 6 hours), virtual, in-person, or hybrid

Best for: District-wide rollouts, staff development days, schools ready to implement

What's included:

  • A shared framework your whole school can rally around

  • A roadmap for embedding AI literacy across the grades

  • Strategies for teaching AI bias, accuracy, ethics, privacy, and agency

  • A live classroom demo of student lessons

  • Time for planning and questions


Bonus: One-year curriculum subscription.​

Option 3

Custom AI Literacy Professional Development

Every school is at a different stage. We build the training around your grade levels, your priorities, and the implementation problems you're actually facing.

Format: Flexible 

Best for: Districts with specific requirements, multi-grade rollouts, schools wanting ongoing support

What's included:

  • Content built around your school's priorities

  • Grade-level customization 

  • Virtual, in-person, or hybrid

  • Optional follow-up: facilitation coaching, staff check-ins, additional sessions

​​

Bonus: Customized curriculum subscription built to fit

Three AI Literacy Training Options for Schools

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT THAT'S DIFFERENT

Classroom-tested expertise

We've taught these lessons. We know where teachers get stuck and which discussions actually work.

 
Critical thinking front and center

We don't teach teachers how to use ChatGPT. We teach them how to help students think about AI's impact—bias, ethics, accuracy, agency, privacy, environmental cost. The tools will change. These fundamentals won't.

Turnkey curriculum included

Professional development shouldn't end when the workshop does. We leave you with a full year of classroom-ready lessons to teach the next day!
