Training Designed for District Teams from 2-5 Participants

The Building Capacity for Generative AI in K-12 Education project equips school systems with the tools, training, and support needed to approach generative AI thoughtfully and strategically. Designed to serve districts of all sizes and contexts, the initiative helps education leaders evaluate their readiness across seven key areas—including leadership, operations, data, technology, security, legal considerations, and academic AI literacy. Participants gain guidance in assessing current capabilities, identifying future goals, and taking actionable steps toward implementation—all grounded in the CoSN/CGCS K-12 Gen AI Maturity Tool.
