Empowering Teacher Leaders to Model, Communicate, and Scale Responsible AI Use

A four-part professional learning experience that helps educators explore, apply, and lead with AI, grounded in ethics, creativity, and confidence.

Let's Talk!

Why Education Leaders Matter

Teacher leaders are bridges between classrooms, systems, and ideas. The Teacher Leadership Accelerator helps them build AI fluency and the communication skills to guide others. Participants learn not only how to use AI well, but how to talk about it with clarity, care, and influence, so responsible innovation takes root across their schools.
