The AI Skills Accelerator Academy for School Board Members

In today’s rapidly evolving educational landscape, artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as the new "R" in education, just as essential as reading, writing, and arithmetic. 

This intensive "boot camp-style" skills accelerator academy is designed specifically for school board members to gain a comprehensive understanding of how AI impacts every level of a school district—from classroom instruction and curriculum development to operations, decision-making, and student outcomes.

Participants explore the transformative role AI plays in driving innovation within education, while learning to develop proactive policies that anticipate future needs, rather than reactive regulations that fall behind technological advances. 

By moving toward a mindset of "assumption of use," this experience empowers board members to ensure that AI is responsibly and effectively integrated into school systems, creating a more adaptive, efficient, and forward-thinking educational environment.

Additionally, The AI Skills Accelerator Academy emphasizes the importance of approaching your community with empathy and understanding, especially when addressing historical concerns and resistance to AI. Many communities fear the replacement of human jobs with technology or have long-standing distrust in new systems. 

We provide strategies for building trust, engaging in open dialogues, and creating AI initiatives that uplift rather than alienate. This allows you to lead with compassion while ensuring that AI is introduced as a tool for empowerment, rather than a force of displacement.

Through interactive sessions, case studies, and expert-led discussions, you will leave with the tools to lead your district into the future, making AI a cornerstone of education strategy and policy. Join us in reshaping the future of education, where AI is not just a tool, but a fundamental part of the learning experience for students, educators, and administrators alike.
