Introducing CITE’s AI Academy
Module 1 – Everything K-12 Educators Need to Know About Generative AI

Part of CITE’s AI Academy for Principals, Assistant Principals, and Communities, this is the first in a six-part professional development series designed to equip all faculty in your community with the knowledge, tools, and strategies to integrate AI effectively, ethically, and sustainably.
