Are you a school or district leader tasked with figuring out AI policy, AI curriculum, AI training, and ALL THE AI THINGS?

Join us in this insightful interview with Ryan Findley from Evergreen AI as we explore the critical topic of “Strategic AI Planning for School Leaders and Districts.”

We know that AI is here to stay, but that leaves schools with a big question (or, as Ryan calls it–a wicked problem) on how to manage, set policies, train, and prepare for AI in our classrooms and AI everywhere!

The good news is that Evergreen Education is here to help school leaders navigate the murky waters of AI and develop long-term plans and goals.

Evergreen Education’s AI Academy is now available to help school leaders and districts tackle these important tasks! (And Shake Up Learning readers get a HUGE discount!)
