preK-12 School and District Leaders with a basic knowledge of AI - teams are encouraged
This course explores the fast-changing landscape of AI in preK-12 education, with a focus on strategic leadership applications. Designed for educators with a basic understanding of AI tools, it emphasizes practical, advanced uses—not an introduction to AI.
Participants will explore how emerging AI tools—available to nearly all—can:
- Improve operational efficiency
- Support data-informed decision-making
- Enhance creative problem-solving and reflective practice
The course also emphasizes ethical use, communication strategies, and maintaining the human-centered role of the school leader. Expect hands-on exploration, scenario-based discussion, and actionable strategies to integrate AI responsibly in leadership workflows.
A Google Workspace for Education Account is recommended for full participation.

Special Education IEP Team Chairs InstituteSpecial Education IEP Team Chairs Institute
Create a climate of trust while navigating key obligations.
The team chair is integral in ensuring that the needs of all parties are met. This requires a skillful balancing of curriculum, instruction, student services and family engagement, along with strong relationships with colleagues, students and families. Unfortunately, this work can become conflict-driven, complex and isolating with few occasions for turning experience into wisdom. In a process where optimism, positivity, and belief in the process is critical, you must hone your ability to read the room, set the tone, model and deal with the physical and emotional manifestations of stress.
In this program, you will learn to lead meetings where everyone recognizes that they have shared goals, how to navigate the demands from each stakeholder, and to leverage your daily interactions into opportunities for growth.
