CompTIA AI Training for High School Teachers
Artificial Intelligence is transforming every industry. To prepare high school students for the future, educators must first master the tools themselves. This collaboration between NAAIC and CompTIA offers a cohort of high school teachers with free access and expert-led training to earn two recognized credentials:
- CompTIA AI Essentials
- CompTIA AI Prompting Essentials
Through this guided experience, completers will be able to demonstrate mastery of AI concepts and earn a Competency Certificate, all while learning how to embed AI concepts into their existing courseware.
The Learning Experience
The training will be self-paced, 100% online, with support from a CompTIA certified instructor who will provide a guided, hands-on session covering:
- CertMaster Platform Walkthrough: Get a full tour of the learning environment to maximize your study time.
- Interactive Labs: Move beyond theory with a deep dive into AI Skills Labs and how to apply AI skills in real-world contexts.
- Pedagogical Strategies: Learn specific methods for teaching AI concepts to high school students.
- Workflow Optimization: Discover how to use AI tools to automate grading, lesson planning, and administrative tasks.
