Course description
The Digital Inclusion team, supported by the Artificial Intelligence Working Group, has developed AI Aware training for Department for Education, Children and Young People (DECYP) staff. The training will be updated periodically to address changes in Artificial Intelligence (AI) software and applications, such as changes to DECYP licence agreements or updates to vendor features and functions.
The training provides information about AI, including:
- how to use AI safely and ethically within DECYP guidelines
- how to create high‑quality prompts to support planning and teaching
- how to apply and refine AI‑assisted lesson planning to strengthen learning and assessment
This training is designed for educators who are beginning their journey with AI and want to build confidence using a tool within a specific teaching and learning context. It takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes to complete.
This training does not cover advanced AI tools and is not a comprehensive user guide for the tool described.
This module will be available from the 11th of May 2026.
