AI Professional Development for Every Educator

ConnectED makes every faculty member, student, and K-12 educator AI-capable, data-capable, and ethics-capable — for free. From the Morgridge College of Education to Denver-area classrooms and beyond.

Three Competency Pillars

Every module maps to one or more of these core competencies

AI-Capable

Use AI tools effectively in your professional practice — from prompt engineering to workflow automation.

Data-Capable

Reason with evidence, interpret data, and make data-informed decisions in education contexts.

Ethics-Capable

Identify ethical implications and govern AI use responsibly — from bias to privacy to equity.

Human Agency First

ConnectED doesn't just teach you about AI — it challenges you to think critically, make judgments, and keep the human in the driver's seat.
