AI is rapidly shaping education and the careers of tomorrow. This one-day workshop is designed specifically for high school students like you, providing hands-on skills to use AI tools effectively, ethically, and confidently to support your school learning and future pathways.
This workshop focuses on using AI as a powerful learning aid, not as a shortcut for assignments. You will explore how to responsibly leverage AI to deepen your understanding and improve your academic skills.
Please Note
