☀️ USBE / Google For Education Summer 2026 Training Series
USBE and Google for Education have developed a training series this summer for our Utah K12 and Higher Education groups. This training is free and open to any educator in Utah. Google is targeting three groups for this training series:
- Educational leadership from Superintendents to Principals to Deans and Presidents. This program is a fully virtual program that shares information on policy, rollout, and developing supports for AI within your organization.
- English Language Arts, Math, and Science secondary educators or introductory college course instructors/professors. This program is an 8-week course with 7 virtual weeks and one two-day session in person to develop a best practices program around AI. This program is limited to 200 people.
- Third, IT professionals either in K12 or Higher Education. This program will include time to ask questions with the Google Engineering team.
You can use this site to register for the training, but more resources will be added in the coming weeks: https://sites.google.com/schools.utah.gov/aitraining2026/home
