AI for Every Teacher

A 15-hour, 8-week online course for your whole staff. Every teacher learns to use AI safely to plan, differentiate, give feedback and save time, then goes deeper in a track for their grade level, English Learners or school leadership.

✓15 hours over 8 weeks✓4 core modules + 1 track✓Live and self-paced, online

Your teachers need more than a one-hour AI webinar

AI can save teachers hours every week and help them reach every student. Without training, it invents facts, misjudges student writing and puts student data at risk. This course builds the routines to use it well, practiced in each teacher’s own classroom.

42%

of U.S. teachers say they have had no training on using AI in the classroom.

EdWeek Research Center, 2026

61%

of essays by non-native English writers were flagged as AI-written by detectors, on average across seven tools.

U.S. public school students is an English Learner, so many teachers have some. Every core module shows how to adapt for them.

NCES, Condition of Education, 2024

Five things every teacher can do by week 8

Every outcome is practiced with the teacher’s own students, not just discussed.

Use AI safely

Plan and differentiate

Plan from your standards and adapt any lesson for different readiness levels, readers and English Learners.

Give better feedback

Draft feedback against your own criteria, with the teacher making every call.

Guide students’ AI use

Teach age-appropriate AI literacy and design assignments where student thinking shows.

Save time every week

Use AI for family messages, routine writing and admin tasks, with a human check where it matters.

Learn it, try it in class, bring back the evidence

About 2 hours a week for 8 weeks. Every module ends with a task teachers use with their own students, a colleague gives feedback on it, and the live sessions build on what they bring back.

3 live sessions

90 minutes each, online: kickoff, lesson studio, showcase.

6 self-paced modules

4 core modules for everyone, then 2 in each teacher’s track.

3 classroom cycles

Three kinds of expertise in every cohort

Teachers know their students and their subject better than any course or AI tool. The course is built around that.

Teachers bring

Their expertise with their students

Their grade, their subject, their standards and what works in their classroom. Teachers judge every AI output, and every teaching decision is theirs.

The course brings

AI workflows and checks

Prompts, tools, privacy rules and the checks that keep AI output safe and accurate, practiced on each teacher’s own lessons.

Colleagues bring

Peer feedback

Every practice task gets a colleague’s comment, with one strength, one question and one suggestion, plus the facilitator’s feedback on the AI workflow.

Your standards, your tools, your rules

The course works inside the standards, the tools and the privacy rules your district already has.

Works with your standards

Teachers plan from your state standards. The English Learner track also uses your English language proficiency framework.

WIDA
ELPA21
California ELD
Texas ELPS

Works with the tools you approve

Teachers practice with the AI tools your district has already approved. Telo AI’s classroom robot appears in the English Learner track as one example of a speaking partner, never a requirement.

Built around student privacy

FERPA and COPPA basics, a data checklist for any tool, and a clear rule: no student data in general chatbots.

Questions districts ask

Which track should each teacher take?+

Classroom teachers take the track for their grade band. ESL, ELD and bilingual teachers take the English Learner track. Principals, assistant principals and instructional coaches take the school leaders and coaches track. Teachers who work across grades choose the band closest to most of their students.

How is this different from free AI courses for teachers?+

Free courses are a good start, and many last one to three hours. This course runs 15 hours over 8 weeks, works with whichever AI tools your district has approved, and every module ends with practice in the teacher’s own classroom and feedback from a colleague.

Can we train our whole staff?+

Yes. A whole-district plan runs cohorts of up to 30 teachers through the school year, each teacher in their own track, with volume pricing. Your coaches can take the leaders and coaches track to support teachers between sessions.

Who leads the course?+

Alexis Jamin, founder of Telo AI and an AI trainer for Cegos, leads the AI workflows, the privacy rules and the checks. Teachers are the experts on their students: every teaching decision is theirs, and every practice task gets feedback from a colleague as well as from the facilitator.

Do teachers need a Telo AI robot?+

No. Teachers practice with the AI tools your district has approved. Telo AI’s robot appears in the English Learner track as one example of a speaking partner.

How much time does it take?+

About 2 hours a week for 8 weeks, 15 hours in all, including three 90-minute live sessions online.

Is it live or self-paced?+

Both: four core modules and two track modules, self-paced and about an hour each; three live sessions; three classroom cycles with the teacher’s own students; and one coaching pod.

What do teachers need to take part?+

A class for the three classroom cycles (leaders and coaches work with a school or a team), and access to an AI tool your district has approved.

Which funds can we use?+

Title II, Part A and Title IV, Part A fit professional development for all teachers. For the English Learner track, Title III, Part A requires effective professional development for teachers of English Learners. Your district and state decide which funds apply.
