The University of Kentucky’s ALT Hub, in collaboration with experts across campus, has introduced a new online training course aimed at enhancing AI literacy among faculty and staff.
This initiative is part of the Commonwealth AI Transdisciplinary Strategy (CATS AI), which is the university’s approach to promote the responsible use of AI in education, research, healthcare, and operations.
The course is adapted from the undergraduate curriculum “TEK 100 (Collaborative Intelligence — Understanding and Using Modern AI)” to serve as an introductory guide to AI for university employees.
It consists of six modules each focusing on different essential skills for understanding modern AI and its responsible use, culminating in a final project where participants propose AI-driven solutions to real-world problems.
The training is fully online and asynchronous, allowing participants to progress at their own pace and choose to engage more deeply through additional related hours.
Each module is designed with a distinct objective, ranging from vocabulary building to ethical considerations and societal impacts of AI.
