AI & Educator Readiness: What the Global Research Shows and Why It Matters
Generative AI is showing up in more K–12 classrooms, but key questions remain: How prepared are teachers? What does effective AI-enabled teaching look like? And under what conditions do these tools actually improve teaching and learning?
Join us for our next free webinar where we connect research, policy, and practice to explore what shapes teachers' engagement, confidence, and capacity to integrate AI meaningfully into classroom practice.
The discussion draws on studies from the World Innovation Summit for Education (WISE) conducted with USC Rossier School of Education and MIT on how AI is being integrated into K–12 education across 12 countries. Panelists will share USC's research on teacher readiness, WISE × MIT's evaluation of AI professional development courses, and findings from the WISE EdTech Testbed where teachers pilot and evaluate AI tools in real classrooms.

Transforming the working world with immersive AI
Immersive AI – combining virtual and augmented reality with artificial intelligence – is fast becoming one of the most powerful tools for transforming how we live and how businesses operate.
From smarter training environments, predictive risk management and more engaging customer experiences, larger organisations are already investing heavily, and the pace of adoption is accelerating.
But immersive technology isn’t just for big businesses.
BSI is hosting this free webinar specifically for SMEs as part of the Innovate UK BridgeAI programme.
Guidance and resources are also being developed by BSI to help businesses benefit from emerging AI capabilities. Your input during the webinar will help shape that work.
