AI Learning Journeys
Start your AI learning journey where you're at and grow with confidence at your own pace.
Welcome to Your AI Learning Journey
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the way we work, teach, conduct research, deliver care and manage operations at the university. We are committed to ensuring that every member of the university community, regardless of role or technical background, has access to practical, relevant and trustworthy AI learning.
The AI Learning Journeys are a curated, continuously updated set of learning pathways designed to help faculty, staff and students build AI skills at your own pace, discover tools and techniques relevant to your specific work, and grow your confidence and capability as AI continues to evolve.
Note: Depending on your role with the university, some trainings may not be accessible due to restricted platform access. These trainings will be identified so that you can easily navigate your options.
The AI Learning Journeys are designed for everyone at CU Anschutz, including:
- Faculty and instructors exploring AI in teaching, curriculum design and research
- Researchers looking to apply AI to literature reviews, data analysis, grant development and research productivity
- Administrative professionals seeking to improve efficiency through AI-assisted scheduling, communications and operations
- Human Resources professionals exploring AI in recruiting, workforce development and talent management
- Leaders and managers who want to understand AI strategy, support adoption and identify innovation opportunities
- Students building foundational AI literacy and responsible use habits
- Power users, champions and innovators ready to design AI-assisted workflows and support peers
There are three learning journeys: AI Foundations, AI Practitioner and AI Advanced.
These journeys are not rigid programs with fixed requirements. Instead, they are curated learning pathways that guide you toward the content most relevant to where you are today and where you want to go.
Each journey includes:
- Featured Learning: A curated set of recommended starting-point courses that provide a strong foundation for that journey level
- Additional Learning: A broader catalog of supplemental courses, tools, and resources to explore based on your interests and goals
- Role-Based Learning Collections: Curated sets of courses organized by professional role so you can quickly find content most relevant to your work
Because AI changes rapidly, so do the learning resources in the AI Learning Journeys.
Course listings are reviewed and refreshed on an ongoing basis to ensure the content you find here is current, relevant and aligned with what is happening in AI today.
New courses are added to LinkedIn Learning, Percipio Skillsoft, and other platforms every month. New AI tools are approved, new use cases emerge, and new research shapes best practices. The AI Learning Journeys are designed to reflect this reality.
Explore what is most relevant to you right now, and return regularly to discover what is new.
