Study AI and digital education online*

Building on our popular AI for Educators short courses, we're developing online qualifications for working professionals who want to grow their expertise in AI and digital education. Through flexible online study you'll develop the expertise to lead responsible AI adoption across schools and kura, tertiary institutions and workplace learning environments.

You'll go beyond learning how to simply use AI tools, and explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping teaching, learning, assessment, and educational systems more broadly. You'll critically evaluate emerging AI technologies, design meaningful digital learning experiences, and examine the wider ethical, cultural, and societal implications of AI in education.

With support from UC education experts, you'll develop the ability to engage thoughtfully with AI - understanding both its possibilities and its limitations. These online qualifications will emphasize critical AI literacy, enabling you to assess AI tools, recognise risks such as bias and misinformation, and implement technologies in ways that are ethical, culturally responsive, and effective for diverse learners.

You'll graduate with a recognised UC postgraduate qualification and the practical skills to champion ethical, effective use of AI in education. Help improve teaching and learning outcomes across Aotearoa New Zealand through flexible online study.

International applicants are encouraged to explore visa requirements relevant to these study options.
