Join Us in Shaping the Future of AI Education

The NSF LEVEL UP AI initiative brings together educators, researchers, and professionals across the computing community to build a shared vision for expanding capacity and access to AI education. As part of NSF’s EducateAI program, this initiative plays a vital role in leading national efforts to create an AI-ready workforce.

Aligned with the National AI Research Resource (NAIRR) initiative, NSF LEVEL UP AI ensures broad access to computational tools, data, and training essential for delivering high-quality AI education across the U.S.

AI is reshaping our world, and it’s up to us to ensure that everyone can participate and benefit from these advances. NSF LEVEL UP AI will develop strategies to grow AI programs at educational institutions nationwide while keeping education accessible to all students.

A Community-Led Effort on AI Education

NSF LEVEL UP AI is a key part of the NSF EducateAI initiative, a nationwide effort to prepare the next generation of AI professionals.

Our work focuses on:

• Increasing capacity by expanding AI curricula and building the infrastructure needed to deliver high-quality education.
• Promoting access to ensure that students from all backgrounds have opportunities to participate in AI programs.
• Building community consensus to develop actionable strategies that transform AI education across institutions.

CRA is proud to help lead NSF’s national effort to expand and improve AI education, working alongside NAIRR and other federal initiatives to broaden access to AI education resources. LEVEL UP AI is planning to serve as a Coordination Hub for all conference projects funded under the NAIRR Pilot Expansion. Stay tuned for details.
