PD on AI, taught by someone who actually built it
Most professional development on artificial intelligence is theory. This is taught by a digital media professional who spent 14 years building the algorithms your students scroll through every day — now helping your staff use AI with clarity, confidence, and real classroom boundaries.
Your students are already living inside AI
They’re encountering it through search, social platforms, homework tools, chatbots, and image generators — every day, with or without a lesson plan. Most educators haven’t had the chance to sit with these tools themselves, and most AI trainings stop at “should students use this?” This one goes further.
Whether your school calls it AI training for teachers, AI workshops for teachers, or artificial intelligence professional development, the goal is the same: give your staff real fluency, not just a policy memo.
Taught by the industry, not about it
Founder Schnelle Acevedo, MPA, built a successful digital publishing business from scratch — 14 years creating and monetizing content full-time, work that put her in front of brands like Disney, Netflix, Amazon, and P&G — before turning that real-world platform experience into generative AI training for educators that’s grounded in how these tools actually work, not textbook theory. She’s also a mother of three NYC students and a former NYC public school student herself, which means every session is built around what’s actually happening in your building, not a generic slide deck.

Schnelle Acevedo, MPA
Schnelle built a successful digital publishing business from scratch — 14 years creating and monetizing content full-time as Brooklyn Active Mama — before turning that real-world platform experience into classroom curriculum.

Bring AI professional development to your school
Your teachers don’t need to become AI experts. They need enough understanding, practice, and confidence to make informed decisions about how AI fits into their classrooms. That’s what AI professional development for schools should actually deliver.
