Are you working in education support and wondering if there is a place for you in the world of AI? This beginner-friendly webinar from Edu AI is designed to help you explore that question with confidence. You do not need any experience in AI, coding, data science, or technology to join. We will explain everything in simple language and show you how the skills you already use in education support can connect to new opportunities in AI.
Many people think AI is only for programmers or technical experts, but that is not true. AI means tools and systems that can help computers do tasks such as answering questions, sorting information, spotting patterns, or helping people work faster. In this session, we will break down what AI is, where it is used, and why people from non-technical backgrounds are becoming valuable in this field. If you have experience supporting learners, managing communication, organising information, or helping others use digital tools, you may already have useful strengths for AI-related roles.
During the webinar, you will learn what a realistic first step into AI looks like for someone coming from education support. We will talk about beginner-level pathways, the types of jobs that may suit your background, and the practical skills you can start building right away. This includes understanding AI tools, learning how to use them safely and responsibly, and discovering how human skills like empathy, organisation, clear communication, and problem-solving still matter in an AI-driven workplace. We assume zero prior knowledge, so every topic will be introduced from the ground up.
This event is for complete beginners. It is especially helpful for teaching assistants, learning support staff, pastoral support workers, school administrators, student support teams, and anyone in education support who wants to explore future career options. If you are curious about AI but feel unsure where to begin, you are very welcome here. No question is too basic, and no technical background is expected.
To prepare, all you need is a laptop, a stable internet connection, and curiosity. You do not need to install any special software or study anything in advance. Just come ready to listen, learn, and ask questions. By the end of the session, you will have a clearer understanding of how AI fits into today’s job market and what your next step could be if you want to move into this exciting area.
