Good AI teaching
belongs to everyone.
Everything on Learn AI is free to take, free to finish, and free to prove. If you teach AI, on your own or as an organisation, you can publish your lessons on the Institute of AI's Learn platform, credited to you and free to everyone who takes them.
Free at the point of use,
and staying that way.
AI is changing how people work, and the cost of understanding it should not land on the people least able to pay. Learn AI carries no paywall, no trial, and no upsell, and contributions are welcome on exactly those terms.
Open to everyone
Every lesson is free to take and free to finish, and the opening section needs no account at all. Nothing published on Learn AI moves behind a paywall later.
Every level, not just the basics
Lessons run from beginner to advanced, and all three are wanted. A first introduction and a deep technical lesson are equally worth contributing.
Reviewed before it publishes
Every lesson is reviewed against the IoAI competency framework. Contribution is open to anyone, and the standard the teaching is held to stays the same.
Teachers, lecturers,
and practitioners who teach.
You already explain this for a living, in a classroom, a lecture theatre, a training room, or a Monday stand-up. A lesson on Learn AI puts that explanation in front of the people who may never sit in your room.
- A subject you teach often enough to know exactly where people get stuck.
- One clear thing a learner can do by the end that they could not do at the start.
- Language pitched at the level of the lesson, with the terms that matter explained rather than assumed.
- Written, filmed, or both, whichever suits the subject best.
- An end-of-lesson knowledge check that tests whether a learner can apply the material.
You do not need to hold IoAI accreditation, work in academia, or have published anything before. What is assessed is the teaching, and the Institute of AI works alongside you until it is right.
Whatever you contribute reaches people who would never have found their way to a paid course: parents, career changers, charity staff, teachers, and anyone who has been told AI matters without ever being shown why.
Propose a lessonTraining providers, universities,
and learning teams.
Organisations contribute at volume: a set of lessons on a subject they teach well, kept current, published under a named partnership. Your organisation is credited on every lesson it contributes, and every one of them stays free.
You already build AI curriculum for clients. A contributed set of lessons puts the same teaching in front of a public audience, alongside the commercial work rather than instead of it.
Turn material your department teaches well into public lessons, credited to your university, alongside the recognition route for your programmes.
Internal AI training that works tends to work outside the building too. Contributing it is a public signal of how seriously your organisation takes the subject.
Reach a national audience with teaching aimed at your field or the people you serve, without building and running a learning platform of your own.
- An agreed set of lessons, scoped in the first conversation, on subjects your teams already teach.
- Named attribution on every contributed lesson, shown to every learner who takes it.
- Written lessons, filmed lessons, or a mix of the two, whichever suits the material.
- Editorial review by the Institute of AI, so the standard holds across the whole library.
- A review cycle that keeps the material current as the field moves.
Start with one conversation
Tell us what your teams teach and who they teach it to. Scope, format, and attribution are agreed from there, and every lesson that comes out of it stays free to the people who take it.
Talk to the Learn teamYour name sits
on the lesson.
Every lesson page carries an instructor section, and contributed lessons say so plainly. Learners can see where the teaching comes from and who stands behind it, on the page itself rather than in the small print.
The Institute of AI
The UK's professional body for artificial intelligence
The Institute of AI sets the standard of AI practice, works to that standard itself, and puts it within reach of everyone else. Learn AI is one of the ways it does that, free to anyone.
This lesson comes from an external contributor, published in partnership with the Institute of AI and reviewed to the same standard as every other lesson.
Your name, or your organisation
Your role, or what your organisation does
A short paragraph in your own words on why you teach this subject and what you bring to it, shown to every learner who opens the lesson.
The work stays yours. Publishing it on Learn AI puts it in front of a national audience, with your name on it, free to everyone who takes it.
You already teach it.
Now publish it.
It starts with a conversation about what you teach, and ends with a lesson anyone can take for free, with your name on it.

We review it for alignment with the competency framework, then agree the level and the format with you.
Publish
It goes live credited to you, free for anyone to take, with a record of completion for everyone who passes.
