The Department for Education and the AI Content Store project team from Faculty, ImpactEd Group, Open Education AI and AI in Education, invite you to a TechUK members' workshop, where they will share behind-the-scenes insights and updates from the developing programme.
Over the two-hour session the project team will give a demonstration of the evolving capabilities of the store, which aims to reduce barriers to innovation in the UK edtech space by providing an online repository of high-quality, optimised, machine-readable content, that tools can be built from.
Attendees will then have the opportunity to give feedback on the work so far and make suggestions for the store's continued development. After the session there will be the chance for an informal, networking lunch.
