National Multiplier Events

As part of the AI-HED project, we are organising national multiplier events in three European cities. These events bring together educators, researchers, and higher education professionals to explore the impact of Artificial Intelligence on teaching and learning.

Each event will feature presentations, discussions, and hands-on activities showcasing the project's results, including AI literacy resources, training materials, and policy recommendations for higher education institutions.
