But what if you could shorten that steep learning curve, and make AI your personal teaching assistant right away?
That's how 40 Hour AI works.

You just need the MOST impactful ways to streamline your teaching workload now, and a way to quickly get help with your tasks.

Anytime you feel stuck on how to complete a teaching task with AI, watch the corresponding 5 minute training video in the membership library and you'll know exactly which AI tool to use and how to get the results you want. Our downloadable prompt resources will help you phrase your request for great AI output on rubrics, SMART goals, lesson plan ideas, text differentiation, and more.

Here's what you CAN learn to do through 40 Hour AI
I’m Angela Watson, and I founded the original 40 Hour Teacher Workweek program in 2015.
My courses have now helped over 60,000 teachers find more effective, efficient, and enjoyable ways to approach their work…and in recent years, we’ve begun training instructional coaches and administrators, too!
As a National Board Certified Teacher with a masters degree in Curriculum and Instruction, over a decade of classroom teaching experience, and nearly two decades as an instructional coach…I know educational best practices.
I’ve been supporting teachers through my books, podcast, courses, articles, PD, and other resources for over 20 years (since founding my website, TruthforTeachers.com, in 2003.)
I’m proud to be a long-trusted source for teaching advice, and a knowledgable guide through the rapidly-changing world of artificial intelligence.
Over the next few years, AI will transform every aspect of the way schools operate, and it’s imperative for educators to get out ahead of the trends. ensure the changes are what’s best for teachers and kids.
We don’t need tech CEOs making decisions about AI in education: we need informed classroom teachers (who understand pedagogy and their students) to be the leaders of change.
If you want to have a voice in how AI is used in your school, feel informed about new developments, and use AI in ways that make your teaching more effective and efficient, 40 Hour AI can help.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I've never used AI before?
You’ll be in good company--lots of educators are just getting started!
Foundational trainings are available to watch on-demand as soon as you join. These will give you the basics and background you need to be ready for the monthly trainings.
We cover everything you need to know (and nothing more!)
Learn how to create an Open AI account and login, get an overview of various AI tools and functionality, explore the ethics of usage, and more.
What if I’m already pretty familiar with AI?
This program is designed for you!
Skip or skim the foundational materials, and jump right into the monthly trainings, which assume some familiarity with the basics of AI.
When are the trainings held, and how do they work?
All training videos are on-demand, so you can watch (and re-watch) whenever you'd like.
Optional 30 minute live trainings will be offered throughout the year, in which you'll learn new strategies and have a change to ask questions and get assistance with tasks related to your specific teaching context.
A recording of every live training will be archived in the membership library so you can watch or re-watch on demand anytime it’s convenient.
A written guide to key points from the training will be included if you’d rather skim over the ideas instead of watching a video. You can also use the guide to help you take notes when you watch the recording.
How could this work? I need you to sit beside me and SHOW me.
The on-demand training videos are designed to feel exactly like I'm sitting next to you and showing you exactly what to do!
Also, live interactive virtual trainings will be offered several times a year, so you can ask questions and have time to experiment while I'm online with you to help troubleshoot.
You can also participate in our learning community within the membership site to ask other teachers for advice and get support for your specific teaching context.
And finally, small group virtual coaching sessions will be offered periodically as an optional add-on for those who want to have more individualized support.
Why is access for a year instead of forever like your other courses?
The constant changes and new developments in AI require us to be constantly updating the videos, along with adding new trainings on a monthly basis.
So, I'm offering it as a membership library (collection of video resources) rather than as a standard 40 Hour course.
What happens when my year is up?
You can renew for a discounted price if you'd like to continue your membership beyond the first year.
We'll reach out to you several days before your membership ends and let you know about the special coupon code available for current members.
If you choose not to renew, you'll no longer have access to the membership library.
What happens if I choose the quarterly membership?
We'll notify you when your 90 days is almost up (membership begins the day you join.)
You can cancel with the click of a button, continue at the same quarterly price, or upgrade to the yearly pass a
Do you offer school or district discounts?
Yes, group discounts are available for 7+ teachers. Email us to learn more.
Are there discounts for graduates of other 40 Hour programs?
Yes, anyone who has previously taken a 40 Hour course (Full Year, Fast Track, IC, Leadership) will be able to purchase 40 Hour AI with a special coupon code.
Check the "next steps" final section of your course materials for the coupon code.
