NVIDIA pledges $25 million to enhance AI education for K-12 students in the U.S., partnering with Study Fetch and CK-12 to align with AI education initiatives.
NVIDIA has announced a significant commitment to advancing artificial intelligence education for K-12 students in the United States. At a recent White House event dedicated to public-private partnerships in AI education, NVIDIA pledged $25 million to enhance AI literacy and educator support, according to NVIDIA's blog.
Strategic Partnerships to Boost AI Literacy
As part of this initiative, NVIDIA is collaborating with leading educational platforms Study Fetch and CK-12. The partnership aims to customize the offerings of the NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute (DLI) and NVIDIA Academy to meet the instructional needs of U.S. K-12 classrooms. The integration of NVIDIA's training materials into these platforms will empower high school educators with the resources necessary to teach AI effectively.
Aligning with National AI Education Goals
This move aligns with the White House's executive order on Advancing Artificial Intelligence Education for American Youth, which was announced in April. NVIDIA has also signed the White House’s Pledge to America’s Youth, committing to deliver AI literacy, credentialing, and educator enablement. The overarching goal is to reach 1 million K-12 students within the next three years, thereby fostering a new generation of AI leaders.
Comprehensive Support for Educators
In its first year, NVIDIA's initiative will focus on adapting curricula, integrating platforms, training educators, and engaging with educational institutions. By collaborating with Study Fetch and CK-12, NVIDIA intends to make its industry-leading training materials accessible to high school educators, thus enabling students to gain hands-on experience with AI technologies.
Driving U.S. Leadership in AI
The initiative is part of a broader national strategy to cement U.S. leadership in AI. The White House's "Winning the AI Race: America’s AI Action Plan," unveiled in July, supports executive orders to promote the exportation of American AI technology and accelerate the development of data center infrastructure. Additionally, NVIDIA and the U.S. National Science Foundation have committed $152 million to develop open AI models, further supporting academic and nonprofit scientific leadership.
Through these efforts, NVIDIA is not only enhancing its commitment to education but is also playing a pivotal role in preparing the next generation to thrive in an AI-driven economy.
