Professional development for AI is both uneven and underdeveloped across higher education. Our research found that faculty often receive more structured training opportunities than staff, and many institutions lack a clear strategy for who delivers training, what content is prioritized, and how training connects to institutional goals. This session explores four emerging training roles—faculty/peer trainers, administrators, students, and external partners—and offers a framework for building sustainable AI capacity that reaches everyone, not just those who opt in. This session is designed for Senior leaders of Academic and Student Affairs, HR leaders, teaching and learning center directors, faculty development coordinators, and department chairs responsible for professional development.
