AI in Teaching and Learning – Support and Training for All Aaltonians

Generative AI is becoming a core skill in university teaching, learning, and research – and Aalto University is here to help you get started.

Since April, the Aalto AI Assistant – a secure, university-provided tool based on the same language models as ChatGPT – has been available to all Aalto users: teachers, students, and staff. Whether you’re exploring AI for the first time or looking for concrete ways to use it in your courses or daily work, you now have access to tailored support, hands-on training sessions, and a comprehensive self-study package.
