Collège Boréal joins Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute’s AI Workforce Readiness Program
12 November 2025
As the first francophone institution to join this new consortium, Collège Boréal is strengthening its students’ skills in artificial intelligence and helping expand access to French-language knowledge and resources related to this technology.
Collège Boréal has joined the AI Workforce Readiness Program, a national initiative led by the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute (Amii) that aims to equip more than 125,000 students each year with foundational skills in artificial intelligence (AI).
Future Boréal cohorts will see new concepts in AI, critical thinking, and ethics integrated into their courses and learning activities, preparing them to thrive in workplaces where AI is becoming an everyday tool.
To achieve this, Collège Boréal will work with Amii and partner institutions to adapt and share open educational resources in French – such as readings, case studies, and activities – for the benefit of all its campuses across Ontario.
Artificial intelligence is already part of our daily lives. Our role is to help our students understand these tools, use them wisely, and keep people at the heart of decision-making. We want our graduates to be both technologically skilled and aware of the ethical questions this technology raises.
