AIM-High is a statewide professional development program that helps academic and clinical nurse educators integrate generative artificial intelligence with confidence, creativity, and purpose.

Through Foundation and Master Class webinars, participants learn practical strategies to save time, strengthen teaching, support learners, and promote responsible GenAI use. Participants may also advance into the AIM-High Innovation Lab, where selected nurse educators work with mentors to develop real-world AI integration projects.

These projects will be showcased at the AIM-High Symposium, a culminating event focused on sharing ideas, outcomes, and innovations across Maryland nursing education.
