AI Literacy Program — Free Workforce Training

This is a free training program, not a job posting. Strategic Workforce Development, Inc. is a Kansas City nonprofit. We're enrolling now for our AI Literacy Program. There is no cost to participate and no experience required.

What it is

AI is changing how work gets done — in offices, on job sites, in dispatch, in the back office. Most training on it is built for people who already sit at a desk with a laptop. Ours isn't. This program is built for people who work with their hands, people looking for their next job, and people who want to move up where they already are.

Over three to four weeks, about 60 hours in person at the SWD AI Lab, you'll learn:

• What these tools actually are, and where they get things wrong
• How to use them on real work — applications and résumés, but also scheduling, documentation, writing, research, and customer communication
• How to check an answer instead of trusting it
• What should never go into one of these tools, and why

You'll finish by building something real that applies to your own work or job search, presenting it, and earning a certificate of completion based on what you demonstrated — not just attendance.

Who this is for

• Job seekers and people between jobs
• Workers who want to move up in their current role
• People returning to the workforce
• Anyone in construction, transportation, warehousing, administration, or operations
• No degree required. No tech background required. If you can use a smartphone, you can do this.

Upcoming cohorts

• Monday, September 14
• Monday, October 12
• Monday, November 9

Seats are limited and fill in the order applications are received. Apply at least one week before your preferred start date.

Also available

Two-day intensive sessions for employers who want to train their staff — September 22–23, October 20–21, and November 17–18. Employers, contact us directly; Missouri grant funding may cover the cost.
