内容总结:
谷歌与密苏里州政府达成全面合作,为该州近10万名教育工作者及逾110万名学生免费提供企业级人工智能工具、培训课程和行业认证,助力当地教育体系拥抱AI技术,同时为未来劳动力市场培养数字技能人才。
这一合作由谷歌与密苏里州中小学教育部及高等教育与劳动力发展部联合推动,覆盖K-12及高等教育阶段。谷歌方面表示,行政事务常占用教师大量教学时间,研究显示AI平均每周可为教师节省约10小时,使其能更专注于学生指导。此次合作的核心资源包括:面向教育的Gemini工具及Notebook,可帮助教师快速生成差异化教案、归纳课程内容,并给学生提供分步骤辅导;谷歌AI教育系列课程,提供免费基础培训和认证,助力教师按自身节奏提升AI素养;以及谷歌AI专业证书和职业证书,这些受行业认可的资质可融入高中及大学教学,帮助学生在人工智能、网络安全、数据分析、IT支持等热门领域掌握实用技能。
在数据安全与隐私方面,谷歌强调其教育工具内置企业级安全标准,Gemini中的对话和数据均为私密,不会用于训练谷歌AI模型。教育机构保有对数据的行政管理权限,确保数字环境安全。此外,此次虽属全州范围合作,但各学区及高校可自愿选择是否及如何采用相关工具和培训项目,因地制宜地服务本社区需求。
为将机会延伸至传统教育体系之外,谷歌还通过密苏里州当地就业中心,向全体州居民免费开放谷歌职业证书和AI课程资源,助力更多居民为当下及未来的就业市场做好准备。通过将课堂创新与社区劳动力发展相结合,密苏里州正打造一个面向未来的示范样板,探索各州如何负责任地推广人工智能应用。

密苏里州与谷歌合作推进人工智能与职业培训
谷歌正在宣布与密苏里州基础教育与中等教育部门及高等教育与劳动力发展部门建立全州范围的合作伙伴关系。这项合作将为K-12及高等教育机构中近10万名教育工作者和超过110万名学生提供企业级人工智能工具、培训课程和行业认证的免费使用权限。
人工智能在课堂中的负责任应用
我们知道行政工作往往挤占了直接教学的时间。研究显示,人工智能平均每周可为教育工作者节省多达10小时,让他们有更多时间支持和指导学生。通过这项举措,密苏里州公立学校和高等教育机构将获得以下资源:
- Gemini for Education和Gemini Notebook:旨在帮助教育工作者快速生成差异化教学材料、总结课程内容,并为学生提供分步骤的教学指导支持。
- Google AI教育者系列课程:免费的入门级培训和认证,帮助教师和学校管理者按照自己的节奏建立实用的人工智能素养。
- Google AI专业证书和Google职业证书:获得行业认可的实践性证书,教育工作者可将其融入高中和大学课程,帮助学生在人工智能、网络安全、数据分析和IT支持等高需求领域培养实用技能。
隐私、安全与地方自主权
数据安全和隐私的严格标准是Google教育工具的基础。这意味着Gemini for Education中的对话和数据是私密的,受企业级安全保护,且不会用于训练Google的人工智能模型。教育机构对数据保持行政控制权,从而确保每个人都能享有安全的数字环境。
虽然这是一项全州范围的合作,但对Google人工智能工具和培训项目的采用是自愿的。每个学区和高等院校将自行决定是否采用、何时采用以及如何整合这些资源,以更好地服务其所在社区。
全州范围的职业发展通道
为了将这些机会延伸到传统教育之外——并为所有密苏里州居民准备好迎接当下和未来的就业机会——我们正在通过当地密苏里州就业中心,向所有州居民免费开放Google职业证书和Google人工智能课程。
通过将课堂创新与社区劳动力发展相结合,密苏里州正在树立一个前瞻性的典范,展示各州如何负责任地拥抱人工智能。

Missouri and Google partner on AI and career training
Google is announcing a statewide partnership with the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) and the Department of Higher Education and Workforce Development (DHEWD). This collaboration will provide nearly 100,000 educators and more than 1.1 million students across K-12 and higher education institutions with no-cost access to enterprise-grade AI tools, training curriculum, and industry credentials.
Responsible AI in the classroom
We know administrative demands often take time away from direct instruction. Research shows that AI can save educators as much as an average of 10 hours a week, giving them more time to support and mentor students. Through this initiative, Missouri public schools and higher education institutions will gain access to:
- Gemini for Education & Gemini Notebook: Designed to help educators quickly generate differentiated lesson materials, summarize coursework, and provide students with step-by-step instructional support.
- Google AI Educator Series: Free, foundational training and credentials to help teachers and administrators build practical AI literacy at their own pace
- Google AI Professional Certificate and Google Career Certificates: Hands-on industry-recognized credentials that educators can integrate into high school and college coursework to help students build real-world skills in high-demand fields like AI, cybersecurity, data analytics, and IT support.
Privacy, security, and local control
Rigorous standards for data security and privacy are built into the foundation of Google’s education tools. This means conversations and data within Gemini for Education are private, protected by enterprise-grade security, and not used to train Google's AI models. Education institutions maintain administrative control over data, helping to ensure a safe digital environment for everyone.
While this is a statewide partnership, adoption of Google’s AI tools and training programs is voluntary. Each school district, college, and university will determine if, when, and how to integrate these resources to best serve their community.
Workforce pathways across the state
To extend these opportunities beyond traditional education — and prepare all Missourians for the jobs of today and tomorrow — we’re opening up access to Google Career Certificates and Google AI courses at no cost to all state residents through local Missouri Job Centers.
By pairing classroom innovation with community workforce development, Missouri is establishing a forward-looking model for how states can responsibly embrace AI.
