Strategic plan, 2027 to 2030
Where the institute will focus, how it will get there, and how it will know it worked.
Overview
Contractors are told they need AI and given no one to call. This plan reflects conversations with associations, contractors and experts across Canada and the US. It sets out what the institute will build, in what order, and how it will measure progress in public.
Who we are
A neutral, public-benefit body that brings together a free curriculum, ongoing research, certified experts and the associations that govern them.
What guides us
One goal: contractors use AI responsibly, affordably and safely.
How the institute creates change
Where we focus
Record every chapter at national quality, and open the library to vetted frameworks and tools from other contributors.
Certify the first experts in each member association, and run the expert bootcamp every quarter.
Seat a governing board of national associations in Canada and the US.
Publish the first findings from anonymized AI Blueprints and Discovery Sessions.
What success looks like by 2030
- Contractors of every size can find a certified expert through their association.
- Associations rely on the institute's curriculum and research when members ask about AI.
- Researchers see their findings in the curriculum, and in how contractors work.
- AI providers meet the platform criteria the curriculum teaches.
Our call to partnership
The institute only works when associations, experts, researchers and providers build it together. Join us.
