Trump’s order directs the federal Education Department and the National Science Foundation to prioritize awarding grants and conducting research related to artificial intelligence.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on April 23, 2025 aimed at bringing artificial intelligence into K-12 schools in hopes of building a U.S. workforce equipped to use and advance the rapidly growing technology.
Trump also directed the Education Department to favor the application of AI in discretionary grant programs for teacher training, the National Science Foundation to prioritize research on the use of AI in education, and the Labor Department to expand AI-related apprenticeships.
“This is a big deal, because AI seems to be where it’s at,” Trump said before he signed the order in the Oval Office.
