PCPD 30th Anniversary Presents –
Webinar on “AI Applications in Schools and Data Protection”

AI Applications in Schools and Data Protection

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has developed rapidly and has been increasingly adopted in the education sector, such as for teaching support, learning analytics, student support services and school administration. While leveraging AI technologies, schools must properly handle the personal data of students, parents and staff, ensure compliance with the requirements of the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance and mitigate risks relating to privacy and data security.

To assist school management and teachers in the proper and responsible use of AI technologies, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD), in collaboration with the Hong Kong Association for Computer Education (HKACE), organise this webinar to examine the privacy risks arising from the use of AI in schools, provide recommendations on developing internal guidelines and considerations for AI governance, and share practical experiences and recommended measures relating to information technology (IT) security and daily school operations.

Principals and teachers from primary and secondary schools are welcome to attend. The event is supported by the Education Bureau (EDB). Attendees will receive 1.5 CPD hours from the EDB.

Enrolment is on a first-come-first-served basis. Please click the link below to register for the event via the EDB Training Calendar System:
