Trained Network
Help get Canada trained for AI.
No organization can do this alone. We’re building a Canada-wide network of people and companies with expertise across AI training, organizational knowledge, technology and implementation.
How Trained works
Organizations come to Trained. We help assemble the right path.
Trained helps organizations understand what they need, navigate the funding and delivery options available to them, and bring together the right expertise to make it happen. We don’t believe one organization needs to deliver every part itself.
- 01
Understand the need
Where the organization is today, what capabilities it needs and where AI is already showing up.
- 02
Navigate funding and delivery
Which funding programs may apply, and what location, provider and delivery rules matter.
- 03
Assemble the expertise
The right mix of people for each part, from Trained, specialist partners or both.
- 04
Connect training to the work
Link training to the organizational change and implementation that make AI adoption last.
Expertise we want to know
Across the three parts of getting trained for AI.
We’re looking for excellent people and organizations in any of these areas. You don’t need to cover all of them.

Who is building it
The Trained Network is being built by Josh Zak, who also writes and maintains Trained’s AI Training Funding Guide.

Organizations work with Trained. We get to know people and organizations individually and bring them in when they’re the right fit for a need.
Funding eligibility is useful, not required
We want to understand which funding programs you have delivered under, but it isn’t a prerequisite. Different providers suit different organizations, programs, places and needs.
Being built now
We’re building this network one relationship at a time. Telling us about your work starts a conversation; it isn’t an application for a listing.
Join the network
Tell us about your work.
Share what you do, where you work and who you help. Only a few fields are required. We read every submission and will be in touch if there’s a fit.
What should AI do in your organization?
Tell us where you are today, what you are trying to improve, and where AI is already showing up. We will start with the work, not the technology.
