GC x AI Foundations provides:

✓ A structured AI literacy curriculum

✓ Faculty implementation resources

✓ Discussion guides and teaching tools

✓ Direct support from the founders

✓ A framework aligned with the future of genetic counseling education

Because preparing students for an AI-enabled future shouldn't require faculty to become AI experts first.

12 expert-led modules • Faculty implementation toolkit • Classroom-ready resources

Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping healthcare, education, research, and professional workflows. Yet many genetic counseling programs are still determining how—and where—to introduce AI into an already crowded curriculum.

GC x helps bridge that gap.

Our inaugural Foundations of AI for Genetic Counseling course provides a ready-to-implement, bias-aware curriculum designed specifically for genetic counseling education.

Built by genetic counselors. Designed for genetic counseling programs.

Why Programs Are Joining

You don't need another thing to build.

You need a practical way to introduce AI into your curriculum without asking faculty to spend dozens of hours creating content, tracking emerging tools, developing policies, or reinventing coursework from scratch.

12 expert-led modules progressing from literacy → critical evaluation → practical skills → real-world application.
