USC Salkehatchie offering free artificial intelligence (AI) summer classes

Want to learn more about artificial intelligence (AI) technology and how it might help you in your career or daily life? Or are you just curious and want to better understand what the AI fuss is all about?

The University of South Carolina - Salkehatchie has your back this summer with an upcoming opportunity for area residents to build valuable digital skills completely free of charge.

In collaboration with the USC College of Information and Communications and USC Palmetto College, the USC Salkehatchie Innovation Lab is hosting AI 4 SC Summer 2026 — a series of "practical workshops designed to help community members, local professionals, and business owners navigate and utilize AI technology," announced a USC Salk release this week.

These free workshops will be presented by AI Educator and Technology Innovator Glen Caruso and will be held in person at both Salk's Walterboro and Allendale campuses.

According to a recent Gallup poll, about 13 percent of employed Americans are already using AI tools daily in their work, and that number is expected to rapidly grow, so here is where you can seize a free classroom opportunity and gain some potential new career skills.
