CheckIT Learning Earns Prestigious Responsibly Designed AI Certification

CheckIT Learning has achieved a significant milestone by becoming one of the inaugural recipients of Digital Promise's prestigious Responsibly Designed AI Certification, establishing a new gold standard for ethical AI implementation in education technology.

Developed through collaborative efforts with 40 district leaders, instructional technologists, school staff, and AI researchers, this certification distinguishes AI-enabled products that meet rigorous standards designed by education professionals who directly implement AI solutions in learning environments.

"We believe in the power of AI to support learning, not replace it - and that power must be rooted in trust, ethics, and transparency," said Myriam Da Silva, CEO of CheckIT Learning. "Receiving the Responsibly Designed AI Certification validates our ongoing commitment to building tools that are safe and age-appropriate, meaningful, inclusive, and centered on what truly matters: student well-being and success. "

To earn this prestigious certification, CheckIT Learning demonstrated excellence in five critical areas:

• Transparent data collection and usage practices
• Comperhensive response plans for data breach incidents
• Inclusive AI development with continuous monitoring for algorithmic bias
• Clear labeling of all generative AI features
• Maintaining educator agency to modify or override AI outputs

This recognition comes at a crucial time as education leaders navigate an increasingly crowded AI marketplace. The certification provides a transparent framework for identifying tools that prioritize student equity, data security, and responsible design - allowing districts to make informed procurement decisions backed by independent, third-party validation.

Education leaders from major districts, including Chicago Public Schools and Denver Public Schools, have already begun incorporating this certification into their evaluation processes, recognizing its value in streamlining procurement decisions.

The certification aligns perfectly with CheckIT Learning's vision: creating research-based, learner-focused tools that empower students, educators, and institutions through responsible innovation. As AI becomes increasingly embedded in digital learning experiences, this achievement signals to partners, districts, and users that CheckIT Learning is committed to leading with integrity.

As conversations around AI in education continue to evolve, CheckIT Learning remains dedicated to being a trusted partner, developing tools that meet today's needs while anticipating tomorrow's possibilities - with responsibility and care at the core.
