Building AI Literacy at Canada's National Public Broadcaster Radio-Canada

Launched Sept. 2023; 100+ staff across TV, radio and web trained via three-hour foundational sessions, bi-weekly cross-functional expertise-group meetings and hands-on 'prompt clinics'; an internal prompts library documents newsroom GenAI use cases. Concrete win: the 'En Bref' AI news-summary workflow prototyped from a prompt clinic. CBC/Radio-Canada adopted a company-wide AI charter (May 2024) and created an AI Editorial Specialist role. Led by Florent Daudens (later Press Lead at Hugging Face).
