Before the pilots, teachers and students in all four countries participated in dedicated training sessions to familiarise themselves with the AI4EDU tools and evaluation instruments. Sessions focused on using the Study Buddy and Teacher Mate assistants for several teaching and learning activities, e.g. lesson planning, content creation, concept explanation etc. as well as on informing teachers about the evaluation procedures and instruments.

• Cyprus: Eight secondary school teachers joined an online training session (31 January 2025) led by the University of Cyprus (UCY). Following this, 119 students were trained by their teachers on the Study Buddy use (7/2/2025)
• Greece: Eleven teachers attended an in-person workshop (28 January 2025) at Ellinogermaniki Agogi (EA), Athens, Greece, conducted by researchers of the Athena Research Center (ARC).
