Expanding cechat’s reach across Australia

CEnet is proud to announce the extraordinary growth and adoption of cechat, our innovative generative AI solution, across Australian Catholic dioceses. This milestone highlights cechat’s transformative impact on teaching, learning, and administrative efficiency, supporting schools in both urban centres and regional communities.

Our interactive map showcases the breadth of cechat’s use, with schools across many Australian dioceses already embracing this technology to enhance educational outcomes. From streamlining workflows for staff to fostering student engagement, cechat is designed to meet the unique needs of Catholic schools, large and small.

The cechat impact

  • Over 110 schools are actively engaging with cechat.

  • 14 member dioceses, 1 non-member diocese and 14 independent schools have onboarded educators and support staff.

  • 3 Catholic Education Commissions are participating in the pilot.

  • 2 trial schools have introduced students to the pilot.

This growing adoption reaffirms CEnet’s vision of delivering collaborative, scalable, and secure technology solutions to Catholic schools and organisations.

All about AI

New to AI? This primer serves as an introduction into AI, by reflecting on the history of AI, and then analysing its more contemporary iteration as 'Generative AI'. That is, the AI that is prevalent across the technologies we use today.

CEnet's AI Strategy This session considers AI within Catholic education, and how CEnet is tackling AI by first considering the definition of AI principles, and then the practical application of AI to enhance teaching, learning and administrative practice.

Future: Forward

In August 2024, CEnet held Future: Forward, a two-day conference aimed at bringing together decision makers, theologians, curriculum leaders, educators, and data, IT and security experts from Catholic education dioceses. The goal was to collaborate and shape how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is adapted to enhance Catholic education in Australia. See the recordings from this event!
