SRJC established a 44-member, tri-chaired District-wide Generative AI Task Force in fall 2024, meeting monthly through May 2026 to assess AI across learning, services, and operations and deliver actionable recommendations to College Council. The Academic Senate recommended AI syllabus statements to all faculty in March 2025 and forwarded academic integrity policy work (AP3775) through the administrative procedure process. The college has launched two new AI courses—BAD 81 "AI in Business" (Fall 2025) and CS 102 "Introduction to AI Tools" (Fall 2026)—and maintains a Distance Education AI resources hub curating external training pathways and assessment tools.
