StrongMind, a provider of digital curriculum and learning technology for K-12 schools, has unveiled StrongMind CoursePro, an AI-powered platform for building standards-aligned courses. The company presented it at DLAC Ignite in Atlanta, and says availability details will follow in the coming weeks.

Key points
  • StrongMind unveiled CoursePro, an AI course creation platform for K-12 educators and curriculum teams, at DLAC Ignite in Atlanta.
  • The platform is built on Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and, according to StrongMind, produces curriculum units 1.6 times faster than its previous approach.
  • StrongMind says it will announce availability details in the coming weeks.
  • Four company sessions covered educator-led course design, trust in AI curriculum and personalized learning.
  • StrongMind Campus, a K-12 learning platform, is set to launch for the 2027-28 school year.

What CoursePro does

StrongMind CoursePro is aimed at educators and curriculum teams. According to the company, it helps them build high-quality, multimedia-rich, standards-aligned courses faster and with less complexity. The platform runs on StrongMind Intelligence, the company's proprietary AI layer, and is designed to support educator expertise rather than replace it.

The idea is that the AI takes on much of the production work involved in building a digital course. That leaves teams more time for quality, creativity and the learner experience, StrongMind says.

CEO and Founder Damian Creamer said the product is "about giving educators more control over how great learning experiences are built." He said it combines over two decades of expertise in curriculum design, learning science and technology, and claimed it can significantly reduce course development costs for schools.

Built on Amazon Bedrock

StrongMind says CoursePro is built on Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. Its agentic architecture automates the generation and evaluation of K-12 courseware. According to the company, this produces curriculum units 1.6 times faster than StrongMind's previous approach.

The AI curriculum development work behind the platform earned StrongMind recognition as a 2026 AWS EdTech Champion from Amazon Web Services.

The company has not yet given availability details. It says it will announce them in the coming weeks. It will also share information at its booth about a StrongMind CoursePro Fellowship Program, with program details and participation information still to be announced.

Four sessions at DLAC Ignite

StrongMind leaders presented four sessions on Tuesday, Oct. 20, at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, where the conference ran Oct. 19-21. The platform was demonstrated at Booth 504 throughout the event. The sessions were:

  • Building Smarter: How AI-Powered Course Builder Is Reshaping K-12 Digital Curriculum, with Dr. Scott Neil, Chief Learning Officer, and Megan Morkert, Learning Innovation Prompt Engineer.
  • From 18 Months to 4 Weeks: What Happens When Educators Build Their Own Courses, with Damian Creamer, Megan Morkert and Dr. Scott Neil.
  • When Wrong Looks Right: Building Evidence-Based Trust in AI Curriculum Development, with Dr. Scott Neil and Megan Morkert.
  • From Content to Comprehension: How AI-Powered Knowledge Infrastructure Is Personalizing K-12 Learning at Scale, with Mike Kunz, Vice President of Data and Technology Operations, and Max Creamer, Director of AI Strategy.

The third session addresses a concern that comes with AI-generated teaching material. "Any school using AI to build curriculum has to be able to show that what it produces is accurate and instructionally sound," Neil said. He added that the sessions explain the approach with CoursePro, "including the review practices that keep educators in control of what reaches students."

What it means for schools

For schools and curriculum teams, CoursePro is pitched as a way to shorten course production and cut development costs while keeping educators in charge of review. The session title "From 18 Months to 4 Weeks" points to the scale of time savings StrongMind is promoting, though the release does not detail how that comparison was measured.

CoursePro is one of two products in the company's AI portfolio. The other is StrongMind Campus, a K-12 learning platform that StrongMind says will launch for the 2027-28 school year. Both run on StrongMind Intelligence. Until pricing and availability are published, schools cannot yet judge how the claimed speed and cost benefits apply to them.
