Membership and Supported Seats

Membership at Launch Pad Institute is more than a donation. Every membership directly funds supported seats — free and subsidized workshop places for learners who couldn't otherwise attend — and makes you part of a community building a more inclusive future.

Why join

Your membership keeps our doors open to the learners who need us most.

Launch Pad Institute is a Saskatchewan non-profit on a mission to make practical AI literacy accessible to everyone — especially low-income learners, newcomers, Indigenous communities, and people facing barriers to work.

When you become a member, you put real, hands-on AI skills within reach of the people most often left behind by them — while gaining member rates, our full resource library, and a say in the workshops we build next.

"The future is better when we build it together."
