The AI Maturity Model

Find your level. Then move one rung.

For individuals at any level — score yourself honestly, not your organisation.

Free. One password, and every file in the library is yours.

Whether you're apprehensive about AI or already experimenting, this framework shows where your personal AI skills actually are and what to build next. It scores you, not your organisation — nine levels from Apprehensive to App Developer, each with the skills that define it, the risks to watch, and the one thing to do next.

Try it right here

Tap the rung that sounds like you. Be honest — the model works on where you are, not where you'd like to be.

“AI is part of my regular workflow and I am deepening my understanding.”

This is the recommended target for every nonprofit professional. Deepening here — voice guides, prompt libraries, custom assistants, knowing when to restart a conversation — keeps paying off; the levels above are specialised territory, not the next assignment.

Nine levels, from Apprehensive to building your own tools — and Level 3, Practitioner, is the recommended target for every nonprofit professional.

Inside the file

All nine levels, from Level −1 (Apprehensive) to Level 7 (App/Coding Developer)
Core skills and knowledge that define each level
The risks and limitations to watch at each stage
A concrete "do this next" for every level
"Ready for the next level when..." — so you know when you've moved
Why Level 3, Practitioner, is the target — and why higher is optional, specialised territory

Take it with you.

Share it freely inside your organisation. That is what it is for.
