In short

ALiF describes the AI skills that people in health care and universities need. The proposed changes would ask employers and universities that use ALiF to show how people get time, practice, supervision and a say when AI changes their work, and would stop self-assessment scores being used in decisions about individuals. We want to know what you think.

Who should respond

Educators, clinicians and other professionals, trainees and students, administrative and support staff, managers, people who design training or assessments, regulators and policy makers, and researchers. You do not need to answer every question. A short answer on one point is useful.

Is it safe to respond?

Your response will not be shared with your manager, department, human resources or academic office, and will play no part in any decision about you. You do not have to give your name, and there will be an anonymous way to respond.

How to respond

The consultation document, the response form and the draft Standard will be published here when the consultation opens on 2 November 2026. Responses will be welcome in Arabic or English, and there will be online sessions for people who prefer to comment in conversation.

What happens next

A summary of responses, and a table showing how each point was handled, will be published with the revised draft in February 2027. The revised draft will then be open for a further 30 days of comment. ALiF 2.0 is planned for release in the second quarter of 2027.
