The viral advancement of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has significantly transformed educational practices by providing tools that support lesson planning, content creation, assessment development, and academic productivity. Despite its growing popularity, their successful integration in education depends largely on users' acceptance and their willingness to adopt them.

This study applies the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to examine the factors influencing the level of acceptance of Generative AI among educators and teacher trainees. It further investigates the relationships among Perceived Usefulness (PU), Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), Attitude Toward Use (ATU), and Behavioural Intention to Use (BI) Generative AI tools using a structured questionnaire administered to teacher trainees and educators. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses are employed to examine the influence of TAM constructs on the level of acceptance of Generative AI.

The findings are expected to contribute to the understanding of the factors affecting AI adoption

in educational settings and provide recommendations for teacher education institutions seeking to integrate AI technologies into teaching and learning processes.
