Students go beyond prompting into how AI systems work — data, models, evaluation, and responsible use — through projects they can explain to a parent or teacher.
The pathway builds toward optional third-party credentials when aligned with student goals: AWS Educate, NVIDIA DLI learning paths, or Microsoft Certified Fundamentals AI-900 through Certiport. GrowWise prepares readiness; each provider handles registration separately.
Every level produces explainable work: notebooks, classifiers, ethics reviews, and a capstone presentation — not black-box demos.
Live 90-minute online sessions in small groups with project review and instructor feedback. Optional credential prep is added when the student is ready — each external badge or exam is registered separately.
Students may start at Level 1 or higher after placement. Sample sessions below show typical work at key stages.
Curriculum and levels
Every level uses 90-minute sessions. Families can start with one level, choose a builder track, or continue through certification prep when the student is ready. Pricing is shared at your pathway assessment.
