An 8-week hands-on course teaching practical AI skills. No theoretical nonsense - just real-world applications you can use immediately.
Every session is hands-on. You'll build real projects, use industry tools, and walk away with skills you can apply immediately.
Build a personal AI assistant, deploy your own website, create deepfakes (ethically), and present data-driven solutions to real problems.
Learn the same tools professionals use: Claude, ChatGPT, Midjourney, ElevenLabs, Zapier, Replit, Cursor, and more.
Every student gets access to personalized college counseling. We'll help you build an AI-powered College Counselor Agent that knows your top 5 target schools inside and out.
Each week builds on the last. By the end, you'll have a portfolio of AI projects and the skills to keep building.
Understand how large language models work under the hood. Explore the transformer architecture and see what makes models "large" vs "small."
Hands-on: Use Google Teachable Machine to see how changing weights affects model behavior. Jailbreak an LLM to understand context windows.
Build a persistent AI personality that remembers you. Learn how to use project knowledge bases to upload writing style, past projects, and interests.
Project: Create a College Counselor Agent with knowledge of your top 5 target colleges built into its memory.
Dive into vision models - how they work and why they sometimes break. Learn to leverage AI for creative and technical tasks.
Project: Draw a website frontend on paper, photograph it, and have Claude write the code for it.
Learn to orchestrate AI to take multiple steps without being asked twice. Understand "if this, then that" logic at a high level.
Project: Build an agent that finds trending topics in a specific niche and writes tweets automatically.
AI breaks down the walls of traditional coding. Learn how to describe what you want and let AI handle the syntax.
Project: Build and deploy your own "Link in Bio" website from scratch using AI coding assistants.
It's incredibly easy to make a lifelike digital clone of someone. We'll prove it by doing exactly that - then learn how to spot fakes.
Project: Create a deepfake of yourself, then analyze the forensic markers that prove it's fake.
Feed large datasets into an LLM to find trends. Use real data to identify ways to improve your neighborhood or school.
Project: Develop a unique proposal to improve your community based on actual data analysis.
Present your final project to the class. Based on your Week 7 proposal, build and demonstrate a solution using multiple AI tools.
Requirement: Your solution must incorporate at least 2 different AI tools working together.
Join a cohort of students learning practical AI skills that will set them apart in college applications and beyond.
Real feedback from students who completed the program.
"I thought I knew AI because I used ChatGPT. This course showed me I was barely scratching the surface. The College Counselor Agent I built is something I still use every day."
"Every class we built something. I deployed my first website in Week 5 and now I'm building tools for my robotics club. The deepfake week was wild - learned so much about media literacy."
"My Demo Day project analyzing local traffic data became a centerpiece of my college application. Admissions officers loved that I could talk about real technical work, not just theory."
