What you will get from this programme
Everything you need to move into AI engineering roles
Recruiter ready AI portfolio
GitHub repos and demos showing real AI systems you have built: chatbots, RAG systems and agents that employers can review.
Real startup experience in AI
Documented experience shipping AI features with a real startup. You can talk about this experience in interviews and reference it on your CV.
Certificate and references
Certificate from The AI Internship plus references or recommendations from founders and mentors that show you have worked in AI, not just studied it.
Network and support for career moves
Access to mentors and alumni who are already working in AI related roles and can help guide your job search or promotion.
Who is this programme for?
The AI Internship is for people who want to get a job in AI engineering or move their career into AI. We support working professionals, university students and recent graduates who want real experience, not just another online course.
Working professionals
You have a full time job and want to transition into AI engineering or bring AI into your role. You need real projects and startup experience without quitting your job.
University students and recent graduates
You want your first role to be in AI, not generic software or something unrelated. You need production level AI projects, an internship and references that stand out in applications.
Career switchers
You come from fields like business, economics, consulting, product or data and want a clear, guided path into applied AI work with mentorship and real tasks.
This is not for people who just want a casual intro course. It is for people serious about moving into AI roles and willing to do the work.
Not sure if this fits your situation?
Book a free 20 minute strategy call and we will help you work out if this is the right way for you to move into AI.
