What is a Certified Graduate?

AI Makerspace Graduates are Today's AI Engineers Leading the Way

 

Certified AI Engineers are normal people, just like you.

They hail different backgrounds, industries, and skillsets well beyond tech. Some currently work at at the most well-known companies in the world, and others simply live right next door and have regular day jobs. Some have started their next chapter, and others are still aspiring to do so.

Part of what AI Makerspace encourages you to embrace from Day 1 is your own personal career journey.

 

What are you aiming at 🎯?

Andres Rubio Del Saz

Top energy in the sessions. Good overview of landscape

Michael Ellis

Great boot camp. Alot of great information is packaged up and presented clearly. You will feel like you are drinking from a fire hose. Great community on discord. Only recommend this class if you are in a technical role as it is intense.

Allan Tan

Great classes! I enjoyed the hands on exercises. They really make sure students are accountable to their homework and get things done. The demo day was fantastic... it pushed me to my limits... but all worth it! Thank you Dr Greg and The Wiz!!

Sahar Nesaei, Ph.D.

You'll find a supportive network of individuals dedicated to building, innovating, and sharing groundbreaking work. I started with sporadic knowledge of LLM, AI, and perhaps a little about RAG and Finetuning, but I ended up creating MentalMindBot!

Peter Dudka

Hands down one of the best AI programs out there and truly one of the few that shows you how to *actually build* an AI-native product (i.e. not just string together a prototype using some prompt engineering and some off the shelf saas tools). Vibes for the live sessions are also fantastic!

Marko Pavišić

This has been one of the best learning experiences in my life. The delivery, organization, hands-on work, motivation, and the community are all beyond compare. If you need to significantly level up your practical AI/LLM engineering skills, look no further.

Ismael Gonzalez

I had to dedicate time. I had to present two projects per week. I had to present those projects like I was an expert. As projects and challenges proceeded, I started gaining more confidence. I can now explain to anyone who asks me how to build AI applications what to do. If you want to go through the 10 hardest weeks of your life, the return on investment for that will be huge.

Can Temizyurek

I want to thank Dr. Greg, The Wiz, and the entire AIM team. None of my projects like PromptLab and OpenEvals would have been possible without the course and the Build, Ship, and Share mentality. Simply sharing what I’ve built on X helped the framework gain visibility from thought leaders in the Vercel AI SDK and Typescript developer communities, and opened doors for new opportunities. Taking this class has truly changed my life.
