Traineeship overview

You will have 1-year of unlimited online access to complete the Traineeship.

The training program is broken down into 4 easy steps:

AI Engineer IT Career Switch
Step 2
Full-Stack AI Training + Internal exam

In this stage, you’ll dive into the essential modules that form the backbone of a career in AI engineering. You’ll develop hands-on expertise in key subjects including:

  • Python Programming

  • Data Handling & Processing

  • Machine Learning

  • Version Control with Git & GitHub

These subjects are taught through interactive lessons and practical exercises designed to solidify your understanding.

What sets this step apart is its strong focus on real-world application. Youโ€™ll complete a series of mini projects that challenge you to apply your new skills as you learn โ€” building both confidence and competence.

By the end of Step 2, youโ€™ll be well-prepared for the independent project work in Step 4. To mark your progress, youโ€™ll complete a short online multiple-choice exam to demonstrate your grasp of the material before advancing to Step 3.

AI Engineer IT Career Switch
Step 3
Official Exam

The AI-900: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals certification is designed for individuals seeking to validate their understanding of core artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) concepts, as well as their implementation through Microsoft Azure services. This certification covers the principles of AI, its real-world applications, and the key Azure AI tools used to bring intelligent solutions to life. Upon completion, participants will be prepared to sit the AI-900: Azure AI Fundamentals exam.

 

AI Engineer IT Career Switch
Step 4
Practical Projects

With your theory training and official exams complete, itโ€™s time to put your knowledge into action. You’ll be assigned two hands-on, industry-based projects by your personal tutor. These practical assignments are the most impactful part of your AI traineeship โ€” designed to demonstrate to employers that you have the real-world skills needed to thrive in a data science or AI role.

Each project is built around real-life scenarios, giving you the opportunity to apply everything youโ€™ve learned โ€” from data handling and machine learning to model deployment and version control.

Throughout this phase, you’ll receive ongoing one-on-one support from your dedicated tutor to guide you through any challenges and ensure your success. Once both projects are completed and officially approved, youโ€™ll have successfully finished your traineeship and be fully prepared to progress to the recruitment and job placement stage.

Course outline

Below you can find the description of each course that you will be studying in step-1 & 2 of the Traineeship. The combination courses is what gives our students the well-rounded knowledge needed to become job-ready.
Machine Learning Fundamentals

Build smart, self-improving systems.
Explore the core algorithms and principles behind machine learning. You’ll learn about supervised and unsupervised learning, model evaluation, and how to train predictive models using real-world datasets.

Python Programming for AI

Master the language of AI.
This module teaches you how to code with Python โ€” the most widely used language in artificial intelligence. You’ll learn key programming concepts, data structures, and libraries like NumPy and Pandas that are essential for building AI solutions.

Data Handling & Processing

Turn raw data into AI-ready insights.
Learn how to collect, clean, and prepare data for analysis. This module covers data wrangling, transformation techniques, and working with structured and unstructured data โ€” a critical step before building any machine learning model.
