About the program

What makes it special

AI is shaping the world our kids are growing up in, and they deserve to understand it — not just use it. In this program children peek inside AI, train their own image and sound recognizers, build smart apps and chatbots and, as they get older, code real machine-learning projects in Python.

AI Detectives (9–10) find AI all around them and train their first models with Teachable Machine. AI Builders (11–12) combine Scratch with machine learning to make apps that see, hear and respond. AI Engineers (13–14) use Python to explore data, train classifiers and build computer-vision projects. Safety, fairness and critical thinking are part of every single month.

Kids never need personal accounts on public AI chat tools — we use kid-friendly, classroom-safe tools in live small groups of up to 6. Every level ends with a Demo Day presentation and a certificate.

Hands-on & project-based

Kids build something real in every single class.

Tiny classes

Max 6 kids per class so every child gets attention.

Clear pathway

Beginner → intermediate → advanced, one level at a time.

“Mia went from dreading math to asking for extra puzzles. Her school teacher noticed the difference in just two months.”
Sofia R.Parent of Mia, 10 · Florida, USA
“Zara trained her own plant-disease detector. The responsible-AI lessons were a big plus for us as parents.”
Aisha B.Parent of Zara, 13 · Ontario, Canada

Questions

Parents often ask…

Can’t find your answer? Our parent success team replies within a few hours.

Yes. Responsible use is built into every month — privacy, fairness and critical thinking — and students never need personal accounts on public AI chat tools.

Not for ages 9–12: AI Detectives and AI Builders use no-code and block-based tools. AI Engineers (13–14) learn the Python they need in their first month.

Training and testing AI models needs a little reading, reasoning and patience, so ages 9 and up get the most out of it. Younger children can start with Coding & Python or Game Design.

Small-group live classes have a maximum of 6 students, so every child gets individual attention.

Every class is recorded for your family, and we offer free make-up sessions so no one falls behind.
