1 · Overview
A focused AI/ML program designed from the ground up for the Indian non-tech learner — not retrofitted from a CS bootcamp. Continuously updated 2026 curriculum spans classical ML through GenAI, RAG, Agents and No-Code AI workflows. Three differentiators: zero-prerequisite onboarding with significant non-tech cohort representation, current full-stack curriculum, and dedicated placement infrastructure tuned for non-tech career profiles.
2 · Beginner accessibility
Python taught from 'what is a variable' upward. Math is intuition-first with visualisations and no calculus required. First deployable mini-project lands in Week 3–4. Significant non-tech cohort — peer questions mirror yours. 1:1 mentor access from mentors who themselves made non-tech-to-AI transitions. 12–18 hrs/week.
3 · Curriculum highlights
Python Foundations · Math Essentials (intuition-first) · Data Manipulation · Classical ML · Deep Learning (NNs, CNNs, RNNs, Transformers) · NLP · LLM Fundamentals (GPT, Claude, Llama, Mistral, Gemini) · Advanced Prompt Engineering · Embeddings & Vector DBs (Pinecone, Weaviate, Chroma) · RAG (basic → advanced) · Fine-Tuning (SFT, LoRA, QLoRA, DPO) · AI Agents (planning, memory, tool use, ReAct) · Multi-Agent Systems · Agent Frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK) · MCP & Tool Integration · No-Code AI (Make, Zapier AI, n8n, Bubble) · Evaluation & Guardrails · Production Deployment.
4 · Stack & what's lighter
Stack: Python, scikit-learn, TensorFlow/PyTorch, OpenAI API, Anthropic API, Hugging Face, LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, AutoGen, vector DBs, Make, Zapier AI, n8n. Quarterly curriculum refresh.
Lighter on: Nothing material — this is the most current curriculum in the comparison set.
5 · Portfolio & projects
8–10 deployable, recruiter-grade projects including Custom GenAI App, Prompt Engineering Library, RAG Knowledge Assistant, No-Code Workflow, AI Agent, Classical ML in your domain, NLP App, AI Product Case Study, the Domain-AI Bridge spike, and a self-designed Capstone. 1:1 GitHub README reviews, live deployment guidance (Streamlit / HF Spaces / Vercel) and 90-second interview narrative coaching.
6 · Placement outcomes
Entry CTC ₹5–15+ LPA with strong portfolios. Roles include Prompt Engineer, AI Product/Business Analyst, AI Operations, GenAI Workflow Designer, AI-Augmented Marketing/Finance Analyst, AI Implementation Specialist. Hiring across product startups, GCCs, Big-4 AI divisions and AI-first Indian startups. Time-to-placement: 2–4 months for engaged learners. Mocks tailored for non-tech (case-study + product thinking + portfolio walkthrough).
7 · Schedule, format & pricing
Live IST batches (weekend Sat–Sun 9 AM–12 PM) with recordings, 1:1 doubt clearance, flexible deadlines. Duration 7 months (~30 weeks). ₹87,000 inclusive of GST with EMI. No bond, no hidden costs.
