Professional Certificate in Building an AI Career
The real roles, the skills that get hired, and a portfolio that shows judgment.
Capstone: your AI project and career package
A documented AI project with its evaluation, plus a portfolio and interview prep.
Hands-on lab work.
Every step above is backed by real practice in Atlas, our simulated workbench. You do the work an employer would hand you, and you keep the artifacts as portfolio evidence.
Build and Evaluate an AI Assistant: Halcyon Labs
The gap between a demo and a system people can trust is retrieval, evaluation and guardrails, not a better model. This lab walks that gap: ground the assistant in real documents, prove with a test set whether it actually works, and decide honestly whether it is safe to ship.
Hands-on labs. A final exam & capstone. A real role.
You finish with a portfolio you can show, a cumulative exam, and the skills to land the AI Practitioner role.
