Track Details
Three Tracks. Full Intensity Tables. No Surprises.
Cold Start, Hot Work and Tempering. Each track description includes the weekly hour count, assessment load and what you will have when it ends. Read before you enrol.

How the Tracks Are Structured
Intensity Table First
Every track shows weekly hours and assessment weeks before you enrol. You read the table, then decide.
Sequential Standards
Cold Start's exit standard matches Hot Work's entry standard. You can move between tracks without gap-filling.
Staffed Support
Cohort channels are staffed weekday evenings when participants are typically studying. Not a bot — a person.
Specific Records
Completion records state content, hours and assessment outcomes in enough detail to be referenced professionally.

Cold Start: Foundations
For people beginning from nothing. Python, the command line, version control, data handling and enough statistics to read a result honestly. Taught in the evenings at a pace that assumes a full working day beforehand.
This track does not assume prior coding experience. It does assume you can install software, follow written instructions and set aside seven hours across the week. The weekly breakdown is available on the intensity table before you pay.
What the Track Covers
Python basics and the command line
Version control and project structure
Data handling and tabular data operations
Statistics fundamentals and reading model output
- Weekly exercises with written feedback
- Recorded library — every session available after 24 hours
- Staffed cohort channel (weekday evenings)
- Twice-weekly office hours
- Written record of course completion

Hot Work: Applied Model Development
A sixteen-week track through model architectures, training loops, fine-tuning, evaluation design and the engineering that surrounds them. The intensity table is published before enrolment so nobody is surprised by the load.
Twelve hours a week including two live sessions. This is a meaningful commitment alongside a full-time job. People who complete it do so because they read the intensity table, cleared room in their schedule and treated the track like the second job it is during those sixteen weeks.
What the Track Covers
Model architectures and how design choices affect behaviour
Training loops, loss functions and debugging training runs
Fine-tuning approaches and evaluation design
Production engineering: serving, monitoring and iteration
- Four assessed projects with tutor code review
- GPU credits included — train on real infrastructure
- Architecture clinics — four sessions addressing design tradeoffs
- Staffed cohort channel and recorded library
- Written record of course completion
Track Fee
RM 1,880
WS-003
Tempering: Capstone & Career Workshops
A twenty-four week programme ending in one shipped system, one written technical report and one recorded defence. Weekly mentoring from a practising engineer, fortnightly cohort review, and workshops on technical writing, portfolio construction and interview practice.
This track is for people who intend to move into roles where AI engineering is a significant part of the job. By the end you have a deployed system with a hosted demo page, a written record of what you built and why, and a defence recording you can share.
What the Track Covers
Project scoping, technical specification and design
Build phase — weekly mentoring, fortnightly cohort review
Technical writing, portfolio construction and interview workshops
Deployment, documentation and recorded defence
- Cloud credits — deploy without personal infrastructure cost
- Hosted demonstration page included
- Alumni network introductions upon completion
- Continuing forum access post-completion
- Written record of course completion

RM 4,070

Start with Cold Start if…
Python is unfamiliar territory. You have seven hours per week and want to be able to read and write code confidently at the end of two months.
Start with Hot Work if…
You can write Python. You want to understand model training and end up with four assessed projects and a working knowledge of production engineering decisions.
Start with Tempering if…
You have the engineering foundations and want to end with something you built, documented and can demonstrate to a future employer or client.
Standards Across All Tracks
How We Run the Programme
Privacy and Data Security
Participant information is stored on secured infrastructure. Enrolment data is not shared with third parties. Full details in our Privacy Policy.
Completion and Progress Tracking
Cohort coordinators track submitted work and flag participants who are falling behind before the situation becomes unrecoverable. We contact you, not the other way around.
Curriculum Refresh Cycle
Track content is reviewed between cohorts. Frameworks and tooling referenced in exercises are updated when major version changes affect the teaching material.
Support Response Standards
Cohort channel questions posted during weekday evenings receive a response within four hours. Weekend questions are addressed on the next working day morning.
Terms and Enrolment Clarity
Enrolment terms, fees and what is included per track are documented before payment. No items appear on invoices that were not listed in the track description.
Tools Panel — What You Will Need
Each track publishes a static tools list before enrolment: specific software, versions and system requirements. No surprises mid-track about needing a different tool or operating system.
