AI courses in Pune: what to look for, and how ours works.
Studio Incubator in Shivajinagar runs an in-person, 12-week Professional Certificate Programme in AI Product Design and Agentic AI. You learn to use AI professionally, build AI agents and RAG systems, and govern AI work, ending with a real AI product. No coding is needed. Cohort 1 starts 4 Jan 2027; launch fee from ₹1,20,000.
Five things to check before you join any AI course
- Do you build something real? Watching demos is not the same as building, testing and fixing an AI product yourself.
- Is evaluation taught? Knowing when AI is wrong (evals, guardrails, red teaming) is what makes people trustworthy with AI work.
- Who teaches? Look for faculty who deliver AI work for clients, not only teach it.
- Is there feedback in the room? Complex AI systems are learned faster with someone watching how you work.
- What proof do you leave with? A working product and a portfolio say more than a certificate on its own.
How the Studio Incubator programme works
The programme runs over 12 weeks and 320 hours in three levels: using AI like a professional, building AI products and agents, and leading and governing AI work. Alongside, you build one capstone product through eight gates, ending with a live board defence. Three studio mornings a week with faculty, plus a practice day, for twelve weeks.
It is taught by Juily Gite and Jitendra Bhavsar of Qquench, which has delivered 432+ projects over 25+ years for organisations worldwide, is ISO 9001, 27001 and 14001 certified, and delivered an agentic AI solution for a luxury hospitality client in 2022.
