Book a free readiness session or take the self-check, create your account and complete the 20–25 minute application (multiple-choice questions and a short video answer, one attempt), then have a conversation with Juily or JB. Offers include your fee after credits and scholarship.

What is the free AI readiness session?

2 hours at the studio, for up to 16 people, on Saturdays: 21 Nov, 28 Nov, 5 Dec and 12 Dec 2026. You try two hands-on stations, leave with your own AI capability map, and see the full module plan.

How are people selected?

Selection is by fit, not first come, first served. It looks at how you think, not your degree. We look at clarity, curiosity, problem-solving and commitment.

Can I do it alongside a job or college?

Some people manage it with flexible work or study. A full-time job usually makes it hard because studio sessions are in person on weekdays. Talk it through at a readiness session or ask SIA in the chat.
