AI Institute

Once a month, on the first Monday, a new cohort begins.

Forty-eight seats across six tracks. One shared belief: AI is not coming. It is already in the room. The only question is whether you're fluent in it.

Quick answer

The NASCA AI Institute runs a new applied-AI cohort the first Monday of every month. Six tracks. Teachers, students, administrators, schools, college teams, individuals, share 48 seats. Two live sessions per week plus async work, six weeks total, ending with a NASCA × World STEM Federation co-branded certificate.

Tuition typically ranges USD 449 to USD 1,099 by region and track, with need-based scholarships for roughly 15% of every cohort.

Six tracks

One Institute. Six lanes. Pick yours.

Every cohort runs all six tracks in parallel, so a teacher, a student, an administrator, and a working professional can be in the same building, learning the same vocabulary, on the same Monday.

How live is 'live'?+

Two live sessions per week (90 minutes each) plus async work. All sessions are recorded; cohort runs across timezones with cohort-mates from your region.

Can my company / school sponsor a seat?+

Yes. We send GST/VAT invoices and a one-page sponsorship brief that most L&D teams approve same-day.

What if I miss a week?+

You keep cohort access for the rest of the calendar year and can resume in any future cohort at no extra cost.

Is there a refund window?+

Full refund within the first 7 days, no questions. After week one we credit you toward a future cohort if life happens.

The first Monday of next month is closer than you think.
