AI Engineering
In 21 weeks you'll learn to build LLM-powered applications, integrate them into backends with FastAPI, and ship them to the cloud with Docker, applying solid deployment, monitoring, and security practices.
Same syllabus as the AI Engineering bootcamp, but one-on-one. First we book a call: there we pick the day and time of your weekly session together, and we work through the 21 units on that schedule. Every submission is reviewed with you, on your own code, in that session. No waiting for a cohort to open, and if a week doesn't work, we reschedule.
How it starts
You book a call and we set your schedule
Investment
Installment payments
One payment of $1,700 USD, or 6 monthly payments of $284. We'll go over it on the call.
Individual vs. group
Same syllabus, two ways to take it
Identical content, identical certificate, and both meet every week. What changes is who is in the call and who reviews your work.

Curriculum
What you'll learn
Across 21 modules you'll learn to build production-ready LLM applications, from AI Engineering fundamentals to real cloud deployment, with RAG, tool use, monitoring, and security.
Phase 1: AI Engineering Fundamentals
Weeks 1-6Phase 2: RAG & Evaluation
Weeks 7-13Phase 3: Production
Weeks 14-21Who it's for
Is this bootcamp for you?
The individual program is for anyone who can't — or won't — wait for the next cohort.
Devs with a job and a broken calendar
You already code, but a fixed weekly slot doesn't work. Here you set your own session dates.
People who won't wait
The next cohort opens months from now. Here you don't wait: we book a call, set your slot, and get going.
People who need review on THEIR code
Not a generic syllabus: guidance on your project, your decisions and your mistakes.
What's included
Everything you get
All the bootcamp content, plus the kind of support that only fits in a one-on-one.
One 1:1 session every week
The group bootcamp meets every week with everyone and has no individual sessions. Here that weekly hour is yours alone.
- 21 individual 30-minute sessions, one per week, at a time we agree on.
- Every submission reviewed live, on your code — not a generic comment.
- Each session's recording is saved in your account — only you can see it.
- Written agreements after every session: what's next and by when.
Your schedule, picked with you
You don't join a group's calendar: we agree on yours in the first call.
- We start as soon as we agree on the schedule, with no cohort to wait for.
- 6 months of access, counted from YOUR start date.
- If a week gets busy you don't fall behind — the syllabus waits for you.
- All 21 units of AI Engineering, with the full recorded material.
The same bootcamp content
Nothing trimmed: the complete syllabus, its guides and its certificate.
- Complete LLMs, RAG, agents, evaluation and production deployment syllabus.
- Companion guides from the ecosystem, with permanent access.
- Certificate on completion, same as the cohort bootcamp.

FAQ
Everything you need to know
How is this different from the group bootcamp?
The syllabus is the same, and both meet every week. What changes is who is in the room and what gets reviewed: the group bootcamp meets with the whole group and has no one-on-one sessions. In the individual one that hour is yours alone — 21 private sessions where we go through your code and your submissions. And you don't wait for a cohort: we book a call, pick your weekly slot, and get going.
What are the minimum requirements?
You need a programming foundation in Python or JavaScript and basic knowledge of how APIs work. No prior AI experience or advanced math background is required.
Are the live sessions recorded?
Yes. All live sessions are recorded and edited, and you can watch them from your dashboard on NIEVA.
Are our 1:1 sessions recorded?
Yes. Every session is recorded and saved in your account, and only you can watch it. Nobody else — no other students, no future cohorts — has access to them.
What if I can't make the date we agreed on?
We reschedule it. There's no group waiting for you and no class to miss: your 21 sessions fit around your availability across the 6 months.
Is it enough to get a job in AI?
We don't promise employment, and that's intentional. What we do promise is that you'll finish with real deployed projects, direct feedback, and a portfolio you can show. We've seen students use it to change careers, get promotions, and build their own products.
What if I can't attend a live session?
No problem. You'll be able to watch the recording, download the materials, and keep pace with the group. You'll also have access to the support channel to resolve questions.
Can I access the materials after finishing the bootcamp?
Yes. You'll have access to the guides, recordings, and resources for 1 additional year after finishing the bootcamp, as long as all invoices are paid if you chose the payment plan.
Will I get feedback on my deliverables?
Yes. You'll receive general feedback on your progress and your final project through the bootcamp's messaging channel.
