Two structured programmes with 8 live sessions a month and real code review. Paid monthly, so you never hand over a lump sum on hope.
The programmes
8 weeks
Analysts and junior engineers moving into data engineering for ML teams.
24 weeks
Professionals who want to go from using AI tools to building and running AI systems.
Every month
Two sessions with Desmond every week, on your work — not a group webinar.
Written review on every assignment, the way a senior engineer reviews a pull request.
Stuck on Tuesday? Ask on Tuesday. Replies within one working day.
Projects live in your GitHub and are built to be shown to employers.
CV rewrite, LinkedIn review and mock interviews in your final weeks.
All self-paced courses included for as long as you are enrolled.
The monthly option
The same monthly plan for either programme. You pay at the start of each month and can pause between months if life gets in the way.

Questions
Plan for 8–10 hours: the 1:1 call plus assignments. Most mentees fit it around a full-time job.
No. You pay monthly — two payments for ML Data Engineering, six for 4 Levels of AI — and can pause between months.
For ML Data Engineering: basic Python or SQL. For 4 Levels of AI: nothing technical to begin with; Level 1 starts from zero.
No — nobody honest can promise that. What we do guarantee is a portfolio you can defend in an interview, and preparation for those interviews.
A small number each month so every call gets full attention. If the current intake is full, we will offer you the next start date.

A short application so we can check the programme fits. No payment until we have both agreed it does.
