JOSA AI Bootcamp

Event thumbnail

Ready to start your AI engineering journey? JOSA AI Bootcamp 2026 is a project-oriented program designed to give aspiring AI engineers the right mix of theory and practice.

Over seven Saturdays, you'll build your way from AI fundamentals to production-ready systems. Sessions cover prompt engineering, RAG pipelines that ground AI in real data, autonomous agents, feedback loops for catching and fixing model failures, and fine-tuning open source models on domain-specific knowledge. Each day covers two sessions, and each session pairs focused theory with hands-on building.

Seats are limited. We're keeping cohorts small to ensure a high-quality, hands-on experience for everyone, so accepted participants are expected to attend a minimum of 6 out of 7 sessions.
