From software developer to AI engineer, week by week

Tell us your stack, what you already know and the hours you have. Get a dated plan that skips what you know, builds one portfolio project as you go, and drops each week into your calendar.

How the plan is built

Modules. Twelve modules from Python to interview preparation; your target adds or removes some (enterprise integration for FDEs, bringing AI to your team for senior developers). Modules you already know are skipped or shortened to a refresher.

Weeks. Module hours are laid end to end and cut into weeks of the hours you chose, so a module can share a week with the next one. Hours are planning estimates of focused learning and building.

One project. Every module adds to the same project, a support copilot, so you finish with one well-built portfolio piece rather than many unfinished demos.

Library names are examples current in 2026, not endorsements. Program facts come from the program pages and can change.
