What is the Work-Integrated AI Engineering Immersive?

The Work-Integrated AI Engineering Immersive is a paid apprenticeship program where you learn AI engineering while earning income through real production work. It's 100% online and comes in two pacing options:

AI Engineering Immersive (18 months) Built for learners without prior software engineering experience. You'll spend the first four months building full-stack software engineering fundamentals, then move into AI and data science coursework alongside your apprenticeship starting in Month 5.

  • Tuition: $29,900
  • Bletchley Scholarship: $10,400
  • Your tuition commitment: $19,500
  • Apprenticeship earnings: ~$19,500
  • Program cost: $0

Accelerated AI Engineering Immersive (14 months) Built for engineers who already have production coding experience. Your apprenticeship starts Day 1 alongside the AI coursework.

  • Tuition: $14,900
  • Bletchley Scholarship: $3,000
  • Your tuition commitment: $11,900
  • Apprenticeship earnings: ~$26,000
  • You come out $14,100 ahead

The apprenticeship is ~20 hours/week in a production-aligned environment, supervised by a workplace supervisor. Flatiron handles employer matching — you don't need to find your own placement.

Seats are limited and competitive. To see whether the Immersive or Accelerated track is the better fit, the best next step is a conversation with admissions. Apply at https://work-study.flatironschool.com/
