Frequently Asked Questions

 We train kids and teens ages 8–17 who are curious, creative, and excited to learn how to use Artificial Intelligence to build games, apps, stories, websites, scientific solutions, and business ideas.
No prior experience is required—just imagination. (May accept younger age upon special request)

The AI Dive is a 4-month, instructor-led program where students learn by creating.
They work individually and in teams to build:

• Games & interactive stories
   
• Websites & simple app mockups
   
• Digital art & animation
   
• Scientific “Think Tank” projects
   
• Business & product concepts
   

Students learn problem-solving, teamwork, creativity, and how to use modern AI tools safely and effectively.

 Not exactly—this is AI-powered creation.
Students learn:

• Prompting strategy
   
• Creative thinking
   
• Design & storytelling
   
• Logic, structure, and world-building
   
• How to plan, build, test, and refine projects using AI
   

Coding may be introduced for curious students, but it is not required for success.

By the end of the AI Dive, students have:

• A completed portfolio of projects
   
• Hands-on experience using AI for creation
   
• Better communication & presentation skills
   
• Stronger critical thinking & teamwork abilities
   
• Insight into careers in technology, science, art, business, and design
   

Many will complete projects advanced enough to include on future school applications, internships, or early college prep.

 The AI Dive is priced competitively to remain accessible while providing high-quality instruction, professional-grade tools, and a structured learning environment.

• Tuition: $390 per month
   
• Meets twice per week
   
• Includes: all AI tools, supervised environment, equipment, and portfolio building
   

Final pricing will be set after community survey results.

No. We provide Academy-configured computers that keep the environment safe, focused, and training-ready.

Traditional programs teach software or robotics.

We teach real-world AI creation.
Kids learn how to use AI the way professionals do:

• To build
   
• To research
   
• To design
   
• To solve problems
   
• To pitch ideas
   
• To present projects
   

Our focus is not memorizing instructions—it’s thinking and creating with AI.

 Absolutely! Students gain early exposure to the fields shaping the future:

• AI development
   
• Software & game design
   
• Scientific modeling
   
• Digital art & animation
   
• Entrepreneurship
   
• UI/UX design
   
• Data & research workflows
   

The skills learned here prepare them for college-level thinking and many modern career paths.

The program runs:

• Twice per week, 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
   
• From March through June
   
• One optional extra night for presentations or special events
   

This schedule gives students enough consistency to grow while leaving room for school and extracurriculars.

 All projects follow a structured monthly theme:

1. Foundations & World-Building
    
2. Games, Websites & Apps
    
3. Think Tanks & Business Builders
    
4. Portfolio & Expo Night
    

This structure ensures students gain creative, technical, and communication skills in sequence.

Parents are welcome to attend the intro session and Expo Night.
Younger or special-needs students can have a supporting parent participate during certain activities. 

All students use Academy-controlled laptops with:

• Safe browsing restrictions
   
• Locked-down AI accounts
   
• Protected environments
   
• Supervised sessions
   

We emphasize responsible AI use, digital safety, and online awareness.

We are currently finalizing our location in Arlington, TN for the year 2026.
Details will be released in February but it will remain local!
