The Hub's AI Cadetship program is in its fifth year and there’s never been a more perfect time for young talent to learn how to harness AI tools.
This year’s cadetship will run over 7 sessions: Weeks 3-9 in Term 3 on Wednesdays after school.
In this year’s program, Cadets will learn how to build AI apps using the very latest technology. Learning is hands-on and project-based, and will culminate in the cadets presenting their projects at the end of the program.
Along the way, Cadets will meet people in the Hub network that are building AI companies, and get exposure to some of the exciting career pathways and professional opportunities in the technology sector.
Cadets will gain practical skills that allow them to start offering useful services to others and potentially earn while still at high school.
With positions available for 20 AI Cadets, we're looking for Grade 10/11 students (we will also consider applications from exceptional Grade 9 students).
Ideal candidates will be:
The cadetship provides instruction and mentoring from industry experts and Cadet Alumni. You'll gain exposure to how these AI-enabled skillsets are being applied in industry, what it takes to hone those skills, and how to land a job or start a business. You'll learn what is expected of you should you pursue these pathways, and successful Cadets get to tap into the Hub's network to find work experience and internship opportunities.
After completing the program, successful Cadets become part of a growing community of alumni who have found their interest in tech or digital creativity and pursued those pathways at university.
