Six months is recommended, but you can complete the program at your own pace.

Is the 3-month internship guaranteed upon completion?

The internship is 100% guaranteed for all the students who do the work, study hard, and complete the program. We provide you with an internship at a robotics company, but we want to send people who have taken the course seriously.

Is the internship paid?

The payment for internships varies based on the company policies. Some companies offer compensation, while others may not. It is important to note that we do not interfere in the company’s decision regarding payment.

Where is the internship? Online or offline?

Internships are remote and in-person, depending on your location and other factors. You will discuss and agree on the internship details with your mentor.

Can I choose the internship location?

We will select the best internship opportunity based on your location, skills, and preferences. You will then discuss and agree on the internship details with your mentor.

Is there any contract we need to sign before enrolling in the Masterclass?

Before enrolling and paying, we will ask you to sign a Masterclass License Agreement that explains your rights and obligations.
