Admissions & Cost

Do I need technical experience or an ML degree?

No. You do not need to become a machine-learning engineer or have a computer-science degree. You need practical skills you can apply, and the right guidance and structure to build them. Beginners are welcome and start step by step.

How much does it cost?

The Open House is free to attend, with no payment required to explore what is included. Membership is one price that covers everything, and you choose how you pay: $199 a month month-to-month with cancel anytime, or $149 a month billed annually ($1,788 a year), which is our best value. It is the same full membership either way, the only difference is how you pay.

What is the free Open House?

A 90-minute live online session with demos, real student work, career pathways, and a Q&A. You will see exactly what is inside the membership, how members learn with Claude, and how to get started. See upcoming dates on our Events page.

Do you offer scholarships or financial support?

We are committed to keeping AI skills accessible and offer flexible options, including military support. The best place to ask about your situation is the free Open House or our admissions team. Contact us to learn more.

What is included in the membership, and are there extra course fees?

One membership includes everything, with no separate course fees and no per-course tuition. It covers the full build path, certification prep, a hands-on internship experience, and guided GitHub portfolio projects, all under the single price.

Are there any costs beyond the membership fee?

Yes, and we are upfront about it. On top of your membership you cover your own third-party tool costs, which Colaberry does not cover: an Anthropic subscription for Claude Code (about $20 a month) and any LLM API usage billed to your own key (most projects stay under $10 a month).

Do I have to pay to attend the Open House before I decide?

No. The Open House is free. You can come see the program first and decide afterward, with no payment required to explore what is included.

Is there an application or screening?

The best way to see if it is a fit is to attend the free Open House and talk with our admissions team. There are no prerequisite courses or certifications required before you join.

Do you offer team or employer plans?

Yes. Alongside the individual membership, teams and employers can license annual seats at $149 a month per seat ($1,788 per seat per year). A seat is transferable, so it stays with the company and can move between employees as roles change. Contact us for team and corporate pricing.

What is the difference between the $149 and $199 plans?

It is the same full membership, the only difference is how you pay. $199 a month is billed monthly, so you can cancel anytime. $149 a month is billed annually ($1,788 a year) and is the best value. Both plans include everything: the full build path, Anthropic certification prep, the internship experience, and the guided GitHub portfolio projects.
