AI-Powered Software Development
Bootcamp

Learn to direct AI coding agents the way an engineering lead directs a team. No technical background required.

The Shift

This Isn't Vibe Coding. It's Engineering.

Vibe coding gets you a demo. This bootcamp teaches AI-powered engineering: the process that gets you working software. No coding background assumed.

Two Saturdays. Four apps built and deployed, the last one your own idea. You come back from summer with a skill you use immediately.

Curriculum

What You'll Build

Two Saturdays in August. Come back from summer able to build and ship real software.

Session 01

From Idea to Build Plan

Turn an idea into a design brief and screen plan an AI agent can build from.

You'll be able to

Take any idea, yours or your team's, and produce the plan an AI agent needs to build it properly.

Session 02

Your First Builds, Deployed

Direct Claude Code through staged builds and deploy your first two apps the same day.

You'll be able to

Direct an AI coding agent through a complete build and put working apps live, on your own.

Session 03

Security, Testing, and Trust

Test, secure, and penetration-test your own apps the way professional teams do.

You'll be able to

Test and secure your own applications before anyone else finds the gaps for you.

Session 04

Your Own Product, End to End

Take your own idea from a blank page to a live, deployed product.

You'll be able to

Start from nothing and take your own idea to a deployed product, without waiting on a developer.

How This Works

How This Works

01

Engineering, Not Vibe Coding

Every build runs through the checkpoints professional teams use: a design brief before any code, gates that verify each stage, testing and security checks before deployment. The AI writes the code. The process is what makes it software. Every part of it is taught from zero.

02

Repetition Until It's Yours

You build four applications, not one. Two guided builds on the first Saturday, a solo build between sessions with support when you need it, and your own idea on the second Saturday. By the end, the process isn't something you watched. It's something you've done four times.

03

Small Groups, Direct Support

Sessions are small and instructor-led, and the group moves through the same build stages together. When a build stalls, support is immediate and live, not a recording you replay alone at midnight. No one falls behind, and no one is left to debug a stuck build by themselves.

Who This Is For

Who This Is For

You Have an Idea

You Have an Idea

It has been sitting in your notes for months, maybe years. You know the industry and the problem better than most developers ever will. You don't need a co-founder, an agency, or funding. You need a first version. By the second Saturday, you will have built it yourself.

You See the Tool Your Team Needs

You See the Tool Your Team Needs

The messy spreadsheet, the report assembled by hand, the approvals running through WhatsApp. You understand the problem better than anyone, and IT's queue is six months long. You know what the fix should look like. This bootcamp makes you the person who finally ships it.

You Want the Skill Itself

You Want the Skill Itself

AI Engineer is one of the most in-demand roles in tech, and nobody grows into it by prompting. They grow into it by building. You don't need to become a programmer first. You need the foundation: directing AI agents, running a real process, shipping work you can point to.

In Their Words

What Graduates Say

As a non-technical person, I wasn't sure what to expect from the AI for Software Development Course, but in just five days I went from knowing nothing about app development to walking away with a fully built app. The experience far exceeded what I imagined to be possible and will have a significant impact on how I grow my business.

Lynne Meyer

Lynne Meyer

Founder, The People Strategy

I had previously paid developers AED 35,000 to build an app for me that never worked. In the AI for Software Development program, I built it within 5 days, exactly the way I wanted. Someone actually offered to buy the app from me two weeks later!

Ragid Khader

Ragid Khader

Lead Solutions Architect, NYUAD

As a founder leading a tech company, I realized that vision without technical execution has a ceiling. After Saqr Academy, I don't just lead teams. I can now understand, design, and build systems with AI. It's already impacting how we develop products: more speed, better architecture, and smarter decisions.

CEO, Progressia

I completed the AI for Software Development program at Saqr Academy in January 2026. Fantastic experience! Very hands-on, well structured, and focused on real-world use cases. Highly recommended.
