Classes 10-12
Agentic AI Builder
“I can build AI systems that search, reason, remember and use tools.”
Your teen builds the most advanced kind of AI software there is, agents that plan, use tools and act, and deploys their own.
How the year runs
- Length
- 16 weeks
- Live sessions
- 32, with a mentor
- Marked work
- Practicals, with written feedback
- Ends with
- Build Your Own AI Agent
- Parents see
- Attendance, marks and feedback
An Alpha Plus plan for your child's class already opens this program's self-paced material. Enrolling adds the live part. What a year costs
What your child walks out with
5 finished pieces of work, built one at a time and reviewed by a mentor. Not exercises: things that run, that they can open and show you.
Screens are drawn to show the shape of each build, not one student's work. Finished projects live in your child's own portfolio, which you can open from the parent dashboard.

12 modules, across 32 live sessions. Concepts are introduced when a project needs them.

| 15 | Security and privacy review of your own system | 90m | 45m | 60m |
| 16 | Capstone defence: an evaluated system and its failures | 90m | 30m | 60m |
What gets marked
3 assessed pieces of work. Everything else is practice.
- Answers cite the passage they came from
- It declines when the source does not contain the answer
- A measured baseline exists to compare against
- Every step is traceable after the fact
- At least one action requires a human approval
- The loop has a stopping condition that has been tested
- Evaluation results are reported including the failures
- There is a cost cap and evidence it holds
- The learner defends a design decision under questioning
Optional extras: A second tool, added under the same approval rules, A monitoring dashboard for the trace data, A written incident report for a failure you caused deliberately
How it is marked
Automatic checks, AI suggestions and a mentor's decision are recorded separately, and a mark can be revised after feedback or appealed.
- Functionality and accuracy35%
- Reasoning30%
- Testing and iteration20%
- Communication and responsible use15%
How marking works is the same across every program.
Before week one
Checked before week 1. A learner who does not pass is offered Young AI Engineer first. Multi-agent work and MCP are extensions of this programme, not its entry point.
What is checked
- Write Python that calls an API and handles an error response
- Explain what a test proves and what it does not
Assumes your child can write Python and has worked with a model or an API. Multi-agent work is an extension of this programme, not its entry point.
What your child needs
Said up front, because a laptop requirement discovered in week three is too late to discover it.
Prior knowledge
Comfortable with basic Python, or completion of Young AI Engineer.
Equipment
- Laptop
- 8GB+ RAM recommended
- Developer tooling (guided setup)
- Stable internet
Tools they will use
Every program runs the same way — learn it, build it, get it marked, with what you see as a parent the same throughout.
Where this goes
One year of nine, and it is built to continue
Alpha Euron runs from Class 4 to Class 12. Each program assumes what the one before it taught and hands over to the one after it, so a child who starts in Class 4 finishes school having built for nine years rather than having taken nine unrelated courses.
- AI Creator LabClasses 4-6 · 12 weeks
- Coding & AI BuilderClasses 6-8 · 16 weeks
- Young AI EngineerClasses 8-10 · 16 weeks
- Agentic AI BuilderClasses 10-12 · 16 weeksThis year
This is the last year on the ladder. From Class 8 a student can also carry their Alpha work across to the Euron platform, where the same account continues into adult courses and projects.
What they keep when it ends
A portfolio that is theirs
Every reviewed build stays in their account, openable and shareable, after the year ends.
A certificate that can be checked
Issued on completion with a number anyone can verify on this site, without a login.
Demo Day, in front of people
They present the capstone and answer questions on it. Most children have never done that.
The next year, already mapped
Each program ends where the next one starts, so nothing is repeated and nothing is skipped.

Ready when your child is
The first class is free and includes a small hands-on project. Enrol whenever you are ready; the price is ₹19,999 for the whole program.
