How we teach

The Adaptiv Methodology.

We don't teach in theory. We teach by building — with AI as a working tool, not a crutch, and a real team waiting on your work.

01
Days 1–30 · Foundations

Concepts, theory & advanced knowledge

Structured, dense, and fast. You cover the fundamentals of your track plus the advanced material most programs save for year two — taught by practitioners, tested daily, and paced so nobody hides at the back of the room.

02
Days 31–70 · The working group

Attached to a live project

You're placed inside a small working group solving a real brief — a partner studio's product, an internal Adaptiv tool, a live client problem. No simulations. Deadlines are real, stakeholders are real, and the code or design you ship gets used.

03
Days 71–90 · Demo day

Build your own, pitch it as a startup

The working group ends and you go solo: scope, build and ship something of your own, then defend it in front of a room of mentors, employers and investors — exactly how a founder raises a first round.

Four principles, no exceptions.

Principle 01
Live projects, not case studies

Every brief has a real stakeholder waiting on the outcome.

Principle 02
AI-native from day one

You learn to direct AI as a collaborator, not lean on it to skip the thinking.

Principle 03
Ownership over instruction

Mentors set direction; you make the calls and own the outcome.

Principle 04
Pitch like a founder

Every cohort ends the way a startup does — in front of people who can say yes.
