AI-First Data Scientist Program

Foundation Model + Custom Solution Designer

Become the modern data scientist who blends classic ML with LLM hybrid solutions.

Classic 'data scientist' definition is outdated; no one trains foundation-model + custom-solution hybrids. Covers modern DS workflow (Polars, DuckDB), foundation model fine-tuning, sentence transformers, time series + LLM hybrid, causal inference + LLM, synthetic data generation and LLM-as-feature-extractor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do enrollment and participant selection work?

In the discovery call we map your team capability and define the right participant profile (role, level, prior knowledge). Standard packages serve 5-15 participants, corporate packages 15-40; larger groups run as multi-cohort schedules.

How is pricing structured?

Pricing depends on participant count, duration, customization depth, delivery model (on-site / hybrid / remote) and post-support scope. A custom quote is provided after discovery. Multi-year partnership discounts available.

Can the curriculum be customized for our use cases?

Yes. After discovery every program is tailored to your industry, regulatory framework (KVKK, BDDK, EU AI Act etc.), data structure, tech stack and target use cases. Labs can run on your existing systems or company data under NDA.

On-site or remote?

Both. Choose in-person (at your location — Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa, Antalya and other cities), fully online, or hybrid (online + condensed in-person).

Is post-training support included?

Standard package includes 30 days async support (Slack/Teams/Discord channel). Extended options: monthly follow-up sessions, code review support, mentorship package and quarterly business review.

Are certificates provided?

Yes — each participant receives a verifiable URL certificate, and the company gets a before/after capability report and training ROI dossier.
