What types of programs does Founderz offer?

Founderz offers a range of AI learning programs, from broad professional programs to specialized courses and professional programs, with a practical focus across areas including creativity, healthcare, finance, procurement and supply chain, productivity, marketing, human resources, project management and responsible AI.

What certification do I receive after completing a program?

Founderz programs include professional certification associated with the specific program. Many programs are developed in collaboration with Microsoft, and some also involve additional international partners. Check the individual program page for the exact credential awarded.

Are Founderz programs university degrees or master's degrees?

Founderz provides specialized professional education in artificial intelligence with a practical focus on real workplace needs. Unless a specific program explicitly states otherwise, Founderz programs are not university degrees or university master's programs. Learners receive the professional certification associated with the program they complete.

Do I need previous AI experience?

No. Founderz programs are designed so learners can begin without previous technical knowledge. Programs start with clear foundations and progress toward practical projects and real applications.

Are Founderz programs career-focused?

The content and projects are designed to help learners develop and demonstrate practical AI skills used in professional environments, with an emphasis on applied cases and workplace use.

Does Founderz offer training for companies and teams?

Yes. Founderz provides training for teams and organizations that want to use AI effectively in their work. Companies can contact hola@founderz.com so the team can review their goals, organizational needs and number of participants and recommend or design an appropriate training plan.

How are Founderz programs structured?

Programs combine recorded content, typically in short lessons of around 5 to 15 minutes, with practical projects and ongoing support. Founderz uses a learning-by-doing approach with applied exercises that learners can complete at their own pace.

How are learners assessed?

Assessment is based primarily on practical work and projects rather than traditional exams. Learners complete applied activities during the program and, where required, a final project that brings together the skills developed throughout the course.

Do I receive personalized feedback?

Yes. Founderz Fellows are AI learning assistants integrated into the Founderz learning environment. They provide support and feedback 24/7 so learners can continue progressing at their own pace.

Is the training online or is there an in-person component?

Programs are delivered online and are designed for flexible learning from anywhere. Founderz also organizes occasional in-person events. These are additional opportunities to keep learning, share experiences and connect with learners and faculty rather than required parts of the curriculum.

Does the learning approach work for both beginners and advanced learners?

Yes. Accessible content, practical projects and ongoing support allow beginners to build foundations while more experienced learners can go deeper into applied AI use cases.

When can I start a program?

Start dates depend on the program and enrollment window. Once enrolled, learners receive the information required to access the learning platform. Programs are designed for flexible progression and may also include live sessions, masterclasses and optional learning events.

How long will I have access to the program?

Access periods vary by program. Many Founderz programs provide 12 months of access to content, activities, projects and updates. Check the specific program page for the current access period.

Can I combine a Founderz program with work or other studies?

Yes. Founderz programs are designed around online, flexible learning so learners can progress around their professional or academic schedule.

How much do Founderz programs cost?

Prices depend on the program, edition and current enrollment terms. Check the relevant program page for the current price.

What payment methods are available?

Payment options may include credit or debit card, bank transfer and installment plans, depending on the program and market.

Can I pay in installments?

Yes. Founderz offers installment-payment options for eligible programs. Check the current financing information for the program and market you are interested in.

Does the price include all program content?

The program price includes the content and learning resources specified for that program during the stated access period, including the relevant modules, practical work, masterclasses, community access and learning support where applicable.

Can companies finance training for their teams?

Yes. Founderz offers company-specific plans based on the number of people being trained and the organization's objectives. Companies can contact hola@founderz.com for information on the options available.

Our origins

Founderz was founded in 2021, but the idea came a year earlier. In 2020, Anna Cejudo and Pau Garcia-Milà set off on a family journey around the world that was interrupted a few months later by the pandemic. As they continued working and learning remotely, they noticed something striking: technology was transforming how millions of people worked, while online education still looked much like it had a decade earlier.

Anna Cejudo

Pau Garcia-Milà

“The real revolution isn’t AI. It’s education.”

Anna often repeats this idea.

No technology changes the world simply by existing. Electricity did not transform society until people learned how to work with it, and that took decades. AI has reached millions of people in months. The difference is no longer access to the technology. It is having the education and judgment to use it well.

Microsoft and strategic partners

Founderz is a Microsoft Worldwide Training Partner. Together, we develop programs connected to the tools and technologies used every day by thousands of companies. See all our partners.

This partnership helps us keep our programs current and grounded in how professionals and companies actually work, because AI changes too quickly to be taught as a static discipline. Our wider ecosystem includes technology companies, universities, healthcare organizations and professional partners that contribute expertise to specific programs and projects.
