About course

The "Artificial Intelligence" course is a practical program for anyone who wants to understand AI technologies and learn how to apply them to solve real-world problems. During the training, students progressively master Python, data analysis using Pandas and NumPy, classical machine learning algorithms, deep neural networks, and generative AI. Dedicated modules cover computer vision, transformer architectures, and modern generative models. The program is suitable both for beginners with no programming experience and for those who want to systematically build their knowledge in AI and machine learning. Training is conducted online in real time and combines theory with practical assignments based on real data. The course concludes with a final project covering the full cycle of AI solution development — from data collection and analysis to model building and presentation. Upon completion, graduates receive the Junior AI Engineer qualification and are prepared to work with modern AI-tools.

Special condition

The student receives an educational grant in the amount of 400 000 KZT, provided that they pay the remaining course fee difference of 100 000 KZT. The student is required to complete the full course, successfully finish the final project, and pass the final assessment with a score of no less than 50%. In case of failure to meet these requirements, the student must reimburse the full cost of the course. If the student misses more than 30% of classes within a calendar month without a valid reason, they may be expelled and will also be required to repay the full tuition cost.

FAQ

What is the Tech Orda program?
- Tech Orda is a human capital development program in the field of IT. The program provides subsidized tunding for the training of IT specialists in private schools of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
Where will the selection of candidates for training take place?
- Acceptance and processing of applications will take place at the showcase of IT schools at astanahub.com portal.
What are the requirements for candidates?
- The basic requirements for candidates include citizenship of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the age limit from 18 to 45 years. Additional requirements depend on the IT-school / IT-company and the course you choose. It is mandatory to read all the conditions before applying for training.
How much does the training cost?
- The amount of funding per person is up to 500,000 KZT. If the training is conducted in an offline format, the program covers up to 500,000 KZT, and if the cost exceeds this amount, the student pays the difference. For online or hybrid training, the program covers up to 400,000 KZT, and if the cost is higher, the remaining amount is paid by the student. If the tuition fee is below the established limits (500,000 KZT for offline or 400,000 KZT for online/hybrid), the program covers it in full.
How long does the quota training under the Tech Orda program last?
- The training will take place from 6 months or more, depending on the Course and the IT-school you plan to enroll in.
How many IT schools participate in the program?
- The list of all IT schools is available on the showcase of IT schools at astanahub.com portal.
How many applications can I submit?
- Candidates can only apply for 5 (five) Participants of the Program.
How many scholarships/quotas can a candidate receive under the Program?
- The candidate can only study 1 (one) once within the framework of the Program. There is one exception: A student can get training in 2 (two) Courses during the duration of the Program, only provided that one takes Courses that are pre- and post-prerequisites to each other from the same Participant of the Program (IT school/IT company). For example, if you first study for a Junior Web Developer at School X in 2023 and then apply for a Middle Web Developer at the same school X in 2024.
Can a student who has completed a quota training under the Program in 2023-2024 apply again?
- A student can get training in 2 (two) Courses during the duration of the Program, only provided that one takes Courses that are pre- and post-prerequisites to each other from the same Participant of the Program (IT school/IT company).
If I studied with a Program Participant in 2023 (IT schools/IT companies), but was on the waiting list, can I apply now?
- Yes, you can. However, we recommend that you contact the Program Participant (where you have completed education) to confirm your status on the waiting list within the Program.
Is there an opportunity for a student to transfer from one IT school to another, which is also a Participant of the Tech Orda program?
- As soon as the candidate confirms his choice to apply for a grant at a certain IT-school, there is no possibility to transfer to another school. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you consider all available options before making a decision on accepting/rejecting a grant within the framework of the Program.
Should Candidates who have received a quota work out after training?
- No, such counter obligations are not provided for by Astana Hub. Other conditions may be regulated in the contract between the IT-school and the student.
Can I opt out of studying during the learning process? Is there a penalty if I don't complete the training?
