APPLICATIONS CLOSE SEPTEMBER 30
Time is running out to apply to participate in the Mark Cuban Foundation Artificial Intelligence (AI) Bootcamp hosted by Quizlet in Denver. Applications for the no-cost bootcamp are closing September 30.
The Mark Cuban Foundation, in partnership with Quizlet, is bringing the only artificial intelligence (AI) camp of its kind, free of charge, to high school students in Denver. With a custom and highly-relevant curriculum focused on teaching students about the latest developments in the world of AI and Generative AI, the camp will provide the tools to make these technologies work for them and promises to educate, inspire and fuel the next generation of AI professionals.
The program aims to provide students with a foundational understanding of artificial intelligence and its applications to future careers. Students can select from six tracks: healthcare, arts and entertainment, business and entrepreneurship, computer science, sports science, or education and career readiness. Driven by the belief that fostering interest in AI at a young age is crucial for preparing the next generation for their future, the AI Bootcamps are introductory and accessible to students in 9-12 grade with an interest in technology. Students do not need any familiarity with computer science or programming to attend.
This free AI Bootcamp is hosted for underserved high school students with a transparent focus on recruiting girls, students of color, first generation college students, and those from low to moderate income households. The AI Bootcamp Program provides students with lunch and a snack, transportation assistance, and technology equipment during bootcamp.
“As AI continues to become an undeniable force in all of our lives, it’s crucial that we open the door to this knowledge, especially to young people who want to explore it,” said Mark Cuban, founder. “While technology expands and becomes more advanced, it becomes more critical that we ensure our students are prepared when they apply for schools or jobs in the future. Thanks to our work with Quizlet, the bootcamp will offer an avenue to explore this fascinating field of technology to any student, no matter their means.”
This year’s bootcamp, taking place in Denver on November 1st, 8th, and 15th is hosted and staffed by Quizlet, an online learning platform and mobile app that helps students study more effectively through interactive tools like digital flashcards, adaptive quizzes, and collaborative games.
Quizlet is one of more than 25 host companies selected to host camps across the U.S.
“Quizlet is dedicated to advancing and reshaping education through AI innovation. By partnering with the Mark Cuban Foundation AI Bootcamp, we are helping foster a foundational understanding of AI among students—a skill we believe will be critical for future success,” said Sowmya Subramanian, Chief Technology Officer at Quizlet. “Through our AI-powered study tools and this partnership, we aim to make AI learning accessible and engaging, and are eager to see how participants apply their new knowledge both in school and beyond.”
