We helped build Canada's first AI Graduate Certificate and its first polytechnic Master's in AI.
300+ graduates from Canada's first AI grad cert
the problem
Canada did not have a dedicated college AI graduate certificate or a polytechnic Master's in AI. Professionals needed a practical way into the field, and small businesses needed applied research support they could actually access.
before
- No AI graduate certificate across Canadian colleges
- No polytechnic-led Master's in AI in Canada
- No free, nationwide AI fundamentals course
- SMBs without access to applied AI research
after
- 300+ graduates from the Durham College AI Grad Cert
- Seneca's first-of-its-kind polytechnic Master's in AI
- eCampus Ontario AI Fundamentals: 7 free modules nationwide
- The AI Hub delivered 20+ applied research projects with small businesses
what we did
