The school of
Agentic AI for
high schoolers.

AI is becoming part of how people write software, analyze information, and conduct research. Starting now gives students time to understand its capabilities and limits through practice. They learn to break a problem into steps, work with code and evidence, and check results—habits they can carry into school projects, further study, and future technical work.

Yes: through an educational project, students can try the kinds of questions that interest them before committing to a major. A healthcare project practices source checking and clear explanations; a coding project practices issue triage and testing; a business project practices research and structured analysis. This is early exploration and skill-building, not professional qualification or a job-placement program.

A project can give a student specific work to discuss: the problem they chose, the code they wrote, what failed, and how they improved it. This can help them explain their curiosity and initiative in essays, interviews, or portfolios where accepted. Selective colleges also consider academic preparation and the rest of the application. STEMtiq does not promise an admissions advantage, acceptance, or college credit.

A hosted Agentic AI project they can demonstrate, the project code in GitHub, and a certificate after completing the program and final project. An industry AI mentor may award a merit-based letter of recommendation after assessing project quality, effort, and participation; the letter is not automatic. Their project includes documentation, tests, and an explanation of its limitations.

No prior coding or AI experience is required. The learning journey begins with agent foundations and guided practice. Students should be comfortable using a computer and following instructions. The weekend workshop is a beginner-friendly first build, and the free AI Lab introduces code in small, guided steps. Families can share their student's experience in the program application and discuss fit before enrollment.

Choose the 5 weeks Scholars Program for a project related to your student's interests, weekly instruction, mentor labs, and time to test and refine the work. Choose the weekend workshop for a focused Search AI Agent build across 5 live hours, with up to 10 students. The workshop is not a prerequisite. The free AI Lab is open for exploration at any time.

The program runs over 5 weeks: 10 live sessions and 25 hours in total. Meet every Saturday and Sunday for 2.5 hours each, 8:00–10:30 AM Pacific Time, with optional 1–2 hours of practice each week. Students bring questions to the live sessions and use mentor feedback to improve their projects. Choose a cohort and review every session date before applying; the published schedule includes holiday weekends.

Request a full tuition refund within 7 days of your cohort’s first live session. No questions asked. Email admissions@stemtiq.org with the student’s name and enrollment email within the 7-day window. No explanation is required. This guarantee applies to the Agentic AI Scholars Program; the weekend workshop has its own cancellation policy.

The free AI Lab has bite-sized lessons, visual agent demos, and code workspaces. No account or API key is needed. Students run real JavaScript; the model decisions and school records are authored simulations. They can explore an interest and get a feel for building before choosing a live program.
