AI4LL Ignite 2026 summer program

Free online program for undergrad students interested in AI

Applications for the 2026 free AI4ALL Ignite summer program are now open.  It is a virtual career accelerator designed to prepare undergraduate students—particularly those from communities historically excluded from the tech industry—for professional roles in AI.

Over the summer, participants work in small teams to build a comprehensive AI portfolio project under the guidance of industry mentors, allowing them to apply technical skills to real-world problems. The program also provides career readiness training, including resume reviews, technical interview preparation, and direct networking opportunities with corporate recruiters.

In the program, which starts on May 12 and ends on October 15, students will:
  • Build an industry-relevant AI tech portfolio project with guidance from industry mentors
  • Learn Responsible AI through hands-on workshops and real-world discussions
  • Engage with industry professionals working at companies like OpenAI, Google, Capital One, and YouTube
Get more information and apply here. Early decision applications are due by March 9 and the final application deadline is April 13.
