AI Saturdays Online brings students, mentors and learning materials together through a practical, participatory approach.
How does the programme work?
Code 2 Learn
The first six Saturdays of the programme focus on…
Concepts
09:00–11:00
During the first half of the programme, we learn the foundations of machine learning or deep learning.
Coffee break
11:00–11:30
Exercises
11:30–13:00
We follow a top-down approach to learning through practical exercises. To get started, you'll need some knowledge of Python and data science libraries.
Build 2 Learn
The final Saturdays of the programme focus on…
Teamwork
09:00–11:00
In the second half of the programme, we build prototypes. Using a dataset and a model of your choice, your team explores how AI could address a real problem with social impact.
Coffee break
11:00–11:30
Mentoring
11:30–13:00
A mentor supports your team throughout the project. At the end, you share an explanatory article, an online demo and a Demo Day presentation.
What does the programme cover?
This outline summarises the programme content. Group challenges and the final project put it into practice. The course is in Spanish, but there are teaching resources in English.
Learn together
AI Saturdays helps you get started in AI or build on your skills by creating projects together.
- Build practical AI experience through challenges and mentoring.
- Join an active community and learn through hands-on work throughout the programme.
- Develop data science skills and practical experience to support your professional journey.
The AI Saturdays experience
AI Saturdays has three stages: learning machine learning or deep learning techniques, building a project with social impact, and sharing it with the community at Demo Day.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Are there different levels?
Yes. There are two levels: machine learning and deep learning. The deep learning track requires prior knowledge of machine learning, and both tracks require intermediate Python skills.
Mentors help you choose a suitable track during code2learn.
How do I know what my level is?
You can take these tests from DataCamp to get a sense of your Python and data science skills. Start with the machine learning track if you have not worked with it before.
What are we going to do every Saturday?
During the week, you study and practise the material. On Saturdays, we review it, answer questions and work on group challenges to put it into practice.
Can I ask questions during the week?
Ask questions in the community forums and get support from fellow students and mentors.
Who are the mentors?
Mentors bring professional AI experience and belong to different Saturdays.AI communities.
What do the projects consist of?
The final project lets your team apply what you have learned to a social challenge of your choice and explore a possible AI solution.
Projects are shared as open source, together with an explanatory article, in their state on presentation day. You can continue developing them after the course.
Where can I see projects from other editions?
You can explore our GitHub repository and our page on Medium.
What makes AI Saturdays different from other programs?
Past participants can tell you about the experience first-hand.
The programme combines weekly challenges, contact with mentors and a final project. It helps you connect knowledge with practice and share what you have learned.
Accounts from previous editions highlight learning as a team, practical experience and the broader perspective the programme provides.
Where does the name AI Saturdays come from?
In 2018, a group of friends from different fields wanted to learn AI together and put it into practice. Saturday was the day we could meet. We started with an event in Barcelona, followed by communities in Ecuador, Monterrey, Madrid and elsewhere. That experience shaped our approach to learning as a community.
What if I have any more questions?
