Learn
Computational thinking, Python foundations and an introduction to Artificial Intelligence.
8 weeks to learn, practice and build.
Ufumbuzi Labs Academy’s AI Powered Technology Foundations gives recent Form Six graduates a focused start. In Month 1 they learn how computers think, how to program with Python and where AI fits. In Month 2 they apply those skills and complete a project they can present.

LifetimeMentorship Access
Two months that can give them direction before university.
Your child does not need another long academic commitment. They need a clear first step: learn the foundations, practise them with a mentor and finish with something they can show.
Learn → Practice → Build
The first month builds the foundation. The second turns it into practical work.
Practice
Coding challenges, small programs and structured problem solving with real datasets.
Build
A guided mini project that each student tests, improves, documents and presents.
Month 1 · Learn the Foundations
Understand computers. Write code. Make sense of AI.
Think Like a Computer
Computational thinking, programming logic, algorithms and structured problem solving.
Learn Python Basics for Data Analysis
Python fundamentals, variables, conditions, loops, functions, collections and practical programs.
Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
AI, Machine Learning, Generative AI, responsible AI and how modern AI systems work.
Month 1 objective: Learn how computers think, learn how to program them and understand where AI fits.
Month 2 · Practice & Build
Use the foundations to solve real problems.
No additional major courses. Students spend the second month applying what they have learned.
Python Challenges
Write, test and debug small useful programs.
Work With Data
Explore real datasets, identify patterns and solve structured problems.
Guided Mini Project
Choose a problem and build a guided solution using Python and AI responsibly.
Improve & Present
Test, document, improve and present the completed project.
Tools such as GitHub are introduced when they help students build, document and share their work—not as separate theory-heavy courses.
Two live, mentor-led sessions every week.
A consistent rhythm keeps students learning, practising and receiving feedback throughout the program.
Guided Learning Sessions
- New concepts and demonstrations
- Questions and technical support
- Clear direction for independent practice
Practical Build Sessions
- Hands-on coding and challenges
- Project development and reviews
- Feedback, debugging and improvement

Frequently asked questions.
Does my child need previous technology experience?
No. The program begins with computational thinking and programming foundations, so no previous coding experience is required.
How long is the program and when are the live sessions?
The program runs for 8 weeks and includes 16 live mentor-led sessions. Two one-hour sessions are held each week—midweek and weekend.
What will students build?
Each student completes a guided mini project using the skills learned during the program. They test, improve, document and present the finished work.
How is the program delivered?
The full program is delivered online. Selected practical workshops, project reviews and mentorship activities may also be offered physically in Dar es Salaam where scheduled.
What does lifetime mentorship access mean?
Graduates receive continued access to the Academy alumni community, scheduled group mentorship, career guidance, opportunity sharing and community events. It does not mean unlimited private tutoring.
Is TZS 300,000 a monthly fee?
No. TZS 300,000 is the one-time launch fee for the complete 8-week program. The standard fee is TZS 350,000.
