Program overview
The Graduate Certificate - Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (Co-op) (AIM1) is a 2 year program at Fanshawe College’s London campus.
The AI and machine learning graduate certificate runs a full two years with co-op โ Python, model development, MLOps and applied projects deployed rather than merely submitted. The format is strategic: two years of an eligible technology field supports the full three-year PGWP, while the co-op supplies the Canadian experience AI employers screen for.
Nearly six decades of employer-shaped programming show in Fanshawe’s co-op scale and research standing, while London prices housing, transit and part-time work for its enormous student population.
Field of study: CIP 11.0102 (Artificial intelligence and machine learning). Two eligible academic years support the full three-year permit; verify the program’s listing and IRCC’s current policy at application time.
