Who This Program Is For

College Students

Any branch: CS, IT, AIML, AIDS, E&TC, Electronics, plus BCA, BSc, BCom and MBA. Start building a data career before you graduate.

Fresh Graduates

Turn your degree into a job-ready skill set with a structured six-month runway, a real portfolio and interview training.

Working Professionals

With 1 to 5 years of experience, move into analytics or data science with hands-on retraining and career acceleration support.

What You Need to Start

No prior coding experience required. Python is taught from first principles in Module 3.
Comfort with basic mathematics at 10th standard level. Statistics is taught from scratch.
A laptop for practice, though lab machines are available at every center.
Most importantly, the ability to attend full-time offline classes six days a week.

Who This Is Not For

This program is not a fit if you need weekend-only classes, if you are looking for a certificate without doing the project work, or if you want a guaranteed job offer in writing. We are honest about that in counselling rather than after you pay.

Learning Outcomes

What You Will Be Able to Do

Skills, not topics. This is what you should be able to demonstrate in an interview by the end.

Write SQL queries against real business databases, including joins and window functions
Build and publish Power BI dashboards that a manager can actually make decisions from
Clean, analyse and visualise messy real-world data in Python with Pandas
Frame a business question statistically and defend your reasoning in an interview
Train, evaluate and tune machine learning models, and explain their limitations honestly
Use ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot as professional tools rather than as shortcuts
Present a capstone project end to end, which is what most interviews actually test

Learning Journey

Your Six-Month Path, Step by Step

A clear roadmap from your first counselling call to a job-ready portfolio. Detailed modules follow below.

Two Ways to Attend

Same curriculum, same instructors, same fee. Pick whichever fits your city and your schedule.

Classroom, Nagpur

Full-time, in person, at Mate Square, Nandanvan or Sadar. Choose a morning batch (7:30 AM – 9:30 AM), an evening batch (6:30 PM – 8:30 PM), or a Full Day batch (11:30 AM – 4:30 PM, available for this program only). Daily mentor access, in-person doubt solving and a batch around you. Labs and extended hands-on practice time are available at the Mate Square center, useful if you can dedicate more time, especially for freshers.

See all three centers →

Live Online, across Maharashtra

Live instructor-led classes for students in Pune, Mumbai and elsewhere in Maharashtra. Timings suit working professionals. These are real classes with a fixed schedule and live doubt-solving, not a library of recordings you watch alone.

Batches run 3 days a week, 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM IST.

How a Typical Week Runs

Concept sessions
Mentor-led classroom teaching in small offline batches, with doubts solved the moment they appear rather than in a forum three days later.
Lab practice
Supervised hands-on time on real datasets and real codebases, because watching someone else type teaches very little.
Weekly build
Every module ends in something you made, reviewed by a mentor and added to your portfolio.
Career practice
Communication, group discussions and mock interviews run alongside the technical work from month one, rather than being bolted on at the end.

Certification

On successful completion, including capstone submission and a minimum 75% attendance requirement, you receive a Fireblaze AI School certificate issued by Fireblaze Technologies Private Limited. This is a NASSCOM partner program, so the curriculum is aligned to industry skill standards recognised across the Indian IT sector.
