Has anyone done ai core skills bootcamp?

Hi,
I've just applied to the AI and data bootcamp course by AIcore which is supposedly fully funded by the government. I was just wondering if anyone else has managed to get a place or a response of some sort from AIcore?

I ask this because AIcore mentioned in a live webinar (which had an audience of around 700 members) that they only have 500 places for the government-funded program. However, apparently, after the webinar they planned on advertising the opportunity to over 10,000 viewers. Seeing as this is a program worth £7,222 being given away for free, I imagined all places for the program would be quickly taken within a day if not a few hours.

Surprisingly the program has been open now for almost 2 weeks. I just received a reminder to complete my application today and have now done so. However, I am concerned that this isn't a legitimate government-funded scheme as I feel like it has been open for far too long. Hence I'd like to know if there's been anyone who has got a place or has received any kind of response from them.

Hi I also applied for it today, the bootcamp does sound promising. As for the content and how it’ll get taught, I have no idea. Have they got back to you with any new information?

*Update* I have successfully landed a spot on the bootcamp, I will be studying DevOps. It took a little while to hear back and from speaking with the team they have strict entry requirements and they have confirmed my place is funded by the Department of Education through the Skills Bootcamp funding. Happy to answer any questions

Hey, congrats for getting a place. I’ve been confirmed a place for the devops program, and look to start in the next week or so. With regards to the projects, have they taught you how to put them on GitHub? So, future employers can have a look on. Also, Is there any support in trying to find jobs? Oh yeah and last thing, is it achievable you reckon doing it full time to complete it within 7 weeks? Edit::::: Oh and small tip, apply to jobs whilst you’re doing the bootcamp. Add it onto your cv with a timeframe estimate and get applying.

*Update* I've also got a place on the AI and data bootcamp course by AIcore. I joined on the Wed 6 Sept so I've been on the program for around 2 weeks now. They were quite quick to get back to me- offered me a place a day after I had applied.
The content seems to be well explained and there is prompt support available if you get stuck. I've already completed 1 or 2 projects that will look good for future employers. I've decided to specialize in data science so hopefully should be looking to get a job in that area once I've completed the programme.

I came across aicore which is a ai and data bootcamp, they are offering data courses fully funded by the government.

I am interested in their data analytics programme, anybody done this?

Thanks for sharing that. Did they get back to you in a matter of days or weeks?
