SIWES Industrial Training
The AI Hub accepts university, polytechnic and college students for SIWES (Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme) placements. You join our technical or academy team, work on live client and in-house projects, and follow a structured AI and software track. A supervisor sets your weekly tasks, signs your ITF logbook and completes your end-of-placement assessment, and you leave with a portfolio project. SIWES at The AI Hub is not free: a training fee covers your supervision, mentoring, lab access and structured curriculum, and admissions will send the current fee when you apply.
