What's New: AI in the Program

AI is woven into every part of the program — not added as an afterthought.

AI tools you'll learn

Claude — your AI-powered toolkit

Core tool

Every student receives a Claude Team subscription ($25/month, required) managed by 312 School. Your primary tool for coding, building infrastructure, learning, and getting work done.

Claude Code

An AI coding agent that works from your terminal. Build, debug, and deploy infrastructure using natural language.

MCP (Model Context Protocol)

Connect AI to your tools — Slack, Datadog, AWS, and more — so AI works with the same systems you use every day.

Kiro (by AWS)

AWS's AI development environment. Plan → design → build: disciplined AI-assisted engineering.

GitHub Copilot

The most widely used AI coding assistant. You'll be ready for any workplace that uses it.

Autonomous AI agents

Build AI agents that monitor infrastructure and respond to issues on their own — the "AI operator" pattern companies are adopting now.

Advanced module

Specific tools may be added or removed as AI evolves — the curriculum stays current with the latest technology.

Your AI-Powered Learning Experience

Claude is embedded into every stage of your journey:

Learning assistant

Explains concepts, answers questions — even after class

Hands-on assistant

Guides you through labs, homework, and projects

Mentor

Personalized support based on where you are in the program

Keeps you on your toes

Accountability, check-ins, and follow-ups tailored to you

Onboarding buddy

Start prepping before day one with AI-guided self-study, so you hit the ground running

Guest speakers with live demos

Industry professionals sharing how they use AI at work — with live demonstrations.

Every lecture builds your knowledge base

All sessions are recorded and transcribed by AI — a searchable library of perfect notes from every class.

One unified platform

Your progress, assignments, schedule, and support — all in one place.

Why fundamentals still matter

Core DevOps skills are more important than ever.

Specific tools matter less — you can fill any knowledge gap with AI. But understanding systems at large is essential to guide AI properly. AI isn't replacing engineers — it's superpowering them. Teams are getting smaller, but engineers are getting stronger.

The beginner's advantage

This is the best time to get into tech. AI is exciting, empowering, and makes you feel like a superhuman — you can accomplish far more, even with less experience.

Beginners have an edge: experienced engineers struggle to rethink existing systems. But today, whole systems need to be reimagined with a fresh perspective, using AI to bring better results — not just keeping teams busy.
