Get hired at startups. For real this time.

A six-week program that teaches you how businesses find, serve, and keep customers with AI as a working tool, not a buzzword. You leave with a portfolio, a peer group, and access to 500+ alumni across Canada.

Opportunity

Your shortcut into the jobs employers are actually hiring for

The job market changed, and nobody sent you the memo. Employers want practical skills — finding customers, running a pipeline, using AI as a daily tool — but school didn’t teach any of that. You’re expected to contribute from day one, and the path from here to there isn’t obvious.

This program closes that gap. In six weeks, you’ll learn the skills that growing companies actually hire for — sales, marketing, AI as aworking tool, and how to tell your professional story. You’ll build a real portfolio with Relay and join a peer group and alumni network of 500+ people who started where you are now.

For those looking to break into high-growth or tech-forward companies, sales skills offer one of the most direct paths in. You can make an immediate impact while building capabilities that carry into any future role.

A 6-week hybrid program where you’ll walk away with:

AI Fluency
Applied Skills (Sales & AI)
Professional Judgment
A Community That Lasts Beyond the Program

Are you a fit?

This program is built for you if you’ve been applying to jobs and keep hitting “2+ years experience required” — or if you’re working in something adjacent to what you want and looking for a way into sales, growth, or tech roles without starting from zero. If you see AI everywhere and want to actually use it in your work (not just hear about it), you’ll fit here.

Ideal participant experience:

  • Recent graduates looking to break into sales or growth roles
  • Customer success or service professionals transitioning into sales
  • 1–3 years of experience at a growing or tech-forward company, looking to upskill

Who should attend:

  • Want to build job-ready skills using AI, business tools, and hands-on projects rather than theory
  • Feel ready to move into sales or growth roles and want practical experience that proves your capability
  • Want to understand how fast-moving teams actually operate — how they sell, how they use AI, how they make decisions
  • Value learning alongside a driven peer community while developing the judgment, adaptability, and initiative employers look for
