AI Training in Fez

Fez is Morocco's scientific and spiritual capital, heir to Al Quaraouiyine, the oldest university in the world still in operation. Today, Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah University — one of the country's largest — and the city's engineering schools train tens of thousands of students, many of whom are looking for the missing link between their degree and the job market.

That missing link is often applied AI. Because Fez is not just a university city: its medina hosts the largest craft ecosystem in Morocco, its region is developing projects like Fez Smart Factory, and its university hospital, clinics and industrial SMEs are digitising their operations. All of them need local AI skills.

212AY Academy closes that gap from Fez: a 100% online programme in generative AI, prompt engineering and automation, where you learn by building real projects — the ideal complement to a university degree or an existing business.

Why learn AI in Fez

Fez offers a rare advantage: a huge student population and a cost of living that leaves time to learn and experiment. For a student at USMBA, ENSA Fez or the EST, adding applied AI to a degree completely changes their market profile: recruiters in Fez, Casablanca and beyond compete for young people who can actually automate and build with AI. And for Fez entrepreneurs, AI is the most accessible lever to grow beyond the region.

AI opportunities in Fez

In Fez, AI meets concrete terrain: e-commerce and storytelling for the medina craft sector — multilingual product listings, automated online shops, AI-generated visuals to export Fassi know-how —, edtech and AI tutoring for the huge student market, administrative automation for faculties and firms, management support for the university hospital and clinics, and agritech in the neighbouring Sais plain. Young Fez graduates also position themselves as AI freelancers for national and international clients, without leaving their city.
