Inside the Course
A look at what's waiting for you
Six modules, built for people who've tried learning before and need something that actually sticks.
Most coding curricula are built for computer science students who have years. You don't. This module gives you the exact sequence — what to learn in week one, what to ignore for now, and how to use AI to compress months of progress into days. Mariana shares the roadmap she'd follow if she were starting today, built for someone with a busy life and real goals.
Traditional coding courses spend weeks on syntax before you touch anything real. Vibe coding flips that. You start with a project idea, use AI as your collaborator, and build something functional from your first session. You learn the rules by breaking them — guided by AI that explains what's happening in plain English as you go.
There's a right way and a wrong way to use AI coding tools. The wrong way creates a dependency — you copy and paste without understanding. The right way makes you faster and smarter simultaneously. This module shows you how Mariana uses these tools as a PM and creator, and how to make them work for a beginner building their first real project.
Mariana is a Product Manager at Microsoft. She knows what the hiring process actually looks like from the inside — not from a LinkedIn post, but from experience. This module covers how to position a non-traditional background, what technical skills matter most at which level, and how to tell your story in a way that makes technical hiring managers take you seriously.
You finish this course with a working project — not a certificate. A real, functional piece of software you built using the skills from the previous modules. Step-by-step guidance keeps you from getting stuck. The goal is something you can show in an interview, share with a hiring manager, or even launch if you want to.
The course ending is the beginning. This module covers the next skill unlocks, the communities worth being in, and the clearest paths from where you are after this course to where you want to end up — whether that's a new job title, a different team, or a project of your own. Mariana maps the territory so you're not navigating blind.
