Three Guides. One Personalised Path.

Discover CDT
Your introduction to the program — how CDT fits alongside your university degree.
- What CDT is and how it runs parallel to your degree
- What the 5 career pillars mean for you — Study, Employment, Immigration, Entrepreneurship, AI Infusion
- Why starting in Year 1 gives maximum career advantage by graduation

A detailed 6-month program built specifically around your degree specialisation.
- Your academic curriculum mapped to the relevant technology stack
- An AI student gets a different first 6 months than a Cybersecurity or Data Science student

Fully Personalised
Once KYS is complete, the CDT engine generates a personalised career roadmap for the rest of your degree.
- Content, certifications, labs and milestones tailored to your goals every semester
- Employment in Canada or an MS in Europe — each goal gets its own roadmap
- Not adaptive learning — personalised career architecture
Mandatory Career Selection Strategy
The KYS engine is Al-Nafi's diagnostic backbone. Before you write a single line of Python or touch a model registry, we map your academic strengths, cognitive style, financial bandwidth, and geographic target — then lock you into the one certification domain where you have the highest probability of success.
Important: Students select exactly ONE target certification domain. Splitting focus across multiple frameworks dramatically reduces success rates.
The Program Ends When Your Degree Ends
Duration depends on which year you are in when you enrol. The earlier you start, the longer your CDT runs and the lighter your daily commitment.
Undergraduate
| Year of Enrolment | CDT Duration | Daily Time |
|---|---|---|
| 1st Year | 48 months | 1 hour/day |
| 2nd Year | 36 months | 1–2 hours/day |
| 3rd Year | 24 months | 2–3 hours/day |
| 4th Year | 12 months | 3–4 hours/day |
Postgraduate
| Year of Enrolment | CDT Duration | Daily Time |
|---|---|---|
| 1st Year | 24 months | 2–3 hours/day |
| 2nd Year | 12 months | 3–4 hours/day |
Same Total Fee. Lower Monthly When You Start Early.
The total program fee is fixed regardless of the year you enrol — the duration shortens, so the same total is divided over fewer months. All fees include tax.
Fee Structure
| Program | Year of Enrolment | Duration | Total Fees | Per-Month Fees |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Undergraduate | 1st Year | 48 months | USD 1,700 | USD 35 |
| Undergraduate | 2nd Year | 36 months | USD 1,700 | USD 47 |
| Undergraduate | 3rd Year | 24 months | USD 1,700 | USD 71 |
| Undergraduate | 4th Year | 12 months | USD 1,700 | USD 142 |
| Postgraduate | 1st Year | 24 months | USD 1,700 | USD 71 |
| Postgraduate | 2nd Year | 12 months | USD 1,700 | USD 142 |
Why does the monthly fee increase if you join later? The total stays the same, but a shorter duration means the same amount is divided over fewer months. Enrolling early gives you the most affordable monthly rate.
