How it works

Four steps, start to credential.

Self-paced from the day you apply. Each step produces something you can show, not just a box you check.

01

Apply

Sign in with LinkedIn, pick a track, write a few sentences. About five minutes.

02

Onboard

Get approved, complete AI Fluency kickoff, then your track checklist and ladder baseline.

03

Build

Work assignments at your pace. End on a capstone with a real artifact.

04

Graduate

Ship the capstone, then earn a verifiable credential and an eligible recommendation letter you can show a recruiter.

Program view

The work has a visible trail.

From application to graduation, the internship is organized around proof: choices, submitted work, review history, and a credential others can inspect.

Claude Partner Network

Anthropic certificates when available.

FlyRank is part of the Claude Partner Network. When partner access and eligibility allow, accepted interns may complete covered Anthropic courses alongside their track at no cost to them. The FlyRank credential proves the work; these certificates add an optional external learning signal.

Optional, not required

This is not a paid upsell or a replacement for shipping real work. It is extra validation interns can stack onto their capstone, eligible recommendation letter, and FlyRank credential.

FAQs

Questions people ask before applying.

Is this really free?+

Yes. No fees, no payment, no upsell, and no data sale. FlyRank funds the program as community work: it helps us know strong builders, but it does not promise a job or give sponsors/employers private participant data.

Do I need to pay for Claude or any other AI tools?+

No. Paid tool plans are not required for the track curriculum. The free tiers cover the work, and nothing in the program requires a paid plan or credit card.

Who can apply?+

Adults 18+ who can participate in an unpaid educational internship and use the required online tools. Students, career switchers, and anyone who wants something real on their LinkedIn are welcome. No degree or prior experience required; the application asks for a short motivation note so reviewers understand what you want to build. Some locations, services, or legal constraints may limit participation.

What do I get at the end?+

A verifiable credential, an eligible recommendation letter, and a portfolio piece you actually built. We do not promise a job.
