Participant handbook

Rules, support paths, and proof boundaries in one place.

Rules, support paths, and what FlyRank won't overpromise — for applicants, interns, and verifiers.

Operating rules

The parts participants need to trust.

This page keeps the high-level program rules readable. Terms, privacy, and official support responses still control edge cases.

Program format

FlyRank AI Internship is an unpaid, remote, self-paced educational program. You choose one track, complete practical work, submit a capstone, and can earn a verifiable credential when requirements are met.

  • The program is not employment, contract work, or a promise of future placement.
  • Capstones are reviewed as learning evidence, not production delivery for a client.
  • Most tracks are designed around focused weekly work blocks at your own pace.

Capstones and reviews

Your capstone is the main proof of work. Reviewers look for public or reviewable evidence, clear ownership, safe use of AI, and a useful explanation of what you built or learned.

  • You'll get clear revision notes; private reviewer comments stay internal.
  • Revision requests explain what to improve and where to resubmit.
  • A public URL must be usable by reviewers unless a track-specific exception applies.

Credentials and letters

Your credential, certificate PDF, and letters depend on identity, track, cohort, capstone, and completion records being ready.

  • Credential names should match your approved profile identity.
  • Public verification confirms completion status without exposing private PDFs.
  • Recommendation letters use approved, participant-safe evidence.

Community expectations

Use shared spaces for learning, respectful questions, peer help, and program communication. Harassment, impersonation, spam, or abuse can affect access.

  • Use approved channels for support, credential questions, and accessibility needs.
  • Do not publish another participant's work, identity, or support issue without permission.
  • AI use is expected, but you remain responsible for accuracy and originality.

Support routing

Include the relevant application, profile, assignment, capstone, credential, or event context whenever possible so the team can route your issue.

  • Applicants can ask about application status, intake windows, and LinkedIn sign-in issues.
  • Interns can ask about onboarding, resources, assignments, capstones, events, profile, or credentials.
  • Verifiers can use the credential support path when a credential ID is invalid, missing, or unclear.

Accessibility and participation needs

You can request help with access needs, device or bandwidth constraints, event materials, alternate formats, or site barriers.

  • Describe the affected page, event, resource, assignment, or material.
  • Urgent participation blockers should include the deadline or program step at risk.
  • Accessibility support is separate from credential verification and admissions decisions.
