An NVIDIA-powered training stack — engineered for rural use.
A unified curriculum that takes a rural Texan from 'never touched AI' to deploying computer vision on Jetson hardware in under 20 weeks, using NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute coursework delivered with our college partner and funded through Denton County and Texas Workforce Commission programs.
Plug-and-play AI workflows for farmers, coaches, schools, and main-street businesses. Free tier forever via mycitymyschool.tech.
NVIDIA DLI courses delivered in-classroom with our NCTC college partner and on-demand through MyCitySchool — with tuition routed through Texas Workforce Commission funding lanes.
Jetson + DGX Cloud lab access for student-built AI products. Graduates feed directly into the Wistron / MyCityMySchool for Sports pipeline.
Four tiers · grant-funded seats · stackable DLI certificates
