Yes — you receive an Ancourage Academy Certificate of Completion at the end of the workshop. It is issued by us as an independent provider; we do not issue vendor certificates (for example from OpenAI, Anthropic, Microsoft or Google).
No subscription is required to take part. Most tools we teach have capable free versions, and we show you what the free and paid tiers each do so you can decide what is worth paying for. Bring a laptop if you can — workshop fees are separate from any tool subscription.
