FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VANCOUVER, B.C., September 27, 2026 — ARQS today announced that the AI Academy has been added to the ARQS.ca portfolio as its platform for practical artificial-intelligence learning. The AI Academy was the first portfolio brand to appear on arqs.ca, with its first landing page going live on September 12, and it gives the portfolio a place to teach the AI skills that ARQS software is built on.

What the AI Academy offers

The Academy runs on the Northline Technology Institute and AI Academy online campus, a digital campus with admissions, a library, a student portal and career services. Courses cover AI agents, automation, intelligent systems and applied integration. Learners can browse the full course catalogue, see the programs and pathways or compare certificates and completion paths.

Practical courses on the site include Practical AI Workflow Foundations, AI Workflow Design, AI for Small Business Owners, AI for Everyday Work, AI Agent Operations, Prompt Architecture for Business and Build Your Business Website With AI.

How learners study

Every eligible course follows the same syllabus, labs, review questions, final examination and applied project, and learners choose how much support they want, from self-study at home upward. The learning model page explains the structure, and the academic calendar lists dates.

Availability

The AI Academy is open now at arqs.ca/AIAcademy. Admission for the inaugural class is selective; details are on the admissions and tuition and fees pages, and the registrar handles enrolment questions. The Academy works alongside Northline Technology Institute, and AI Academy courses also appear in the ARQS Store.
