Programmes
Programmes that bring courses into one path.
A programme is a path of several courses that you take with a fixed group and finish with a capstone and an aali programme certificate. Pick one and apply.
Three programmes, three lengths.
Programmes run from four months to a full year. Each has its own courses, price and payment plan, all draft until aali's team confirms them. You apply first, hear back within about a week, and then pay and join your group. There is no entrance exam and no essay.

What is a programme?
A single course teaches one skill. A programme orders several courses so that each builds on the one before, then gathers them in a capstone where you apply what you learned to a real problem. What sets it apart most is that you learn with the same group from the first day to the last.
A path
Courses chosen and ordered for you
We choose the courses and put them in order so each builds on the last, and you spend no time planning. The path ends in a project that gathers what you learned.
A group
A fixed group beside you
You begin with the same people and finish with them. You learn from one another's experience, and the group stays a place to keep in touch after the programme.
A certificate
An aali programme certificate
Finish the courses and the capstone and you earn a programme certificate, plus a certificate of completion for each course. We claim no degree and no accreditation.

Programme or course?
Choose a course if you need one specific skill now and want to start without an admission step. Choose a programme if you want a whole path with a fixed group and a certificate that gathers what you finished. You can always begin with one course and move to a programme later, and nothing you completed is lost.
| Aspect | Course | Programme |

| Start | On a set date, or any day for on-demand courses | On set dates, once your application is accepted |

Lengths, decision time and payment rules are drafts.
The fixed group.
In a programme you join a group that starts together and finishes together. The faces do not change from one course to the next, so you come to know your classmates, how they think and where they disagree, and you sometimes learn more from them than from the reading.
01
The same rhythm
You move forward together, week after week, so there is always someone to discuss the case you have just read.
02
Live sessions (draft)
Live sessions with the faculty take up the hard cases. Their dates are announced with each cohort.
03
A network that lasts
Your group stays a place to swap ideas and openings after you have earned your certificate.

Prices and instalments (draft).
Prices are in Saudi riyals and are drafts. Where a programme costs less than its courses bought one by one, the table shows the gap; where it costs more, that is because the programme adds a capstone, live sessions, group coaching and a fixed group.
| Programme | Courses | Length | Price (draft) | Instalments (draft) | Courses one by one (draft) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Business Foundations | 3 courses + a capstone | 4 months | 10,500 SAR | 2 × 5,250 SAR | 14,700 SAR |
| Digital Innovation | 4 courses + a capstone | 6 months | 14,000 SAR | 2 × 7,000 SAR | 19,600 SAR |
| The Leadership Year | 6 courses + a capstone | 12 months | 38,000 SAR | 4 × 9,500 SAR | 29,400 SAR |
Your employer can pay for you. See the employer reimbursement guide.
Common questions.
Can I take just one course from a programme?
Yes. Every course in the programmes is also sold on its own, with its own certificate of completion. The programme certificate needs all its courses and the capstone.
Is a programme a degree?
No. Our certificates are aali's own certificates of completion, and we claim no degree and no accreditation from any outside body. What you take away is skills you can apply and a record of what you finished.
Do I apply or enrol directly?
You send a short application and hear back within about a week. Once accepted you pay and join your group. Single courses need no application.
Can my employer pay?
Yes, whether you pay and claim it back or your organisation pays directly. The employer reimbursement guide has the steps to follow.
What if no programme fits?
Start with one course, or take three in one subject for a specialisation certificate, or ask us for a suggestion that fits your work.
