How We Calculate Your ROI

Salary uplift is estimated from BLS Occupational Outlook data and our 2026 AI Salary Report, adjusted for your background and target role. Program costs come from our database of 1,200+ AI-relevant programs (verified tuition, 2025–26 rates). Break-even = total tuition ÷ monthly salary gain. 5-year net = (annual gain × 5) − tuition. We model a conservative 65% salary-gap capture rate to keep estimates realistic.
