DataCamp supports the Mark Cuban Foundation AI Bootcamp through two dedicated DataCamp Classroom environments, each designed to serve different segments of the program’s mission. The partnership provides unlimited access to DataCamp’s entire curriculum and advanced features for one full year, with automatic renewal capability to ensure continuity of learning opportunities.
The first classroom serves the Teacher Fellowship and Teacher Bootcamp programs, accommodating educators with complete access to DataCamp’s data science and AI curriculum. The second classroom supports student participants across all AI Bootcamps, providing the same comprehensive learning environment for the 700 students participating in the 2025 program cycle. This dual-classroom approach recognizes the distinct learning needs and objectives of educators versus students while maintaining consistency in the quality and depth of educational resources provided.
DataCamp is a data and AI learning platform that helps people do their best work in a changing world.
A global learning engine, DataCamp supports over 6,000 organizations and 17 million learners through practical, hands-on upskilling for all skill levels. Every interactive course, exercise, and project empowers learners to apply real–world technology knowledge quickly and confidently.
With expert coverage of every data and AI skill, the platform offers just under 600 courses, covering essential data technologies including Python, R, SQL, Power BI, Excel, Tableau, and more. Learners also stay at the forefront of the AI revolution with a constantly evolving curriculum, from core concepts like ChatGPT fundamentals, prompt engineering, and AI ethics to advanced programs in the OpenAI API, Claude, Hugging Face, Langchain, and many more.
DataCamp’s content is developed by over 260 industry experts from leading universities and corporations, including instructors from Duke University, Microsoft, and Amazon. This expert-led, interactive approach drives a 6x higher course completion rate than traditional providers while ensuring that content meets the latest industry demands and that learners are building skills employers are actively hiring for.
DataCamp’s comprehensive, flexible platform architecture directly supports the Mark Cuban Foundation’s educational objectives through multiple complementary features and capabilities. For the Teacher Fellowship and Teacher Bootcamp programs, DataCamp provides educators with both learning opportunities and practical tools they can integrate into their own classrooms.
Teachers gain access to DataCamp’s complete curriculum, allowing them to develop their own data and AI literacy skills while exploring how more advanced data science and AI concepts can be incorporated into various subject areas. The platform’s custom track feature enables the Mark Cuban Foundation to create specialized learning paths that combine bootcamp-specific content with DataCamp’s extensive course library, ensuring that teacher training aligns perfectly with program objectives. Advanced reporting capabilities allow program coordinators to track teacher progress, identify areas where additional support may be needed, and measure the effectiveness of different training approaches.
For student participants in the AI Bootcamps, DataCamp serves as both a learning platform and a practical demonstration of how AI and data science intersect. Students can explore foundational concepts in statistics, data visualization, programming, and AI that complement their bootcamp curriculum. The platform’s project-based, real-world learning approach provides students with portfolio-worthy experiences that demonstrate their technical capabilities to future employers or college admissions committees.
Our mission at DataCamp has always been to democratize data and AI skills for everyone. By partnering with the Mark Cuban Foundation AI Bootcamps, we can empower both teachers and students with the tools and curriculum they need to thrive in the AI transformation.”

DataCamp’s partnership delivers substantial value through several key contributions that extend far beyond basic platform access. The provision of unlimited seats in both classrooms removes capacity constraints that might otherwise limit program expansion, supporting the Mark Cuban Foundation’s goal of reaching thousands of students across the United States in 2025.
The custom track development capability represents a particularly significant contribution, enabling the foundation to create personalized learning paths that seamlessly integrate bootcamp content with DataCamp’s extensive course library. These custom tracks can incorporate courses, assessments, projects, and even external resources such as webinars and tutorials, providing a comprehensive and cohesive learning experience that reinforces bootcamp concepts while expanding participants’ technical skill sets.
This collaboration represents a significant advancement in educational equity and workforce development, demonstrating how strategic partnerships between educational nonprofits and technology companies can amplify impact for underserved communities. The partnership addresses critical gaps in data and AI literacy education that have become increasingly important as data skills transition from specialized requirements to essential workplace competencies across all industries.
For the broader educational ecosystem, this partnership serves as a model for how established platforms can support mission-driven organizations while advancing shared goals of educational access and quality. DataCamp’s commitment to providing free access through programs like DataCamp Classrooms aligns perfectly with the Mark Cuban Foundation’s focus on removing barriers to high-quality education.
