Software engineering,
taught in Af-Soomaali.
Dugsiiye is the Somali-language school that takes you from your first HTML tag to shipped AI apps. 7,000+ students learn in the language they think in, with live mentorship every week and a curriculum built around the AI tools the industry hires for.
One program.
Ten phases.
The Full Stack AI Engineer mentorship is the spine of Dugsiiye: 10 phases over 32 weeks, about 8 months, from foundations to AI engineering, every lesson in Somali. Each phase ships a real project. The last two put you inside the AI stack itself: chatbots, RAG systems, agents, and the agentic workflow with Claude Code.
Every phase is also available as a standalone course, so you can start with one skill and grow into the full path.

We rebuilt the school for the AI era.
Most coding programs still teach the old way: months of syntax memorization before you build anything real. The industry moved on. Modern engineers work with AI tools like Claude Code and Cursor, and they ship faster than the curriculum most schools still sell.
Dugsiiye was rebuilt from the ground up for this reality. The Full Stack AI Engineer program runs 32 weeks across 10 phases, and it teaches you to code with AI, in Somali, with live mentorship every week.
The result: students graduate with deployed apps and AI-engineering skills most working developers do not have yet. That is why our graduates walk into interviews with real, deployed work to show.
The values that guide us.
Af-Soomaali first
Every lesson, mentorship session, and code review is in Somali. You learn fastest in the language you think in, so that is the language we teach in.
AI-native curriculum
We rebuilt the program around Claude Code, Cursor, and agentic workflows. You build with AI from the first weeks, because that is how the industry works now.
Ship real apps
Every phase ends with a deployed project. By graduation you have real apps in production: AI chat, RAG systems, and multi-agent tools employers can open and try.
Community that gets you hired
Live weekly mentorship, reviewed exercises, resume prep, and a network of 7,000+ Somali students and alumni. Graduates leave with shipped projects and interview practice behind them.
Mohamud Osman
Mohamud teaches what he actually uses to ship. Not theory, not slides from five years ago. 11 years writing code and he is still building every week, still on the keyboard. Every workflow taught in Dugsiiye is one he runs himself, and he teaches every cohort personally, in Somali.
From one idea to 7,000+ students.
The beginning
Dugsiiye launched with a simple idea: Somali speakers deserve world-class tech education in their own language.
First 1,000 students
Students from Mogadishu to Minneapolis were learning to code in Somali. The community proved the demand was real.
Mentorship program launched
Live weekly sessions, code reviews, and career support. Our graduates started landing real tech jobs.
AI changed the game
We rebuilt the program around AI. Claude Code, Cursor, and agentic development became the core of the curriculum, not an afterthought.
Full Stack AI Engineer
The flagship program grew to 10 phases and 125+ hours, ending in an agentic-coding capstone with Claude Code. Students now ship AI chat, RAG systems, and multi-agent apps before they graduate.
32 weeks from now, you could be a Full Stack AI Engineer.
10 phases. Real shipped apps. Claude Code and the AI tools the industry hires for. All in Af-Soomaali.
