Over 1,000 graduates have already taken our path — and many of them landed a job in IT or advanced in their field as a result.
Is Turing Institut the former Bee IT, and why does the Bee IT brand appear in reviews?
Yes. Turing Institut is the new name of the Bee IT training studio. The rebranding took place in 2026 because we moved from individual IT courses to broader education in artificial intelligence, data science and software development. The operating company, Bee Learning s.r.o., remains the same.
Many reviews were written before the name change, so graduates naturally use the Bee IT brand in them. They are reviews of our teaching from the period before the rebranding. You can read more about our journey on the About us page.
Who teaches your courses?
Our lecturers are professionals from practice who actually use the technologies every day — not armchair theorists. They pass on current practices, experience from real projects and tips you will not find in textbooks. We select lecturers carefully and collect feedback after every lesson, so the quality of teaching stays high.
Can I try the teaching before I sign up?
Of course — we play with our cards on the table. We have plenty of sample lessons that let you get a feel for our teaching style before signing up. You can also listen to our podcast with lecturers on YouTube and Spotify (in Czech), where we talk about technology, AI and careers in IT, and you will find clear infographics on Instagram. And you can read what our graduates themselves say about us in the References section.
How are you different from others?
We build on several pillars: practice from the first lesson, cutting-edge technology, everything in one place in our e-learning and a community that moves you forward. On top of that, all our courses have been modernised to include working with AI tools (e.g. Codex or Claude). We add video recordings of online lessons, our own study materials, a certificate, a discount on further courses and the option to retake the course for free. You will find the details on the How we teach page.
How do you know your courses work?
The results speak for us. Over 1,000 graduates have completed our courses and many of them now work in IT — from data analysts to developers. You can read their specific stories and reviews in the References section.
How to choose a course
Before you sign up — here is everything to help you pick the right course.
What courses do you offer?
We offer courses in two main areas:
- Artificial Intelligence and Data Science — Vibe Coding and AI in Software Development, Data Analysis and Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Neural Networks, AI Agent Developer, and AI for Developers, Science and Data Analytics.
- Software Engineering — Python Programming and Vibe Coding, Get Started with Linux and DevOps, Become a C# Developer, Game Development in C# and Unity, Become a Test Automation Engineer in Python, and Relational Databases and SQL.
Current availability, dates, prices and entry requirements can be found in the course overview and on each course’s detail page.
How do the individual AI courses differ?
Each AI course aims at a different goal. You can focus on using AI in software development, data analysis, machine learning and neural networks, AI agent development or the broader use of AI in programming, science and working with data.
Choose the right path for your goal, experience and time in our clear comparison Which AI course to choose?
Which courses are suitable for complete beginners?
With no previous programming experience you can start with the Python Programming and Vibe Coding or Relational Databases and SQL course. Both take you through the topic from the very basics.
If testing appeals to you, we also recommend the Become a Test Automation Engineer in Python course. It is designed for people with no previous testing experience, but before starting you need to know the basics of Python — conditions, loops, functions and the basics of object-oriented programming. You can pick these up in the Python Programming and Vibe Coding course.
The other courses build on some prior knowledge. For AI, data analysis and DevOps at least the basics of programming are usually useful; the Unity course requires the basics of C#. You will always find the exact requirements in the Prerequisites section on the course detail page. If you are not sure, get in touch and we will pick a suitable course together.
I don't know which course is right for me. Can you advise?
Gladly. Write to us at info@beeit.cz or call +420 732 813 373 and together we will choose a course that moves you towards your goal. You can also check out our sample lessons and podcast to get a better idea.
Are courses also held in person?
Yes. Selected courses and training sessions are held in person in Brno and Prague; other dates take place online via Zoom. The specific format is always stated for each date. Take a look at our classrooms for in-person courses; you will find more about the organisation on the How we teach page. We record every online lesson.
What computer and equipment do I need?
An ordinary laptop (Windows, macOS or Linux) and an internet connection are enough. All the tools we use in class are free and you install them following the lecturer’s instructions. For online teaching a webcam and headphones with a microphone come in handy.
During the course
What the classes look like, what comes with them and what you can rely on during the course.
What do the classes themselves look like?
Our lessons are built on active participation. We combine clear explanations with demos, diagrams and practical exercises in which you try out the new material straight away — with us, practice starts from the first lesson. Classes also include group consultations, optional homework with feedback and projects with their own supervisor.
Are the lessons live, or is it a pre-recorded course?
All lessons take place live with a lecturer — it is not a pre-recorded online course. During the class you can ask questions, join the discussion and work on practical exercises with immediate feedback.
Online lessons take place via Zoom, in-person teaching in our classrooms; the exact format is always stated for the specific date. For online courses you also get video recordings of all lessons, so you can return to the explanations or catch up on missed material.
Do you use modern AI tools in class?
Yes — a lot. We have modernised all our courses to reflect how people work in IT today. We combine classic teaching of concepts (so that you understand what you are doing and why) with the practical use of modern AI tools such as Codex or Claude. You will also try so-called vibe coding — and, most importantly, learn how to use AI properly, effectively and thoughtfully, rather than just clicking blindly.
What if I miss a lesson?
No problem. We record every online lesson, and you have access to the recording whenever you want to come back to it. So if you miss an online lesson, you can easily catch up from the recording — and the recordings are also useful for revising what was covered. For in-person teaching, the availability of recordings may vary depending on the specific date.
What study materials will I get?
For every topic we prepare our own supplementary self-study materials — texts, examples and guides that you can use for revision and to deepen your knowledge. We place particular emphasis on artificial intelligence, for which we have extensive original materials. For working with code we use the Jupyter Notebook environment.
How much time will the course take?
Besides the lessons themselves, it is worth allowing time for homework and practice — the more you try, the more you take away. But to a large extent you set the pace yourself: thanks to the video recordings and the materials in the e-learning system you can study whenever it suits you.
Will I have someone to turn to with questions?
Definitely. You get access to our Discord community, where you can message the lecturers and other participants at any time — during the course and beyond. On top of that there is a regular newsletter with news from the world of IT.
Can I retake the course if something doesn't click?
Yes! If you attend at least two thirds of the lessons and something is still unclear, you can go through the next run of the same course again, free of charge. We want you to truly master the material.
Payment and invoicing
How to pay, what is included in the price and how invoices and benefits work.
How can I pay for the course?
Choose what suits you:
- Payment card — fast and secure online.
- Invoice — the ideal choice for bank transfer or when your employer pays for the course.
- Benefit cards and vouchers — we accept, for example, Pluxee (formerly Sodexo) and Benefit Plus.
Is the stated price final and inclusive of VAT?
Yes. The price stated for a specific date is final and includes VAT. We do not add any mandatory extra fee to the course price.
If you need an invoice issued to a company, simply fill in the company details when ordering. For longer courses you can also arrange split payments with us before ordering.
What is included in the course price?
The price includes the teaching itself, our own study materials, for online courses also video recordings of all lessons, group consultations, feedback on homework and projects, access to the community, a certificate after successful completion and career counselling. The materials and available recordings also remain yours permanently.
Can I pay in instalments?

Do I get a discount on my next course?
Yes. After completing a course, as a graduate you get a 20 % discount on any further course of your choice. Continuing your education with us simply pays off.
Can my employer pay for the course?
No problem. We will issue an invoice to the company and we also accept benefit cards and vouchers (Pluxee, Benefit Plus). When your employer pays for the course, we are happy to prepare everything they need — just get in touch.
What if I cancel or cannot attend? Will I get a refund?
Contact us as soon as possible at info@beeit.cz — we always look first for a solution that suits you, such as moving to a later date or a different course.
If you want to withdraw from your enrolment, the refund of the course fee is governed by our terms and conditions:
- 65 % of the price is refunded if you withdraw at least 30 days before the course starts,
- 50 % of the price if you withdraw at least 15 days before the start,
- 10 % of the price if you withdraw less than 15 days before the start.
Once the course has started, there is no longer any entitlement to a refund. As a consumer you also have the statutory right to withdraw within 14 days of concluding the contract without giving a reason — in that case we refund everything. Just send us the withdrawal by e-mail and we will confirm it within 3 working days.
You will find all the details in our terms and conditions.
After the course
With us it does not end with the course. This is what you take away and how we help you afterwards.
Will I get a certificate?
Yes. After successfully completing the course we issue you a certificate, in both electronic and paper form. Our courses are also accredited, and for selected courses you can also obtain an internationally recognised certification.
Will you help me find a job in IT?
If your goal is a job in IT, we will not leave you to it alone. As part of our career counselling we help you polish your CV and LinkedIn, advise you on where and how to look for offers, and prepare you for interviews. Many of our graduates have successfully moved into IT this way.
What do I keep after the course?
All teaching materials and, for online courses, the video recordings of all lessons remain yours permanently — as does access to the community channel. You also get recommendations on where to develop next, a 20 % discount on your next course and the option to retake the course for free (subject to attendance).
Do I stay part of the community after the course?
Yes, and we will be very happy to see you there. For graduates and community members we organise extra events — lectures, meetups and private courses available only to them. You stay in touch with the lecturers and others and keep up with news from the world of AI and IT even after the course ends.
What is the certificate good for?
The certificate proves that you really completed the course and have a command of the subject — which you will appreciate on your CV and at interviews. Even more important, though, is what you take away: practical skills and projects that demonstrate your knowledge.
For companies
Want to move your team forward? We will prepare training tailored to your needs.
Do you also train companies?
Yes. We prepare corporate training tailored to your team’s needs — from artificial intelligence and data analysis to software development. We have experienced lecturers from practice and adapt both content and format to your goals.
How does corporate cooperation work?
We agree on the scope, topics and format of the training (online, at your premises or in our classrooms). Besides training employees, we also offer the opportunity to present your company to our graduates as a potential employer. Find out more on the Cooperation page.
