Codefi AI Skills
Training Program
The holder of this badge completed Codefi's hands-on AI Skills training and built a working application with vibe coding to earn it. Not a webinar. Not a quiz. A real build.
Issued by Codefi | Project-based assessment | Vibe coding & AI tools
What This Badge Certifies
Badge holders take an idea from prompt to working product.
Every earner completed structured coursework on VibeLabs and shipped a working project. These are the six skills they demonstrated.
Vibe Coding Fundamentals
Build software by describing what it should do, then use AI coding tools to generate, run and refine real code.
Prompting for Builders
Write clear, structured prompts that turn a feature idea into precise instructions an AI model can execute.
Idea to Working App
Scope a problem, plan the features and build a functional prototype or MVP from a blank start.
Test, Debug & Iterate
Read AI output critically, find what breaks and fix it through fast feedback loops instead of guesswork.
Deploy & Share
Launch a project real users can open, collect their feedback and ship the next version.
Responsible AI Use
Protect sensitive data, check AI work for accuracy and know when a human decision is required.

Learn fast. Build right. Prove it.
Watching AI demos isn't the same as using AI. Skills stick when you build something real, so this badge goes to a finished project.
