A milestone worth keeping
Pass the quiz after each of the 17 lessons and earn a personalised Pi Leo Academy Certificate of Completion, featuring the academy symbol, issue date and certificate number.
It recognises completion of this introductory course. It is not an accredited school or professional qualification.
Optional real-world adventure
IBM’s Open Plan offers up to 10 minutes of quantum processor time per rolling 28-day window. An approved IBM Classroom Account lets teachers set up student access without credit card details. Availability and account eligibility are controlled by IBM.
Practise with our simulator first, then use the supervised IBM Quantum Composer guide. The hardware activity is optional; your certificate depends on passing the 17 quizzes.
