Details

Artificial Intelligence may be our generation's most exciting pursuit, and, in order for a machine to be intelligent, it must be able to learn. Machine learning is the process by which computer systems access data, run experiments, and learn from experience, much the same way we do. In this course, you will learn how to set up these systems and how they might benefit your business.

This dynamic course covers both theoretical explanations and practical activities, which comprise over 60% of the course. The main goal is that participants face “real” problems, experience consequential challenges and learn to come up with a solution – guided by the instructor at all stages of the process.

Audience

This course is intended for technical analysts or mid-level managers who are willing to do their first steps in Machine Learning.

Pre-Requisites

Analysts/technical managers with at least 1 year of programming experience (Ideally, also experience in Python)
