Upon course completion, students walk away with:

  • ML skills and tools to plan, pitch, run and manage an ML project
  • A capstone project based on real-world datasets to show current or potential employers
  • An electronic badge of completion and certificate to share on LinkedIn and beyond

"With the majority of the class now online and on-demand, it’s never been easier to fit it into your calendar.” "

Joseph Pedrola, Product Owner – Training

Part on-demand lessons, part live online classes and part collaborative project, the course takes a flipped classroom approach, where content is delivered by Amii experts using our learning management system (LMS) and then reviewed and practiced with the instructor in a live synchronous class. Live office hours, programming labs, and group work highlight the learner experience in this program.

“Over 100 individuals have taken this highly specialized course to transition careers or become tech leaders within their companies,” says Joseph Pedrola, Product Owner – Training. “And with the majority of the class now online and on-demand, it’s never been easier to fit it into your calendar.”
