ML Technician Certification Course

The demand for AI and machine learning (ML) expertise is growing across all industries -- and so is the demand for skilled workers.
The ML Technician Certification Course gives individuals the skills they need to thrive as they pursue a career in AI or integrate ML into their current role.
Part on-demand lessons, part live online classes and part collaborative project, the 9-week course is a fast and flexible way to develop your ML knowledge and skills.
You'll leave the course with an electronic ML Technician Badge to share on Linkedin and beyond, as well as a Certificate of Completion and Capstone Project to share with prospective employers.
Apply by August 31 to take advantage of our summer pricing (20% off -- $3,996 CAD).
This project-based course takes a flipped classroom approach, where content is delivered from Amii’s 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.
There will be a module every two weeks with a new programming assignment, and the course concludes with a capstone project. Participants should expect to spend 10-14 hours per week on course work.
Summer pricing is currently in effect. The ML Technician Certification runs for $3,996 CAD until August 31 ($4,995 CDN thereafter) and is eligible for a maximum ⅔ reimbursement through the Canada-Alberta Job Grant.

This course has been created to upskill anyone with a basic technical skillset. For example, if you have previously obtained an engineering degree, you will already have the numerical sense necessary for acquiring knowledge of machine learning. In addition, we expect that the learner will have background and experience with the following skills and concepts:
Participants in this course are required to attend Amii’s ML Foundations 1 & ML Foundations 2 prior to course start – successful applicants for the ML Tech Certification will receive complimentary access to the Foundations courses. Previous attendance in ML Foundations applies.
Amii is offering a limited number of scholarships which cover the full cost of registration.
The focus is on giving access to individuals who are typically underrepresented in STEM fields, who are recent immigrants to Canada or who live in rural settings.
Applications are completed on the basis of self-identification. If you would like to apply for a scholarship, fill out the Financial Assistance section of the program application.
Our instructors have a passion for teaching with a background in advanced AI and machine learning research. They've studied under some of the world's top AI researchers, and they're excited to share their knowledge with you!
