The PGP-AIML has a good structure, excellent material with

videos, case studies, exercises, lots of quizzes and well-
researched articles that help in understanding and diving
deeper into each subject. The mentoring sessions are led by
industry experts. They are a truly valuable addition that helps
to interact, clear doubts and walk through additional case
studies. After finishing the program, I feel that I have the right
tools to lead a project that requires Machine Learning or Deep
Learning knowledge.

DIMITRIS ZARKADOULAS
Architect at 3Pillar Global

Due to the nature of my work, I needed greater knowledge

in AI and Machine Learning. With the PGP-AIML, I found
the answer to what I was looking for. This is a program with
very high-quality standards that allowed me to study at
my own pace and the quizzes helped me check my level of
comprehension daily. The graded quizzes and projects let me
