Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the key drivers of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. That’s why, AI came fourth in LinkedIn’s top 10 of the hard skills that companies needed most in 2020.

So what are the foundational principles of AI that drive the products and services of tomorrow? And what are the skills required to design and build your own AI solutions?

This ExpertTrack will teach you everything that’s required to help you advance your career in machine learning (ML) and AI engineering.

Take your first steps towards your career in artificial intelligence

You’ll learn how to master the key concepts of cloud computing and how they relate to AI development, and complete in-depth analysis of core cloud computing models infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and software-as-a-service (SaaS).

You’ll find out how conversation-as-a-platform is creating AI chatbots of the future, and unlock the coding power of the Python programming language.

And you’ll discover how to use apps and cognitive services in the design and implementation of Microsoft Azure AI solutions.

Learn how to create a chatbot with Microsoft Azure

Azure is Microsoft’s cloud computing platform, used by more than 95% of Fortune 500 companies. As well as mastering the basics of Azure’s functionality in building AI solutions with cloud services, you’ll be trained in its core services that will enhance your employment potential beyond the realms of just the AI and ML sectors and industries.

Develop Python AI programming skills

Machine learning drives the predictive models at the heart of all AI. You’ll build key data science and ML skills using Python.

You’ll learn how to use the popular Python programming language for data science, data science research methods and visualisation tools, and the Pandas DataFrame.

Gain a professional certification in AI

Offered through a collaboration with Microsoft, this ExpertTrack will teach you the fundamentals of AI and provide you with the skills to design and build an AI solution using Microsoft Azure. You’ll prepare for the Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals (AI-900) and Microsoft Azure AI Engineer Associate (AI-100) certification exams (the cost of these is separate from the ExpertTrack)
