Simplilearn, the world’s leading online bootcamp for digital skills, recently announced the launch of a comprehensive Professional Certificate Programme in Generative AI and Machine Learning in collaboration with Electronics & ICT Academy, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (E&ICT Academy, IIT Guwahati). This programme is not accessible anywhere else.
Generative AI is transforming businesses globally by improving content development, product design, customer service, and more. This unique curriculum seeks to provide professionals with cutting-edge capabilities in generative AI, machine learning, deep learning, and specialized fields such as computer vision and natural language processing.
The program includes critical study of models such as GPT and BERT, with emphasis on design principles, performance indicators, and constraints. Learners investigate a variety of generative models, including VAEs, GANs, transformers, and autoencoder.
They also understand supervised and unsupervised learning approaches for recommendation systems and time series modeling, as well as how to ensure model efficacy using accuracy measures. Practical abilities in scientific computing with SciPy, NumPy, and scikit-learn are combined with reinforcement learning using Python and TensorFlow.
Simplilearn is a multinational online education technology firm based in San Francisco, CA. Krishna Kumar, an Indian engineer, started it in 2010. It now has offices in Raleigh, North Carolina, and Bangalore, India.
As of 2020, the company’s learning site offers online certificates (MOOCs) in cybersecurity, cloud computing, project management, digital marketing, and data science.
Speaking about the initiative, Anand Narayanan, Chief Product Officer of Simplilearn, stated:
Developing skills in generative AI and machine learning is critical in today’s technological context, where sophisticated AI capabilities drive innovation. With the Generative AI market predicted to be worth $667.9 billion by 2030, our cooperation with E&ICT Academy, IIT Guwahati demonstrates Simplilearn’s commitment to provide industry-leading education.
This comprehensive curriculum prepares individuals to make a real-world impact and improve their careers in this fast changing subject, ensuring they are well-equipped to navigate and innovate in the dynamic AI landscape.
The academic curriculum at IIT Guwahati began in 1995. The Institute now includes eleven departments and five inter-disciplinary academic centers that span all of the main engineering, scientific, and humanities areas, and offers BTech, BDes, MA, MDes, MTech, MSc, and PhD programs.
Gaurav Trivedi, Principal Investigator of the E&ICT Academy at IIT Guwahati, stated:
As technical education pioneers, E&ICT Academy at IIT Guwahati is excited to collaborate with Simplilearn to present a complete Generative AI and Machine Learning training. This cooperation demonstrates our commitment to providing learners with the fundamental skills necessary to shape the future of technology.
Together, we want to help professionals from all around the world flourish in the exciting and innovative field of artificial intelligence.
The programme’s interdisciplinary approach improves technical abilities and enables students to capitalize on the growing need for qualified AI experts, which is up 23.1% year on year. Upon completion of the study, students will obtain a prestigious diploma from the E&ICT Academy at IIT Guwahati, demonstrating their competency in advanced AI principles.
They will also get access to special hackathons, question-and-answer sessions organized by IBM, and a campus immersion program at IIT Guwahati. Participants can also receive the prestigious ‘Executive Alumni Status’ from the E&ICT Academy at IIT Guwahati, which will boost their professional credentials and networking prospects.
CONCLUSION : Simplilearn has launched a Professional Certificate Programme in Generative AI and Machine Learning in collaboration with IIT Guwahati’s Electronics & ICT Academy. The program provides professionals with cutting-edge capabilities in generative AI, machine learning, deep learning, and specialized fields like computer vision and natural language processing.
