Overview

Many businesses are starting to recognise the significant benefits and the potential competitive edge they can gain from using AI. There's a growing interest from every industry about exploring the possibilities.

AI is a wide-ranging tool that enables people to rethink how we integrate information, analyse data, and use the resulting insights to improve decision making - and already it is transforming every walk of life.

AI is going to change the future. Make sure that you aren't left behind.

Drawing on knowledge from industry experts, this immersive, 5-day hands-on bootcamp will enable participants to gain an understanding of the fundamentals of AI and machine learning and walk away prepared to implement what they have learnt, ensuring their organisation is maximising the value of its live and historic data.
