NEW: AI and ML Learning Paths at QCon San Francisco 2019
QCon has launched two new AI and ML Learning Paths taking place on November 14-15th:
- Introduction to AI/ML for Software Engineers
- Building Machine Learning Pipelines and Deploying ML Models From Scratch
Running over 2 days, each Learning Path will teach you the essential tools, practices, and techniques that will equip you with practical AI and ML skills that you can use immediately. You will get hands-on experience and engage in practical assessments to apply and reinforce your learning. Both Learning Paths are developed and delivered by software engineers that are practicing experts within this domain. The AI and ML Learning Paths have been created especially for anyone currently working within professional software development that is aiming to take their career to the next level, from software engineers and software architects to software managers and technical leaders. Learn more about the Learning Paths and the teachers.
