CAIP - Certified Artificial Intelligence Practitioner Training in Canada

Who Should Attend?

To ensure your success in this course, you should be familiar with the concepts that are foundational to data science, including:

• The overall data science and machine learning process from end to end: formulating the problem; collecting and preparing data; analyzing data; engineering and preprocessing data; training, tuning, and evaluating a model; and finalizing a model.
• Statistical concepts such as sampling, hypothesis testing, probability distribution, randomness, etc.
• Summary statistics such as mean, median, mode, interquartile range (IQR), standard deviation, skewness, etc.
• Graphs, plots, charts, and other methods of visual data analysis.

You must also be comfortable writing code in the Python programming language, including the use of fundamental Python data science libraries like NumPy and pandas.

In this course, you will develop AI solutions for business problems. You will:

• Solve a given business problem using AI and ML
• Prepare data for use in machine learning
• Train, evaluate, and tune a machine learning model
• Build linear regression models
