I have around 20 years of industry experience and am currently working as a Senior Manager in a Private Bank in the Retail Banking segment. I have a technology background in Java with more than 10 Years of experience. Though I am currently playing a manager role, I am very much interested in learning new technologies. Before joining AI and ML, I did a few courses in Blockchain Technology.
This biggest professional challenge was deciding to go back or take up the challenge of learning a new technology that is going to lead the future industry. It was challenging to make that decision considering my current role and managing my day-to-day work as it is completely different.
When I started looking for a program where I could learn everything end-to-end in a structured way, I felt that Great Learning was the better choice. One of my colleagues who joined this course with GL explained the course, content & the way of teaching. I was very impressed. That’s why I chose the PGP-AIML Online program at Great Learning.
The learning sessions are really good, which provide the big picture of the entire module & deep understanding. Hence it is very important to attend every learning session & also providing the recorded session for reference is also very helpful. These mentoring sessions are excellent & have great knowledge of the subject. Also, the way they are teaching & clearing the doubts is appreciated. Though I can study myself with the help of course content shared, the role of the mentor is really important in my success as he is the one who guides me & clears any impediments whenever I am stuck in this long journey. So far, I am getting excellent support from my mentor & I hope I will be getting the same support during my capstone project also.
I am still learning & now I am in the middle of the program. I am very confident that I can accomplish great things in my professional life by implementing the skills & knowledge acquired via this program in my organization.
To the new aspirants, the advice I would like to say is that first of all. They should dedicate time to start with the fundamentals of math, stats, probability, etc. Apart from what is being taught, they have to explore more of their own. They should have a strong determination to study end to end & never-give-up. That is how one can become a complete AI professional.
