    13 Years Experience DRDO
    At present , this is the most comprehensive and effective ML and Data science course available online. They emphasize on implementation of techniques and approaches rather than theory. With lots of hands on it gives you confidence to start with any real world problem if you have data.

    Satisfied with the modules, mentor support and all the services offered. Content would cover every concept of machine learning including the math behind it that gives full confidence while building any model.

    I would recommend this course to anyone interested in stepping into this domain, or to expand their current knowledge. The group case studies and assignments played a vital role throughout the course for me as I was able to truly implement the theoretical concepts learnt during the course which were in line with industry expectations.

    Avinash Rai, Experience: Fresher
    The best part about the program is the faculty and the website experience. I didn’t feel like I was missing out something irrespective of whether it was in a class. In many ways it is better than a classroom experience. The program assumes you are from a non-science or non-mathematical background
