About This Course

The world of artificial intelligence (AI) includes many areas of computing. Artificial intelligence leverages computers and machines to mimic the problemsolving and decision-making capabilities of the human brain. It combines computer science and robust datasets to facilitate problem-solving.

Machine learning can evaluate massive amounts of data automatically. It can also automate the data analysis process and make informed data predictions in real-time without the need of human intervention.

This course is focused on key concepts, such as supervised and unsupervised learning, in these fields. The course is divided into four modules and includes knowledge tests at the end of each section.

Course Content

Module 1: Introduction to Artificial intelligence

Pre-Requisites

There are no pre-requisites for this course.

Finance Options

Wherever possible our training is tailored to your needs. The cost of our training programmes depend on the course(s) you choose and varies according to duration and breadth. Rest assured we have a number of payment options available to ensure the cost of training is affordable and can be worked alongside your other financial commitments. Common ways people fund their training include: –

Self-Funded:

  • Flexible payment plans to help you spread the cost* available at many of our centres;
  • You could opt to pay upfront.

Company Funded:

Requesting funding from your employers needn’t be a daunting task. Many employers support and encourage their employees with their professional development and consider it a worthwhile investment to fund any training required.

What we can help with:

  • Providing a comprehensive training programme outlining learning outcomes
  • Tailored personnel letters
  • Communication with finance departments to arrange payment options (upfront or payment plan*).

Funding & Grants:

There may be the opportunity to apply for funded grants that can help towards the cost of training. These include the Skills Development Scotland ITAs and the ReAct programme in Wales. All schemes will have different terms and conditions that will need to be met in order to qualify for a grant and these are managed by each individual centre.

We’d recommend you speak to a Course Advisor in your local centre to find out whether they are registered to offer any such schemes and discuss your requirements further.

* Terms and Conditions apply. Speak to a Course Advisor for full information on the options available to you.
