Great Learning

I want to say the Great learning (MIT IDSS) Data Science and Machine learning (DS & ML) program is a special one of a kind. The seasoned MIT professors who taught the concepts and the mentors who handled the mentoring session did an exception job of explaining how to think, approach and solve real world problems with DS & ML techniques. My program manager, Shweta was really supportive. I must say, it's the best training I have had in the last 10 years and it is worth more than its fee. It was rigorous (like the typical on-campus MIT classes) and require the serious commitment of any professional who is passionate about growing their capacity in this field. I appreciate the program and encourage any one interested in DSML to apply. Read less

I have just completed the AI and Machine Learning No-code/Low-Code Program and had an incredible experience. This program does a great job of giving you foundational knowledge of AI and machine learning. I am now able to deploy my own models despite not knowing how to code or being a "coder". The whole program was extremely valuable, and I have nothing but positive things to say about the curriculum. My only minor issue is I submitted for job assistance and resume help but was never contacted.  Read less

I recently completed a data science bootcamp program and I must say, it was an incredible experience. The course design was well-structured and the practical, hands-on approach to using Python was extremely effective. The techniques that were taught were up-to-date and could be easily applied to real-world business scenarios.The instructors and mentors were patient and always willing to address any questions or concerns that arose during the program. The program manager was also extremely helpful in coordinating schedule changes and assignment submissions to ensure a positive course experience and ultimate success.Overall, I highly recommend this data science bootcamp program to anyone looking to expand their skills and knowledge in this field. Additionally, if advanced and continuous course options become available, I would definitely consider taking them to further enhance my skills. Read less

I just completed the Applied Data Science course at MIT (operated by Great Learning).  Wow....what a fantastic course.  

The course is very intense, so you should know that you're going to need time to work on the topics... a lot of time.    I easily spent 20-40 hrs per week between the live lectures (3 weekdays, with the MIT professors), the live review sessions (Sat & Sun), and all of the review and assignments.  This course feel like you are taking an MIT-paced course.  It's drinking from the fire hose!

But, I learned so much.  I really understand various machine learning models now.  I understand the theory, the performance metrics, the assumptions, and I can critique the models.  In addition, we covered Python, and we covered EDA (exploratory data analysis) and inferential statistics.  The course really is fantastic.  

Great Learning provided us with data science mentors, and connected us to all the other students (~200) through Slack.  We were able to continually ask questions and work through the problems, the models, the insights.  

I have already been recommending it to my friends and colleagues who are interested in data science or AI.

If you have the desire (and the time!), this course is so great. Read less

This is by far the best learning experience I have had in years. I took my time to research all the faculty and to my greatest amazement they were all professors at MIT and MIT IDSS, with a minimum 7 years as professors in the field of Data Science and relevant fields of Statistics and research. This contributed greatly on the quality of lectures delivered. Their session provided a clear perspective into some of the grey areas I had in Data Science and Machine learning. These professors were remarkable and clearly the epitome of knowledge in these topics. They gave extensive discussions with insights and followup reading materials with emphasis on real-world scenarios and how to apply them, there were also accompanied with a lot of hands on exercises.
 
 My Program Manager Kiran Jhajhariya, you are simply the best!!!
 To all our Mentors at the Mentored Learning Sessions, Thanks for making this program a success for me, I couldn't have done it without you.
 
 Thanks to MIT and Great Learning for this wonderful program: Data Science and Machine Learning: Making Data-Driven Decisions
 I am definitely coming back for Applied Data Science Program!!! Read less

I had the pleasure undertaking the learning journey of the 12-week Advanced Data Science Program held by Great Learning during Sep 2022 to Jan 2023. We had modules on Data Visualization, Machine Learning, Practical Data Science, Deep learning and Recommendation Systems.

We had in-depth sessions by MIT Professors and the industry experts as Mentors. The course was hectic, as I am working full time. We had to commit 10 to 12 hours of time requirement per week. One needs hard work and perseverance to complete the program.

I was highly motivated by the program managers and my course mates. Everyone was always egging each other on to meet the goals in timely fashion and providing helpful tips, without breaking the course guidelines. The program involved working on multiple small projects (~20) to give us the flavor and usage of different data science techniques.

Overall, I am extremely happy that joined the program and now I am equipped to handle the data scientists in any Data Science project going forward. The program has also motivated me to keep learning the data science related topics.

When I jumped into this program, I was baffled and perplexed about how I would get through so much content in such a short time. However, the instructors, as well as the program managers made this program very informative and fruitful. Theory, as well as real-world applications definitely made this course thrilling and exciting. I had a lot of fun coding and writing comments on the Jupyter Notebook, and I would definitely recommend people, regardless of their age and experience, to go through this program and learn about the fundamentals of a discipline that is currently booming in the world.   Read less

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. So much so that I look forward to returning and going through all the optional material. The course was deep and exposed us to the theory and practical applications in the real world. As always you will get out of it as much as you put into it. I feel ready to make smart decisions using data science! This was invaluable.  Read less

My experience with Great Learning facilitating the MIT IDSS Data Science and Machine Learning certificate has been wonderful. I started as a beginner, with no coding background, little math education, and some statistics education from my grad school days. The python basics course was well designed and got me prepared quite well. The mentorship support was fantastic. I didn't think I'd enjoy spending my weekends in the virtual classroom, but our mentor made our classes so incredibly interesting and useful and I gained real-life insights into what it's like to work in the field. The course stretched me beyond my comfort zone. Yet with the support of everyone involved, the hard work was fun, and conquering some complicated case studies gave me incredible confidence that I will be able to apply what I learned in real life. I am beyond thrilled with what I accomplished, thank you Great Learning, my mentor Manu, and MIT IDSS faculty.  Read less

Aditya from Great learning called me when I signed up for the Great Learning program. He didn't give me time to review it online. Continued calling/texting/emails. He did it until I paid. He was very nice. He mentioned to me over the phone, you will get a refund if you don't like it. I did not check their contract as I trusted his words. Later they assigned me to another manager. Shobhit, I attended the course for a week and I felt it was very expensive. When I asked them for a refund. They stopped responding with excuses. Over the phone, they tried to continue by providing different solutions. Then he said I will give you partial funds. No reply for two days, When I emailed them, they said you will not get funds as it was a promotional offer. If I tell them, I would like to continue, they will respond immediately. if I don't pay on time they will disconnect my account. They have power and control. Don't attend their course. It's a scam.
