Hi, I am a full-time working professional in the IT industry. I have an account management profile. I have worked on AI/ML projects over the past 18 months in the capacity of a project manager as it is a relatively new field and requires closer oversight.

Real-world examples in the modules.
I 100% recommend. I went in blindfolded and had no idea what to expect from this course. I have zero knowledge in the IT world and wanted a challenge. This course is so well put together and its materials are very beneficial. During bootcamp I learned about Penetration Testing, Network Security, Networking, Linux, Ethical Hacking, Cryptography and other useful material. Please consider taking this course!
