Zaka

I recently completed the artificial intelligence Bootcamp offered by ZAKA AI, and I have to say, it was a fantastic experience. The course material was comprehensive and well-organized, covering a wide range of topics within the field of AI. The instructors were knowledgeable and approachable, and they were always available to answer questions and provide guidance.One of the things I appreciated most about the Bootcamp was the hands-on approach to learning. The course included a variety of practical exercises and projects, which allowed me to apply the concepts I was learning and see immediate results. This made the material much more engaging and meaningful.Overall, I highly recommend the artificial intelligence Bootcamp from ZAKA AI to anyone looking to gain a solid foundation in the field of AI. The course is well-structured and provides a valuable education, and the instructors are truly dedicated to helping their students succeed. I feel confident and prepared to take on new challenges in the world of AI thanks to this Bootcamp.

I've been on the hunt for a decent introductory course to AI that is not overly technical and not shallow. I am very glad to have stumbled upon Zaka AI Bootcamp. It is an online Bootcamp, yet the weekly sessions and the continuous instructors support made it a great engaging Bootcamp. Nothing could've made me more interested in AI and willing to explore the field further better than this amazing BootCamp. I look forward to an exciting AI journey and a very fulfilling career. Thank you ZAKA!

In the beginning, I got an email from the university about this opportunity so I was excited to join this bootcamp since I am interested in such topics. The topic about computer vision was really interesting to me which resulted to me doing the project for this bootcamp on handwritten letters classification! For me, everything was new. I felt overwhelmed and confused a lot but the unique experience and the great material attracted me to continue! For my project, I decided to work with my teammate on handwritten letters classification since we both were interested in week #2 material (computer vision), it was hard but really educating and fun. I think that this bootcamp helped me a lot to delve into the realm of AI, this will for sure helps me in my future when I look back and remember the foundations I built in such topics during this bootcamp. Lastly, I decided to take a data science minor in my university (I am a computer science major student) and I will take "Machine Learning" course next semester and work on more projects! 

I first decided to join this bootcamp to gain a more solid understanding of the different fields of AI. I really enjoyed deep learning and computer vision the most even though I have previous experience with both, and I think these two topics would help me as a mechatronics engineer. On the other hand, time series analysis and forecasting was a new topic to me and I discovered how beneficial it is to my major. 
The project was the most exciting part of the bootcamp because we got to choose our own problem and apply what we learned to solve it with AI. I believe the project was a crucial step for us to understand the problems that can occur in practice.
As for my future plans, I plan on utilizing time series analysis within my major especially when I have sensor readings. Moreover, I plan on expanding my knowledge in the field of computer vision.

I joined the certification program after I realized I needed a professional educational institution to help set me on my data science journey. I heard about this program from friends and alumni who were all graduates of Zaka and spoke at length about how Zaka helped their careers tremendously. I was pleasantly surprised at how professional and detailed this program was.  It is astonishing to consider the amount of knowledge and market-ready skills I gained from joining the Data Science Certification.
Throughout the program, I and others who had joined the data science certification would be introduced to new topics each week from Time Series Analysis, Natural Language Processing, Image Data Processing, Visualization with Tableau, SQL, and much more. All the while, instructors would be assisting us on hand and were always available for feedback and assistance. Many of the topics learned were new or improved the understanding of core concepts with deeper and more advanced knowledge. There were also many workshops with working professionals who taught us many hands-on and practical concepts and skills.
At the end of the program, We had to split into teams and complete a capstone project that utilizes the concepts learned throughout our time in the program to develop an AI solution. We also had the opportunity to have a career fair where we met many companies who were looking to hire graduates from Zaka directly. Many of these companies were high-tier professionals and would discuss at length with us graduates the AI and data concepts we would be working on with them.

All in all, I recommend the Data Science Certification Program for anyone looking to get into the Data Science field or even wanting to upskill and improve their knowledge. The program has taught me so many things and I can't wait to take advantage of all the opportunities this program has offered me.

Inclusive Curriculum, Great Supportive Team, Theoretical + Practical Sessions, Weekly Challenges!
Exceptional Experience that gives you all you need to start your journey in ML.
Starting from data analysis and visualization, then practicing on ML algorithms and deep neural network algorithms including Computer Vision and NLP.
You will be introduced to all main concepts which will allow you to continue your studies by yourself.
P.S: The program includes meeting with experts and entrepreneurs in the AI field. 

 It’s only been a few days since graduation and I already miss Zaka | زكا, and how not? When it’s one of the best, if not the best certification program I’ve enrolled in so far.
The Artificial Intelligence Certification program provided by Zaka | زكا is a 16-week intensive training program designed to equip you with the necessary knowledge, tools, and know-how for market-ready skills. 
The program is rich with educational and practical content, weekly office hours, hands-on sessions, and challenges that cover everything from ML and DS fundamentals to Deep Learning and MLOps.This was my favorite part as it provided a way for me to practice and implement all the knowledge acquired each week.
The last 3 weeks of the program were the most challenging, each person had to form a team of 2-3, pick a capstone project to work on, and successfully deploy during those weeks. My teammates were Hussein Bashir and Habib Mrad, and our project is called RooFinder. The project aims to develop one or multiple combined Machine Learning models that can automatically identify rooftops and detect rooftop features like obstacles, material, slopes, and area from high-resolution satellite imagery using ML and DeepLearning Techniques Like Instance segmentation, Image classification, and Image Processing.
I’d like to thank the Zaka | زكا team and especially Christophe Zoghbi and Reem Mahmoud who provided us with the weekly AI content, Fouad A. TRAD and Amanda Hachem who were always supporting us through the weekly office hours and Hands-on live sessions, Mrad Sleiman who was my team’s instructor during the capstone project, Dr. Elizabeth Kassab Sfeir who provided us with the right soft skills needed in our work environment, Laurene Abdallah our guarding angel who always makes sure we’re on track during the week through her daily reminders, and last but not least, Larissa Abi Nakhle the very first person I met from Zaka and the one who’s always cheerful and energetic.
I’m honored to be guided and supported by such great hearts and minds, and I’m happy to announce that I’ve #graduated from this program with recognition of distinction and I’m officially a market-ready Machine Learning Engineer.
I highly recommend this program to anyone interested in Machine Learning and Data Science regardless of the level of experience or background he/she has.
Needless to say, this is not the end of my journey in the AI world, It’s only the beginning as I’m well aware of the rapid growth in this field, but at least I can now say that I’ve successfully stepped foot in this wondrous world...
