ASTROLABS DEEP LEARNING BOOTCAMP

In order to participate in this bootcamp, basic programming knowledge is required (in any programming language).

Deep Learning, Machine Learning, AI and Data Science are very hyped up topics that have been highly misunderstood.

In this 2 week intensive bootcamp, our goal is to dispell the myths of Deep Learning, and show you how to build real world applications. We won’t be covering any abstract concepts, it will be all coding and all practical.

This certificate granting bootcamp will focus on five main areas:

  1. In-Person Training on Core Topics
  2. Mentorship, and Office Hours sessions
  3. Remote Online Learning & Blended Learning With Follow Up
  4. Practical and Project Based With Real World Assignments
  5. Open Coding & Pair Programming Sessions At Coworking Space

This data deep learning bootcamp will take place at the AstroLabs Dubai Coworking Space

This program focuses on modern deep learning, data science and machine learning technologies used in the industry that include: Basics of Python, Data Science Coding Basics, Numpy Operations and Data Visualization, Deep Learning / Machine Learning / Artificial Intelligence Basics, Machine Learning Libraries, Using Keras Models, Convolutional Neural Network, Convnet training / plotting and architecture, Classification and Object Segmentation,Recurrent Neural Networks, Sequential Data, Architectures of RNN and more!

  • Teaching Method

    The goal of this program is not to teach you what to do, but have you do it yourself! Each day in the program will have heavy hands-on work using the actual tools that developers use on a daily basis.

  • How Will This Bootcamp Benefit My Career?

    This bootcamp will benefit your career in 3 ways:

    1. You will learn the building blocks of Deep Learning, Data Science and Machine Learning, a very in-demand field.
    2. We will connect you with our network of recruiters, and companies to help land you a job!
    3. In addition to having you build up a portfolio of projects, as a KHDA accredited training institute, AstroLabs will grant a certificate on the completion of this bootcamp, which shows employers that you’re legit!

  • Are There Any Prerequisites or Minimum Requirements to Join?

    We will cover Python from scratch, so no previous knowledge is required. However, attendees must have a basic understanding of programming concepts (functions, loops, variables etc.), ideally with basic experience in at least one programming language (Python, JavaScript, Java, PHP, C etc.), since we won’t be spending too much time on the basics programming.
