Students will be evaluated based on successful completion of lessons in Phase 1 in addition to their online assessment quiz performance. How manyhours perweek shouldIexpect to spendonmycoursework inorderto succeedinthis program? Between instructional content, quizzes and other course-related activity, we estimate that investing 3-5 hours/week will enable you to proceed through the program at a successful pace and finish before your foundational scholarship ends. If you are awarded a follow-up Nanodegree program scholarship, we recommend investing about 10 hours/week over the next 3 months to complete the Nanodegree program.
- 15. AWS Scholarship - AWS Machine Learning Engineer Page 14 AWS Scholarship - AWS Machine Learning Engineer What will Ilearn? In the initial scholarship foundations course, you will learn all about object-oriented programming, writing clean and modular code, the fundamental aspects of machine learning, and key AWS machine learning technologies. The AWS technologies covered will include Amazon AI Services and AWS AI Devices such as DeepLens, DeepRacer, and DeepComposer. Learners will have the opportunity to work hands-on in a DeepComposer environment. In the Nanodegree program, learners will be able to develop complex and advanced machine learning models in the Amazon SageMaker environment. How will it helpme? Machine learning is expected to transform virtually every industry and customer experience we know today. However, there is a shortage of trained and experienced machine learning developers. Of 23 million developers worldwide, only 1.3% (300,000) have AI/machine learning expertise, and by 2022 it is predicted there will be 58 million AI/machine learning jobs, further deepening this talent shortage. Upon completion of the scholarship program, learners will have developed the skills most in demand in this exciting field. Will Idefinitelyget a jobbasedonthese scholarships? These scholarships do not guarantee you a job. But Udacity students often do get jobs after graduating from programs like these. Check out some . student stories
