Peter Jerald, A graduate of the Post Graduate Program in AI and Machine Learning shared his thoughts, “Thank you for providing such great content to understand and practice AI & ML concepts. During this learning period, I learned every week with excitement. I did a detailed study on course content provided by various learning providers; I never saw such great content, right from the basics (i.e., fundamentals) to advanced topics, whether they were specific to certain pathways or specific to cloud tools. A person who doesn't have programming & statistical knowledge can also choose this course, it covers in-depth topics in the majority of the areas.

There was a famous saying, "Instead of giving fish to eat to a hungry person, Teach them how to catch a fish." This is exactly what this course taught me. During the initial days, I was worried and had difficulty understanding concepts, but day by day, it showed pathways to understanding and solving the problems. Especially the faculty, they have taken a good amount of time to answer my questions and explain the concepts multiple times. They have incredible knowledge and have shared it with us.

Web 3.0 is going to be a game-changer for this upcoming decade. It's going to rule this technology industry. To make myself comfortable with this technological change. This course helped me a lot. It clearly showed me a pathway to reach my destination, and it helped me move to the next level of my professional career.”

This is the 9^th convocation ceremony hosted by Simplilearn and Purdue University. Since this is a quarterly event, the next one will be held sometime in October 2023.
