Machine Learning Classes Live Online

Enrolling in the right skill level is pivotal. Skipping over prerequisites can leave you confused, while choosing a course too easy will waste your time and tuition dollars.

Beginner Courses

If you’re new to Machine Learning, there’s no need to fear. We’ve found 6 beginner courses, with costs ranging from $929 to $4,999. The top options open to beginners include:

• Machine Learning Certificate @ BrainStation ($3,950 | 30 Hours)
• Machine Learning @ Holberton School (72 Weeks)
• Machine Learning @ Constructor Learning ($1,800 | 6 Weeks)
• Intro to Python Coding for Machine Learning @ iD Tech ($1,099 | 1 Week)

Live Online training is synchronous training where participants and the instructor attend remotely. Participants learn and interact with the instructor in real-time and can ask questions and receive feedback throughout the course. Instructors can remote into students’ computers (with prior permission) to assist with class exercises and any technical issues. The courses are hands-on and interactive like in-person training.

You can attend the course from your own home or office. This option works best for those without easy access to a nearby facility, and it has become increasingly popular during COVID-19.

If you attend a virtual training from your home or office, you’ll need a computer with strong internet access and any relevant software installed prior to the course. Most schools provide setup instructions before the course, and some will provide direct assistance.

The instruction takes place via a teleconferencing software like Zoom, Webex, or GoToMeeting, and some schools have their own learning portals.

It’s crucial to find a course that fits your schedule. For live online Machine Learning training, we’ve found flexible scheduling options, including weekday, weekend, and evening courses.

Courses with multiple scheduling options include:

• Python and Machine Learning Bootcamp @ General Assembly (14 Hours) is available weekdays or weekends
