Suits people who already code in Python and want guided, hands-on practice building and evaluating machine learning models with a tutor. What stands out is the live weekly webinar format with a University of Oxford certificate on passing. The main caveat is the entry bar: programming experience and the content of the provider's Python introduction course are expected, plus about 100 study hours, at £430. A free, self-paced alternative is fast.ai's Practical Deep Learning for Coders.
A ten-week live online course from Oxford Lifelong Learning on machine learning, deep learning and natural language processing in Python. Weekly evening webinars use Jupyter Notebooks and libraries such as scikit-learn, TensorFlow and PyTorch, focusing on tools and methods over theory. Prior programming experience is required.
