"The overall impression of the content covered in this class exceeded all of my expectations. The interface was incredibly user-friendly and I enjoyed the video lectures, the discussions, and the web resources. Having no background knowledge of AI, I was nervous about enrolling because I did not know how difficult it would be. However, this class was accessible for someone like me and was informative for those who had background in AI. My overall knowledge of ML and AI has improved dramatically and I feel that the information that I learned over the past 6 weeks will be incredibly helpful with my future career aspirations. Meeting and networking with my classmates was enlightening to see other people's perspectives and what their work experiences brought to the table with the discussion board responses."

–– Lauren C. | Pharmacy Technician, Yale New Haven Hospital
