Your guide to best practices for AI project management
Are you looking to bring AI into your organization? Implementing AI and data science (in production, Proof-of-Concept or MVP mode) projects is an intricate process fraught with uncertainty. In general, the quality of the data, the technological complexity of AI implementation, the level of maturity of organizations and the access to resources can make the development and execution of AI solutions especially difficult.
This introductory program presents the basics of AI project management, focusing on data mining and the use of AI technologies. Inspired by the agile-hybrid methodology and the instructor’s experience in the Montreal and international AI industry, the content is aimed at accelerating your learning curve and providing you with a guide to implementing AI projects within your organization.
