As documented by Richard Anslow

I am a highly experienced electronic engineer with a zeal to learn and stay updated with new technologies. My goal is to become a successful CEO of a good company. I want to expand my skill set and contribute my skills and experience to lead a team of enthusiastic professionals. Simplilearn has played a huge role in my career by helping me easily learn and explore the highly popular Artificial Intelligence industry. 

The Journey 

I started my career in electronic engineering as a Boeing Structures Engineer for Boeing Commercial Airlines. I switched my job and started working for Lufthansa Technik as a Product engineer, and in the span of around 7 years, I was promoted to different positions. I am currently working as a Staff Engineer, Systems Applications Team Lead at Analog Devices. I have been working with Analog Devices for over a decade now. 

The Challenge 

I have worked in the electronic engineering industry for about 20 years. I have learned a lot of techniques and advancements during these years. As technology is expanding and evolving every day, I want to explore new areas of technology. Artificial Intelligence is quite an interesting and intriguing field of work nowadays. To keep up with this expanding technology, I wanted to learn the techniques and concepts of artificial intelligence. I tried to keep myself updated with news articles and books, but I needed a good understanding of the concepts of AI. After working in the electronic engineering industry for around 20 years and learning new skills and techniques to take a leap into a new industry like artificial intelligence, it has been very exciting and knowledgeable.

Simplilearn Solution

I wanted to add artificial intelligence to my skill set. But I did not know how and where to start. I surfed the internet looking for options for an easy way to get the best learning of artificial intelligence. I came across some online courses and programs. I started to read about them and compare them to get the best one I needed. I contacted the Simplilearn customer care office to know about the courses they were offering. The counsellor was very helpful and easily explained every course detail. I enrolled myself in Simplilearn’s Post Graduate Program in AI & Ml, Purdue University course. 

The structure of Simplilearn’s Post Graduate Program in AI & Ml, Purdue University, the course is comprehensive and includes various virtual practicals. The faculty members were industry experts who were very well-versed in the topics. Some of my favourite parts of the course were the live sessions in which I was able to have one-on-one interaction with the experts. This course benefits professionals who want to start their careers in artificial intelligence.

As documented by Maria N Nuila 

I am Maria N Nuila, a single mother, part-time worker, and technology lover. I have been working as a Retail Sales Representative, with demonstrated experience. My will to grow, aim for big, and learn new technological skills encouraged me to step forward from my comfort zone. I am glad of my choice, which earned me new projects and a path to a career change. 

The Journey 

I have experience in the telecommunication industry, where I had a successful retail sales representative career. My work experience brushed my Budgeting, Python, Microsoft Excel, Customer Service, and Microsoft Word skills. I aimed to expand my online portfolio and develop more technological skills, encouraging me to look for a good educational platform. 

The Challenge 

I held expertise in previous industries, which made me look for new challenges. The prerequisite for the same is familiarity with the new domain. The prior knowledge was not a reliable and accurate source to be applied in technicality. I chose Machine Learning or Artificial Intelligence as a path to tread. However, the endeavor required a certification, which further needed choosing among multiple educational platforms. 

Simplilearn Solution

I chose the Machine Learning Program offered by Simplilearn. Overall the experience was rewarding and worthwhile. It was effectively delivered in flexible hours, which helped me follow my busy and unpredictable schedule as a single mother. Highly qualified instructors shared their real-life experiences, which was a motivating and encouraging experience. Moreover, I enjoyed a lot through live projects. However, I suggest room for improvement, such as providing captions for videos, more detailed comprehension videos, along with revision books.
