Arseny Levin
Fraud Detection Lead at DoubleVerify
Great experience so far! Personally for me, the course exceeded my expectations. I usually stay away from courses since I'm a self learner. Courses usually spend too much time on the unimportant parts (too much history, too much theory, repetitive exercises etc.).
However during Y-DATA courses we ha exactly the right balance of practice and theory.

Andrey Nikitin
Data scientist at Wix
The course is great, I think it's the best professional course I have taken and for me personally it's a good substitution to a master degree (for now). Even though I'm already working as a Data Scientist i still learn new things, there are always fields that I'm less proficient in and the course fills the gap.

It was obvious to me that math is the field for me. I did my B.Sc and M.Sc in math. In the industry, you can do a lot with math, but you must have knowledge in computer science as well.

Y-Data was exactly right for me - it let me combine my background with computer science and strong data science foundations.
Liad Yosef
Client Architect at Duda
You know they say go with your passion, right? I've been programming since I was a kid, but I never really dealt with Data Science or Machine Learning before Y-Data. I already knew the math part of the introductory courses but they were so fast-paced that I wasn't bored and quickly enough we got into supervised learning and deep learning. This gave me the tools to do things that I coundn't have done before, let me explore and widen the area of my thoughts.

Jonathan Ohnona
Data Scientist at eToro
I'm an Engineer. I studied math and physics, and financial engineering. I choose Y-DATA because I wanted a better understanding of the algoritms. When you have access to machine learning techniques, you have access to more tools, allowing you to do more things. For instance, in my field, in time-series analysis, you want to better predict and better focus. Studying in Y-DATA is like building a muscle. You need to work on a muscle to be a better, stronger person. It's a very good program because it shows many things.

Hello, my name is Alexander Kazakov, and I work with OCR and text extraction from images and PDF files at Megaputer Intelligence, a company specializing in text data analysis.

My decision to study in the Generative AI program stemmed from a desire to learn something new. This choice was driven by my aim to keep up with modern technologies and the latest developments. In my work, I already have experience in training neural networks, but in a different area and on a smaller scale.

The module proved to be very informative, and the provided educational materials were relevant to me. I'd like to note the availability of experts for discussions; they respond quickly and comprehensively to questions. On average, I spent 15 to 20 hours per week on the training, but I believe the pace of learning is individual.

Particularly memorable was the first week of the program, an introduction to LLMs led by lecturer Yuval Belfer. The new information and understanding of previously complex concepts as simpler opened new horizons for thinking and action.

The practical assignments were also interesting, especially the last project on information extraction from databases.

The only aspect I'd like to see improved is a deeper exploration of theory. I've already provided this feedback to the team, and they explained that this is a characteristic of the first module. The second module promises a more extensive study of theory. We'll see.

I like the program and trust its creators. I would recommend it to my colleagues involved in machine learning and text analysis. I think the first module might seem less interesting to them due to their existing knowledge, but the second module will be beneficial for a deeper dive into theory and the mechanics of model operation. For those familiar with programming but new to neural networks, the first module will be particularly interesting.

I like to really understand what I’m doing and so I do not finish 3 of the 5 homework. As example here is 7:38 in the morning and 7-8 in the morning is the only slot available in these weeks for me to follow lessons/do homework.

Anyway now that I get the way you teach I can honestly say that the technical content is good and I think to have spent my money in a good way. That’s my feeling.

Andi Mardinsyah
Hello! My name is Andi Mardinsyah, and I work as a Data Scientist at Telekomunikasi Indonesia.

My company is currently working on creating applications for natural language processing, such as segment analysis, and also on projects related to LLM. That's why I decided to study in the Generative AI program – to understand this topic deeper and solve work tasks more effectively.

I had to choose between two Generative AI programs, but I chose the program from Nebius Academy because I really liked its curriculum. As you know, generative AI is everywhere now, and the technologies are developing very fast. It's hard to find an educational program that combines both theory and practice. In my opinion, the curriculum of this program is very complete and comprehensive.

I have finished the first module of the program, which is dedicated to Generative AI applications. I really liked this module and found it extremely useful. Although I am a data analysis specialist and new to Generative AI, I can confidently say that my time was well spent. Especially valuable was the fact that we did a lot of coding during the training, which is an important part of the educational process.

Besides the program content, I would like to highlight its organization. I have a busy work schedule and doubted if I could combine work and study. I assumed the lectures would be long, but was pleasantly surprised to find out that the recorded lectures last only 15 minutes and cover a lot of material. This allows me to spend more time on practical tasks, which are plentiful in the program. It's important to note here that this is not just one 15-minute lecture per week, there are usually several.

I will definitely recommend this program to my colleagues.
I think these materials will be useful for all Data Scientists who are involved in natural language processing and LLM.
