Course: Intro to ML from an LLM Standpoint
Most students were already in the field, tackling real AI challenges — from building models and AI agents to applying flexible AI frameworks in specific industries. The lecturers were both researchers and practitioners deeply passionate about AI. This course went well beyond 36 hours of content.
Job: Machine Learning Research Engineer
Course: Practical Generative AI
Excited to have completed the Practical Generative AI course by Nebius Academy! Over four months, I gained hands-on experience with LLMs, vision transformers, generative models, and efficient deep learning techniques. This program expanded my skills and deepened my understanding of Generative AI. Huge thanks to Stanislav Fedotov, Yana Vashkevich, and the entire team for an incredible learning experience!
