The Leading Vendor Independent, AI & ML Project Management Training

Overview | Agenda | Register

Course Description:
The Cognitive Project Management for Artificial Intelligence (CPMAI) boot camp is an intensive, interactive, real-world based course designed for professionals managing AI & ML projects. Successful AI projects are in reality successful data projects. To accomplish the goals of machine learning and cognitive technologies, organizations should not only implement agile methodologies for project development, but data-centric methodologies that leverage decades of best practices in running large-scale data projects. Together this forms an agile, data-centric approach that extends the existing Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK), steeped in the emerging best practices of AI. Based on the CPMAI™ methodology, the course will teach you to apply the approach for your projects and prepare you to succeed with your AI & ML efforts, whether you’re just beginning them or are well down the road with implementation.

This course qualifies for 24 Continuous Learning Points (CLPs).
