Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.

The programming language Python is required, previous knowledge in the field of data analytics is recommended. In addition, a good command of English and advanced experience and knowledge of IT operations are required. Practical experience in dealing with cloud technologies, especially Azure, is an advantage.

After the course, you will have relevant knowledge of machine learning. You will know the most important reasons for using machine learning, areas of application and the various categories and concepts of machine learning. You will round off your knowledge with skills in evaluation and improvement.

You will also acquire in-depth knowledge of planning and implementing cloud infrastructures and data storage solutions in Azure. You will learn how to design governance, monitoring and business continuity solutions. Finally, you will prepare specifically for the "AZ-305 Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Expert' exam to master complex cloud architectures.

(Specialist) computer scientists, IT and network specialists, people with practical experience and good knowledge in the IT sector (also career changers).

Machine learning is used in numerous areas of application: the independent development of suitable spam filters for the internet, the creation of precise forecasts of stock levels in supply chain management or the development of purchase forecasts for individual customers or customer segments in marketing. Employees who are qualified in the field of machine learning can be deployed across all industries and are therefore in high demand on the job market.

The globally standardized and recognized Microsoft certifications are among the most important manufacturer certifications with which you can improve your career prospects on the job market across all industries. Specialists with the relevant knowledge are in demand at both large and medium-sized companies.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.

 

Virtual classroom alfaview®

Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face lessons via video technology.

 

The courses at alfatraining are funded by Agentur für Arbeit and are certified in accordance with the AZAV approval regulation. When submitting a Bildungsgutscheinor Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein, the entire course costs are usually covered by your funding body.
Funding is also possible via Europäischen Sozialfonds (ESF), Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV) or regional funding programs. As a regular soldier, you have the option of attending further training courses via Berufsförderungsdienst (BFD). Companies can also have their employees qualified via funding from Agentur für Arbeit (Qualifizierungschancengesetz).
