Taking the course
2023 Cohort
We start the course again in September 2023
- Sign up here
- Register at DataTalks.Club and join the
#course-ml-zoomcampchannel - Join the course telegram channel
- Subscribe to the public google calendar (subscribing works from desktop only)
- Tweet about it
- Start date: 11 September
- If you have questions, check FAQ
- All the materials specific to the 2023 will be in the 2023 cohort folder
Self-paced mode
You can take the course at your own pace. All the materials are freely available, and you can start learning at any time.
To take the best out of this course, we recommened this:
- Register at DataTalks.Club and join the
#course-ml-zoomcampchannel - For each module, watch the videos and work through the code
- If you have any questions, ask them in the
#course-ml-zoomcampchannel in Slack - Do homework. There are solutions, but we advise to first attempt the homework yourself, and after that check the solutions
- Do at least one project. Two is better. Only this way you can make sure you're really learning. If you need feedback, use the
#course-ml-zoomcampchannel
Of course, you can take each module independently.
Prerequisites
- Prior programming experience (at least 1+ year)
- Being comfortable with command line
- No prior exposure to machine learning is required
Nice to have but not mandatory
- Python (but you can learn it during the course)
- Prior exposure to linear algebra will be helpful (e.g. you studied it in college but forgot)
Asking questions
The best way to get support is to use DataTalks.Club's Slack. Join the #course-ml-zoomcamp channel.
