Alumni reviews

Priyanka has a remarkable ability to break down highly complex AI concepts and communicate them simply and clearly. As a visual learner, I found her teaching style incredibly effective, making abstract ideas easy to grasp and apply. If you are just starting out your journey in AI, I highly recommend this 5-week course to build real-world applications and gain practical confidence.

Priyanka's course was an excellent primer into Gen AI and what's important when building in this space. The course content was highly relevant, the exercises were very well structured for learning, and the live discussions were really helpful for diving into the nuances of the topics. The participants were all engaged and from a variety of backgrounds which really added to the experience. Highly recommend!

This course exceeded my expectations from start to finish. The curriculum itself was comprehensive, covering everything from foundational concepts (transformer architecture, attention mechanisms, RAG, fine-tuning) to advanced, business-critical topics like AI agent orchestration, evals, and deployment at scale. The progression from theory to practical application was well thought out and made complex topics genuinely approachable. What truly set this course apart, though, was the instructor-(Priyanka). She consistently went above and beyond for the cohort — organizing additional live coding exercise walkthroughs that weren't even part of the official curriculum, purely to make sure students could apply what they'd learned. These sessions were repeatedly extended beyond their scheduled time, and the instructor patiently answered every question, no matter how basic or advanced, without ever rushing anyone along. This level of dedication made a real difference in my understanding and confidence in building AI applications. It's rare to find an instructor this generous with their time and this committed to student success. I'd wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone looking to build practical, real-world AI engineering skills — the content is excellent, and the Priyanka, makes it exceptional. Thank you for such a valuable learning experience!

There is lot of free information around gen AI on internet which we can go through this course differentiates from other learning platform in various ways first is how to learn GenAI as it gave me understanding of basics which I think now is the correct way to learn it. Secondly it gave me hands on various concepts which we learn theoretically but never act on them. Thirdly I learnt a lot from other peers on the cohort which are working in different areas sharing new perspectives and finally Priyanka and Abhishek were always very helpful, very responsive and genuinely wanted to help us to learn. Overall, highly recommended and make the community strong and help each other navigate AI era together.

This course was very helpful to learn AI agents basics as well as build an AI Application using those learnings. Some of the additional topics covered about AI Ethics and Product Management were also very useful. I would certainly recommend this course to my colleagues!
