Course Overview

Learn how to use the machine learning (ML) pipeline with Amazon SageMaker through hands-on exercises and four days of instruction.

Frame your business problems as ML problems using Amazon SageMaker. Learn how to train, evaluate, tune, and deploy ML models. You’ll also choose a ML project to work on. You will apply the knowledge and skills you learn to your chosen project in each phase of the pipeline. 

Course Objectives

This course is designed to teach you how to:

  • Select an appropriate ML approach for a business problem
  • How to use the ML pipeline to solve a specific business problem
  • How to train, evaluate, deploy, and tune an ML model in Amazon SageMaker
  • The best practices for designing scalable, cost-optimised, and secure ML pipelines in AWS
  • How to apply ML to a real-life problem in your business 

Target Audience

This course is intended for:

  • Developers
  • Solutions Architects
  • Data Engineers
  • Anyone who wants to learn about the ML pipeline via Amazon SageMaker, even if you have little to no experience with machine learning.

Prerequisites

We recommend that attendees of this course have:

  • Basic knowledge of Python
  • Basic understanding of AWS Cloud infrastructure (Amazon S3 and Amazon CloudWatch)
  • Basic understanding of working in a Jupyter notebook environment
