Drone Swarm Operations and Al Specialist

The goal of this course is to teach you all the skills necessary for you to become a top 10% TensorFlow Developer.
This course will be very hands on and project based. You won’t just be staring at us teach, but you will actually get to experiment, do exercises, and build machine learning models and projects to mimic real life scenarios. By the end of it all, you will develop skillsets needed to develop modern deep learning solutions that big tech companies encounter.
