Course Overview
Course description
You will learn how to solve a real-world use case with Machine Learning (ML) and produce actionable
results using Amazon SageMaker. This course walks through the stages of a typical data science process for
Machine Learning from analyzing and visualizing a dataset to preparing the data, and feature engineering.
Individuals will also learn practical aspects of model building, training, tuning, and deployment with
Amazon SageMaker. Real life use case includes customer retention analysis to inform customer loyalty
programs.
