Certified Artificial Intelligence Machine Learning Professional

What results have our students gained?

Here are some comments from a global selection of our students!

Henry Cotton (London, United Kingdom)

“My company promoted me into a position as an AI Engineer however I did not have the skills. So I spent ages online looking for a course that would give me everything I needed to get running really fast. A friend recommended me to the GPTPv2 and CAIMLP courses. So I tried them and within a few days I was 80% ready to take on my new role. The labs and exercises pushed me over the edge to gain the ideal skills, really quickly within 60 hours of learning online, that within 5 days I was ready for my new position at work. Thank you for the great and life altering content!”

Fiona Lewisham (Cape Town, South Africa)

“I am so happy I did the GPTPv2 course. I managed to learn how to leverage my Python programming skills with the new OpenAI GPT models to build my own AI solutions. I was so happy with the results, that it opened me to consider the CPP course in Python, to take it even further and truly learn everything I could with Python programming. Now with the skills from both courses I am building my own GPT applications and solutions using Python and I have joined a new company in a position that I am truly enjoying!”

Ian Watson (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia)

“I have been very despondent with courses online on the topics of blockchain and artificial intelligence. I spent months looking for the ideal courses and even wasted a lot of money doing with no success. I came across Obi Academy and videos on Youtube and was intrigued. Looked at the courses they offer and realised the solution was ideal to do both the CBCP and the CAIMLP courses. The simplicity and practical self-paced online training was ideal for my busy schedule. Following the courses I gained the skills I needed within 5-10 days for both courses and I used those skills to apply for a new job within Finance and now I am a blockchain and artificial intelligence manager and I am so happy with the result!”

Janette Wilks (Abu Dhabi, UAE)

I've been a project manager forever, but by January 2024, I was craving a change and clueless where to start. Enter the Obi Academy, praised by a colleague who had transformed after their course. Skeptical but desperate, I dived into the GPTPv2 course with zero Python skills. Surprise, surprise, I clicked with Python and GPT models in hours, thanks to their easy-peasy teaching style. Just 5 days in, I was tech-savvy, a leap I never imagined possible. Revisiting the course for deeper insights, I aced an interview 14 days later and landed a junior GPT analyst role. Fast forward a few months, I'm not just enjoying my job; I'm thriving and leveling up with the CPP course, fully embracing the Python and AI world. Loving every bit of this journey!

Ties van der Tuin (Amsterdam, Netherlands)

In the Netherlands, finding non-USA-centric content that fits EU standards is tough, but Obi Academy nailed it for us. Working in finance, I needed a program that would boost our team's Blockchain and Cryptocurrency skills fast. Enter Obi Academy's CBCP and CPP courses, delivering exactly what we needed. Our staff gained essential skills in just days, impressing us all. Soon, we're enrolling 100 more employees into the CBCP program to ensure everyone is up to speed, quickly and without compromising quality. We're all about matching our sector's pace with the right expertise, and Obi Academy is our go-to for that rapid, high-quality skill boost.

Jonathan Brown (New York, United States of America)

“I was sceptical at the start trying to learn everything about Blockchain and Cryptocurrency, however the CBCP course simplified my process of learning and the practice labs really helped me put to practice what I learnt in the course! This course helped me understand and get to grips with all the current blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies and now I have build my own smart contracts and I have launched my own blockchain and cryptocurrency offering on the market. Thank you!”

Why use Obi.Academy?

1. NO MORE FLUFF

By removing the fluff we were able to create concise and targeted only information academy guides for our subject matters without compromising depth, while still providing relevant links to content/source online for further study, giving the learner a more in-depth path for learning and absorbing the knowledge.

2. BULLETED-STYLE FORMAT

By implementing the bulleted-style format, learners can learn the subject matter without the need to create notes, because ALL the bulleted information is valid, precise, current, targeted and visually they act like notes for the learner. This is used in presentations every day. It is far more effective in books.

3. HORIZONTAL ORIENTATION

We decided to create a horizontal oriented academy guide rather than the tradition portrait style books!
Now we can keep continuity between our PRINT and DIGITAL, so the learner can enjoy the content in any scenario, without having to learn in a different layout. Switching between digital and print is seamless.

4. LEARNER FRIENDLY ASTHETICS

Normal text books mostly use mono colour text, occasionally graphs and graphics. Our academy guides contain rich, soothing colours, graphics, hand-drawn illustrations and most importantly we have chosen a 3pt larger font size, so that learners do not get tired reading and absorbing the subject matter and can focus for much longer hours, ultimately learning more efficiently, effectively and faster.

5. COLOUR-CODING FOR PROGRAMMING CODE

When a learner is looking at programming code for example in a normal text book, usually it is very difficult to read and understand the concepts. We have chosen to implement colour-coding in our demonstrations, separating the different structures of code, so developers/programmers from beginner to advanced will appreciate this mostly because we are visually demonstrating constructs in the exactly the same way they would, in their development environments.

6. QUALITY IN MEDIUM DELIVERY

Digital and Print mediums quality MUST be the same. The quality of the material used in the print front cover, back cover and inner pages has been carefully chosen following market research done on normal text books today. A SILK GLOSS finish for the covers, and a SILK MATT finish for the inner pages. This allows the learner to appreciate and enjoy reading the content,without compromise, and also lends to the durability of the academy guides, outlasting normal text books of today. Digital is of 300dpi so it’s at 5K resolution.

7. LEVERAGED EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE

In Obi.Academy we have the combined experience of 55 years of education and branding. Dimitrios Zacharopoulos has personally written over 200 books and training manuals for companies over the past 35 years in different sectors and is both a technical and creative specialist. Leveraging that knowledge and combining it with the conceptualisation, branding and design acumen of Steve Van Vaerenewyck, we have come up with a wining formula for all our learning projects, courses, certifications and books.

8. PROFESSIONALLY STUDIO RECORDED AUDIO

In addition to our print and digital formats, we have also created professional audio format of our academy guides, recorded in sound studio for clean and accurate sound. We wanted to cater for all sorts of learning requirements and audio is a very important sensory advantage in learning. So our learners can, for example, read their print academy guide when concentrating on a desk, then when taking a break and sitting on their couch they can continue on on their digital copy on their tables and/or phones and if they feel like learning while on the go, they can take their audio version of their academy guide and listen in the car while they drive to and from work.

9. INDUSTRY PARTNERS

To maintain the quality of our products in both print, digital and audio and the quality of our training partners, we chose partners that will work with us to reach our milestones and goals, without compromising quality. From our printing partners to our audio recording partners to our training partners, we have chosen a select few to work with, and to bring the OBI Academy products to market at the highest quality possible and not to do what other companies, books and courses have been doing for so many years.
