I’m in the process of transitioning from my current career in teaching to the NLP career via the Python path and while I’ve been learning on my own for about three months now I’ve found it a bit too slow and wanted to see if there’s a good course (described in the title) that’s really worth the money and time investment and would make things easier for someone like me?
One important requirement is that (for this purpose) I’ve no interest in exclusively self-study courses where you are supposed to watch videos or read text on your own without ever meeting anyone in real-time.
I recommend the edX CS50x course. It’s a bit more general about computer science than your ask but, it’s free, an actual Harvard/MIT course, and covers algos, data structures, and programming in C, Python, and JS (last I checked).
Thanks. Is there any proof like a unique code you get at the end of the course proving that you’ve completed it?
Yeah. They do, but the certificates aren’t free and wouldn’t necessarily contribute to a degree anywhere, so I’m not sure what the advantage would be of doing it that way.
To give you a sense of the level of content, here’s an introductory class in ML.
