Free online AI training

Islamabad:The Pakistan Engineering Council has launched a free online training programme focused on Generative Artificial Intelligence to help engineers develop advanced skills in this emerging field.

Designed in partnership with PakAngels Silicon Valley USA, iCode Guru, and Aspire Pakistan, the initiative aims to enhance the skills and knowledge of engineers, meet global demands, and improve employment prospects, according to officials.

They said in the scheduled 12 months, the programme would train around 15,000 engineers nationwide in generative AI. Participants will have the opportunity to earn internationally recognised certification, complete with a traceable QR code.

The officials said the programme would introduce engineers to generative AI technology, its various applications, and provide practical experience in model-building techniques.

According to them, the course is specifically designed for PEC-registered engineers, engineering managers, university faculty, students, and corporate partners. Key topics will include an introduction to generative AI, an overview of generative models, and hands-on exercises in building models.
