## Transcript

same. The desks look the same. But almost four in every 10 skills people relied on just a few years ago, they don't work anymore. That's not a movie. That's the World Economic Forum's forecast. And it's already started. Here
are the five AI courses that make sure you're ready ranked for 2027. Number five, never coded and AI still feels confusing? Start with the professional certificate in AI and machine learning. With Michigan engineering and IBM, it
starts from Python. In 24 weeks, you build 12 plus projects, earn three IBM course certificates, and join hackathons run by IBM experts. Number four, your company wants AI and you're the one who has to make it happen. Look at Applied
Agentic AI with Microsoft. In just 10 weeks, you learn how AI agents plan and use tools and work together on seven projects, plus a capstone with Langchain, Crew AI, and N8N. And you walk away with a joint certificate from
Microsoft and Simply Learn. But the next three, that's where the IITs come in. Number three, got ideas for AI apps and want to build them yourself? Go for applied generative AI with IITM Praverak. Over five months you work with
Praverak. Over five months you work with 29 plus tools like Claude and Langchain and you finish 10 real projects. You also get master classes from IITM Praertak faculty and a 2-day visit to IIT Madras research park. Number two,
want AI agents that handle real business work? Check out Genai and Agentic AI with E and ICT Academy IIT Kpur. In five months, you build nine plus agents for sales, marketing, and finance using N8N,
Crew AI, and Claude. And the cherry on top, you graduate on the IIT Campur campus and join 10,000 plus alumni. Number one, ready to switch your career fully into AI? You need real depth.
That's the PG program in AI and machine learning with IIT BHU. 8 months, 18 plus projects, three capstones. It takes you from machine learning all the way to AI
agents. On top of that, you get IIT BHU faculty master classes, a campus visit, and career support with mock interviews. 2030 is closer than it looks. Make sure
you're ready. So, which number fits you? Drop it in the comments.
