On September 27, the technology company Roosh is planning to launch AI ​​HOUSE CLUB, an online platform for training Ukrainian AI specialists. There will be teaching leading specialists in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) ​​and Machine Learning (ML) industries. According to the Ukrainian IT entrepreneur and founder of the Roosh technology company Sergey Tokarev, the platform will host cohort-based courses, mentoring sessions with workshops, and discussing clubs on the latest scientific research papers.

According to Tokarev, AI HOUSE CLUB will provide training in mini-groups so that same-level students can complete a comprehensive training program simultaneously. Participants will conduct case studies and develop projects both individually and in teams.

Among the teachers of the educational platform, there are Dmytro Voitekh (Lead ML Engineer at Proxet/GIPHY), Roman Kyslyi (Ph.D. in Computer Science, Former Data Lead at Deloitte), Volodymyr Sydorskyi (Deep Learning Engineer at Respeecher, Kaggle Competition Master), Viktor Didkovskyi (Senior ML Engineer at Energi.ai).

Students will have an opportunity to take the following courses:

  • MLOps. Deep dive into modern ML productionalization

  • Product School for ML experts: from 0 to 1

  • Fake News Detection

  • Natural Language Processing: Trends & Solutions

"The key task of Roosh is to develop the product IT and AI spheres in Ukraine, in particular with the help of education. Creating the new AI HOUSE CLUB platform is aiming at, first of all, providing relevant approaches to education. We've combined the practical experience of teachers, constant online facilitation, and support within the community. Such an approach to education will allow specialists to significantly accelerate their professional development," says Sergey Tokarev.

Bogdan Ponomar, CEO of AI HOUSE CLUB, adds that the courses are designed for professionals who want to refresh or improve their knowledge. To enter, applicants must describe their past AI experience and explain their motivation to join the AI HOUSE CLUB.

"This important step will allow us to create such a cohort of students that will allow the participants to provide each other with even more benefit than any teacher could do," adds Ponomar.

Sergey Tokarev also notes that during September, the platform will host various events for ML/AI specialists in exchange for a donation to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as free Research Paper Clubs to dive into the research environment.
