What this is
The course pairs theory with practice throughout: Q-learning, Deep Q-Networks, policy gradients, Unity ML-Agents environments. Every unit ends in an exercise whose result you publish to the Hub.
80% earns a Certificate of Completion and 100% a Certificate of Honors. The deadline has been removed, so you work at your own pace rather than waiting for a cohort.
Who it is for
Anyone who already knows Python and ML basics and wants depth in one specific subfield.
