Amazon SageMaker Studio for Data Scientists

The three-day, advanced level course helps experienced data scientists build, train, and deploy ML models for any use case with fully managed infrastructure, tools, and workflows to reduce training time from hours to minutes with optimized infrastructure. This course includes presentations, demonstrations, discussions, labs, and at the end of the course, you’ll practice building an end-to-end tabular data ML project using SageMaker Studio and the SageMaker Python SDK.
