"Well-Structured AI & Data Science Program with Strong Projects and Mentorship"

5/5

What do you like best about Great Learning?

I completed the MIT IDSS AI and Data Science program delivered through Great Learning. The 12-week structure is well thought out: it starts with Python and statistics, then moves into clustering, regression, classification, deep learning, and recommendation systems. The three hands-on projects helped turn the theory into practical, usable skills, and I also found the Generative AI masterclasses and the responsible AI module to be valuable additions. The recorded lectures from MIT faculty are high quality, and the live mentor sessions were especially helpful for applying the concepts to real-world problems. Overall, the program team kept everything organized, which really matters when you’re also running a company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Great Learning?

Nothing major to report. The weekly time commitment is substantial, so it’s worth planning your schedule before you begin. That said, it feels like a natural part of the program’s rigor rather than a flaw. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Great Learning solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have 20+ years of experience in IT/OT cybersecurity and I lead a cybersecurity consultancy, but I didn’t have any formal training in data science or machine learning. This program helped close that gap by providing a credible, well-structured learning path from a top institution, and I was able to complete it without putting my career on hold. I can now assess AI-driven security tools and data approaches based on their technical merits rather than relying on vendor claims. I’m also better equipped to discuss how machine learning and automation can be applied to security with my team and with clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
