Together, they have launched the Nomu Al Ghurair: Women in AI, a fully funded  20-week Machine Learning specialization program, provided for aspiring Emirati female AI leaders to shape the future of this transformative technology.

Bridging the Gender Gap in AI

The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has traditionally been a male-dominated industry,  creating a significant gender imbalance.

By offering this specialized program, Nomu Al Ghurair: Women in AI works to foster a more diverse and inclusive AI ecosystem in the UAE.

From foundational machine learning concepts to advanced techniques in natural language processing, computer vision, and more, the curriculum is meticulously crafted to equip participants with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in the field of AI.

Industry-Recognized Certification and Job Opportunities

Upon successful completion of the program, participants will earn an industry-recognized certification, solidifying their expertise and unlocking exciting career opportunities. Graduates of this program will hold CertNexus certifications, a globally recognized standard in emerging technology. This achievement not only validates their skills in AI and data science but also provides them with the credentials to excel in today’s competitive tech landscape.

A Life-Changing Opportunity

This initiative is a transformative opportunity for Emirati women to shape the future of AI. With only 100 fully funded seats available, the program is set to be highly competitive, attracting the most motivated and talented individuals. The program is divided into two comprehensive phases.
