GreyAtom is a boot camp style immersive learning program for Data Science, Machine Learning and AI. Aspirants learn technologies for future by working on real problem statements and datasets from GreyAtom’s industry partners.
GreyAtom is building a product called “Commit.Live”, a homegrown cloud based learning platform that ensures that learning stays practice centered, personally meaningful and social at the same time. The product empowers the student with deep qualitative insight into the learning progress with metrics like code efficiency and adherence to industry standards.
Commenting on this Mr. Mitul Thakkar, Co-Founder of GreyAtom said, “Modern employers are interested whether a prospective hire will be able to solve its real world problem and less concerned with pedigree. As a result, learning outcomes become more critical when teaching engineering disciplines. A mix of online-offline blended approach is the way forward. We have built a product Commit.Live where the students login to solve real-world problems based on real data provided by industry partners. Not just a single faculty but the whole ecosystem is harvested for the benefit of aspirants”
