WE EXIST TO ENABLE YOUR GROWTH.

It is our mission to bring more people into the growing fields of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. We believe great AI engineers and leaders have more than just technical skills. They are strong communicators, collaborative, and open-minded thinkers.

We began FourthBrain with career-focused programs in Machine Learning Engineering and MLOps that created pathways into AI and ML careers. We are continuing to support engineers, developers, data scientists, and leaders to make an impact in this field, with our flexible, accessible education programs. We are also developing programs that equip leaders with the skills to lead organizations towards AI maturity. We are training a new generation of AI and ML engineers and leaders who have more than just technical ability; they have an awareness and mindset of what is needed to succeed with AI.
