Hi everyone,
As you may know, SLAS is expanding its short course and workshop-based learning. Due to overwhelming demand, SLAS will now include both within our global symposia programming and partner events, as well as host them at companies and organizations looking to expand employee learning opportunities.
SLAS is currently searching for instructors to deliver the Data Science and AI 101 course programming. Instructors will be paid at a rate of $1,000 per teaching day. The instructor will teach from the course materials provided by SLAS that have been thoughtfully created by external Subject Matter Experts. Courses will be taught ad hoc when requested by an organization or institution. Instructors will travel to said institution to teach the course, with all travel expenses paid by the institution as part of the course fee.
Instructors should have the following qualifications:
- Solid understanding of the principles behind AI, machine learning, and data science, including essential techniques in supervised learning and clustering.
- Experience using Google Colab (https://colab.google/).
- Experience coding using Python, including experience working with pandas and scikit-learn. Knowledge of advanced frameworks, such Keras, and TensorFlow, are advantageous.
- Experience using different types of data models and machine learning algorithms and applying them to life science problems.
- Ability to speak intelligently about deep learning, autoML, and MLOps.
If you are interested in being an instructor, please fill out the application linked here. If you know someone who would be a good fit for one of the above topical areas, please share with them. Thank you!
Best,
Hannah
