Dear Prof.Ahmed,
I hope you are well.
My name is Grégoire and I am Communication Manager at Agorize https://zoho.email-view.eu/ocgeturl/13ef.4aba358de?l=5a690070-d7fd-11ea-9d36-525400b65433&m=5a666860-d7fd-11ea-9d36-525400b65433&h=bfe958a09580be3078a604faf9dbfeab9b419d212c14d0656b3893e70c3dfa05 .
We are currently holding with Microsoft an initiative https://zoho.email-view.eu/ocgeturl/13ef.4aba358de?l=5a690071-d7fd-11ea-9d36-525400b65433&m=5a666860-d7fd-11ea-9d36-525400b65433&h=bfe958a09580be3078a604faf9dbfeab9b419d212c14d0656b3893e70c3dfa05 for students across Canada, h owever I don't believe we have had many students attending from your academic department, which I believe is a shame since this competition is a good opportunity for them to gain new AI skills, network with Microsoft experts and obtain industry-recognized Microsoft certifications!
The competition - called Discover AI Upskilling Journey https://zoho.email-view.eu/ocgeturl/13ef.4aba358de?l=5a690072-d7fd-11ea-9d36-525400b65433&m=5a666860-d7fd-11ea-9d36-525400b65433&h=bfe958a09580be3078a604faf9dbfeab9b419d212c14d0656b3893e70c3dfa05 - was launched a few weeks ago, and I was wondering whether you would be so kind to relay the information.
The objective of this competition is two-fold:
- Complete as many Microsoft Learn AI modules as you can to collect the most XPs - The CloudSkills Challenge - Accomplish a task based on learnings from the modules - the *Mini-Challenge *Sprints
We are currently in the 5th Sprint - about AI in electric mobility - so it is a great opportunity for students to take part, and it does not matter if they did not participate in the first 4 sprints.
Participation is of course *entirely free, *and students can find more information and register before Wednesday 12 here: https://bit.ly/Upskilling_Microsoft
Please do not hesitate to contact me in case you have any questions about Agorize or the challenge.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you and see how we can mobilize them!
