Applications are open for the Al4Good Lab 2025 Canada Cohort. The Al4Good Lab is an introductory program to machine learning for women and gender diverse people with some programming background and intermediate to no experience in machine learning. The Lab runs for 7 weeks during the summer and is split into 2 sections (the Bootcamp and Project weeks).
ML Bootcamp: The curriculum section is an intensive introductory bootcamp to machine learning and Al, which takes place over the first 4 weeks of the program. During this time, trainees attend lectures, talks, workshops, and networking events. Trainees will work in small groups with their assigned Teaching Assistant (TA) to practice what they've learned through exercises. The TAs are typically PhD students in Computer Science with specializations in Machine Learning or Al.
Team projects: The Project section takes place over the last 3 weeks, during which trainees use the knowledge gained during the bootcamp and work in teams to develop an Al/ML prototype that addresses a social good issue. Teams are supported by their TAs and up to 3 mentors who work in Al.
