Machine Learning Academy is a Competence Development and Upskilling Training Program Tailored for Finnish Manufacturing Industry.
Machine Learning Academy (MLA) includes diverse learning modules from ML algorithms to ethics, and from designing and managing artificial intelligence (AI) projects to implementing AI in the company business.
Machine Learning Academy uses a combination of theory, discussion, practical exercises and examples of existing application and business cases to emphasize the application of the methods and concepts.
The goal of the training is to increase the participants’ understanding of how to utilize AI and machine learning in their company.
After the MLA training, participants will understand the fundamentals of machine learning, as well as the ability to recognize and manage development tasks that aim to benefit from machine learning.
Machine Learning Academy in a nutshell:
YOU WILL GET
- Basic understanding of the principles, methods, abilities and limitations of AI and ML.
- Current knowledge of related tools, commercial platforms, and implementations.
- Ability to specify, design, and lead activities aiming at applying ML methods, algorithms, and technologies into your business operations
- An Initial plan on when, where, and how you can deploy ML methods and technologies in your business.
TARGET AUDIENCE
DIMECC Machine Learning Academy is aimed for professionals working in the industry.
The course is aimed for the following roles:
- R&D supervisors managing AI/ML development projects.
- R&D engineers participating in AI/ML development projects.
- Employees, who specify, and source work and subcontracting related to AI/ML

MLA 2022 COURSE PROJECT
A major component of DIMECC Machine Learning Academy is a course project that allows participants to investigate how machine learning could be deployed in their organizations and what kind of opportunities, challenges, requirements are related to the deployment.
The aim is to analyse in-depth how machine learning could be embedded in company’s strategies and business. The concrete objectives are:
- Identify potential application areas
- Define business cases and prioritize initiatives
- Define the first concrete projects/pilots
The course project consists of group work, mid-term reporting and final presentation.
Course projects are done in groups. The idea is that participants from same organization form one group. This will help to build comprehensive picture how artificial intelligence and machine learning could be deployed in organization’s business.
Example practical result example from earlier MLA courses:
“One concrete example was Ponsse’s field project, which focused on after-sales services, especially field maintenance of the harvesting equipment where Machine Learning was to be used to recognize the needed oil change interval. Hydraulic oil and filters are currently changed at fixed intervals, approximately every 1800 hours, and optimized change interval would mean remarkable savings.”
