ESTERDAY 餐厅, 华为在北京召开HCNA-AI发布会. The announcement of the Huawei’s AI engineering certification is the first step for the Chinese multinational to build an artificial intelligence talent certification system. 以“永不停止学习”为主题, 用 AI 创造未来”, 华为欢迎超过 100 教育 工作者, 学术专家, 华为培训合作伙伴, 大学教授, 学生和 AI 技术爱好者. 这项专为技术专业人士设计的新认证旨在通过人才发展来促进人工智能技术和行业的发展, 它最终将促进希望在数字经济中产生影响的企业的技术进步.
Huawei Launches HCNA-AI Certification
Building a sustainable talent ecosystem in the AI era
Bradd Feng, 全球培训总监 & 认证部. 华为企业BG, 说: “配合国家人工智能发展战略, 我们正面临着不断增长的人才需求的挑战; 华为与全球知名高校和行业专家合作,为人才培养进行了新的布局. This new professional certification with the updated college curriculum will stimulate a stronger talent supply and will allow professionals to access a new world of opportunities.”
Professor Wang Wanliang, 浙江工业大学计算机科学与技术学院院长, 指出: “华为推出 AI 工程认证是 AI 领域培训的革命性里程碑. 作为参与学术界的技术领导者, we are looking forward to see that Huawei continues to develop the AI professional program certification and bridge the gap between academic institutions and enterprises by providing on-going training to college students and IT professionals.”
Professor Wu Fei, 浙江大学计算机学院副院长、人工智能研究院院长, 在其 “人工智能跨学科人才培养” 演示文稿解释: “人工智能是一个独立的研究领域, 但与此同时, 它包括尖端技术和各种学科. 该领域的跨学科性质需要跨学科技能; universities should cooperate with enterprises to build artificial intelligence innovation and bring together multifaceted talents.”
Huawei certification is one-step ahead
Zhang Zhifeng, chief architect of Huawei’s artificial intelligence certification, introducing the certification structure concept said: “Huawei’s artificial intelligence engineering certification offers fundamental knowledge of artificial intelligence and provide industry-specific applications. “
The certification framework has four characteristics:
- Grounded on solid theory and leading technology
The HCNA-AI learning material provides the basic mathematics and machine learning knowledge necessary for deep learning. At this level, the students will be guided to gradually understand the related techniques of deep learning, 如, convolutional neural networks, cyclic neural networks, regularization, optimizers, 等。, and introduce deep learning in applications areas, 如, computer vision, speech recognition, and natural language processing.
- Strong framework and extensive application
HCNA-AI uses the mainstream TensorFlow framework and supports Keras (a high-level neural network API, Theano/TensorFlow-based deep learning framework written in Python), which is widely used, powerful, and has excellent compatibility and timeliness.
- Convenient platform with anytime learning mode
The experimental environment of the HCNA-AI certification course can be accessed to the ECS (Elastic Cloud Server) on the Huawei Cloud, and then installed according to the manual. The installed environment will have a separate IP, username and password, so that students will be able to log in to the lab environment and learn any time with a network connection.
- Practical and up-to-date
The HCNA-AI certification program offers programming exercises, including image recognition battle, speech recognition contest and human-machine dialogue, so that students can practice what they have learned.
Bridging the tech skills gap by providing a talent ecosystem
At present, there is a huge talent gap in the artificial intelligence field. Huawei as technology leader actively takes action to attract top talent and develop an ICT professional community by providing an ecosystem for learners across the globe. To address the tech skills gap and to meet the needs of various industry, Huawei will officially release the complete AI development strategy and talent development plan at HUAWEI CONNECT in Shanghai this coming October.
Facing future challenges, Huawei will build a sound talent ecosystem and continuously output high-quality ICT talents for the industry through a global influential ICT certification system; deepen university-enterprise cooperation to promote talent development and innovation by co-building Huawei ICT Academy; help achieve efficient match of talent supply and demand to bridge talent gap by holding Huawei ICT Competition and Huawei ICT Job Fair in the world wide, and ultimately, promote the healthy and sustainable development of ICT industry.
HUAWEI CONNECT 2018 – “激活智能” – will be held at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center and Expo Center from October 10 自 12.
This year’s HUAWEI CONNECT conference is designed to help all businesses and organizations step over the threshold and stake their claim in the intelligent world. You will be joined by the best minds in the industry – including global ICT leaders, industry experts, and ecosystem partners – to chart the way forward and explore new opportunities.
