The free AI training program addresses the growing demand for AI professionals, with the global market projected to reach $1.3 trillion by 2032. 

The training enables participants to automate time-consuming tasks, enhance efficiency, and expand capabilities beyond traditional engineering methods, according to PEC. 

Moreover, those participating will learn to solve complex tasks using AI models for data analysis and simulations, generate creative designs and innovative solutions, and develop sophisticated engineering software without coding. 

PEC has also asked interested participants to register through the official PEC website, scan the QR code on the flyer, or email [email protected] for further assistance.
