Generative AI: Elevate your Data Engineering Career (Coursera)

Data engineering is responsible for building strong data pipelines, managing data infrastructure, and ensuring high-quality data evaluation.
This course is suitable for existing and aspiring data engineers, data warehousing specialists, and other data professionals such as data analysts, data scientists and BI analysts.
You will learn how to use and apply generative models for tasks such as architecture design, database querying, data warehouse schema design, data augmentation, data pipelines, ETL workflows, data analysis and mining, data lakehouse, and data repositories. You will also explore challenges and ethical considerations associated with using Generative AI.
Demonstrate your new generative AI skills in a hands-on data engineering project that you can apply in your real-life profession.
Then, complete your final quiz to earn your certificate. You can share both your project and certificate with your current or prospective employers.
This course is part of the Generative AI for Data Engineers Specialization.
