Course Details:

- Practical Deep Learning For Coders v4, Part 1 (using the new version of the API)
- The videos for Course v4 are not yet available however you can watch the Course-v3 videos. This will be enough to get you caught up.
- People are expected to have completed the material in their own time/pace before the event to be able to fully participate.
- We will space the online events 2-3 weeks apart to give people sufficient time to complete the assignments. It is likely that we will remain online until it is safe for everyone to re-emerge!
- There is a slack channel so if you have questions or need help please ask.
