This comprehensive guide examines each route: foundational CPD units, immersive bootcamps, accredited online MSc programmes, funding options, planning strategies and a real-world case study. Whether you’re a software developer branching into ML, a statistician aiming to upskill, or a professional exploring AI-driven innovation, you’ll discover how to build in-demand ML expertise on your own schedule.
