The Department of Information Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering, Chubu University has been certified as an educational institution that provides the "JDLA Certification Program" of the Japan Deep Learning Association.As a result, from the graduate school master's program graduates in 2019, it has become possible to qualify for the E qualification that certifies the skills of engineers who implement deep learning.
The E qualification was established in 2018 by the Japan Deep Learning Association (JDLA) as a qualification to certify the skills of engineers who implement deep learning.Although it is not an official qualification, the company that handles AI has a high degree of recognition, such as being used as a reference when hiring by the company and promoting the acquisition of employee qualifications, and 951 people have acquired it so far.However, taking the "JDLA Certification Program" costs hundreds of thousands of yen per person, so the problem was that the number of students was small.
Therefore, JDLA has started the "JDLA Certification Program" certification fee free system, which makes the syllabus (lecture subject) examination and certification free of charge for universities and colleges of technology.Chubu University was recognized as the first to utilize this system.
Since the content of the lecture is recognized as the "JDLA certification program" that meets the latest E qualification syllabus set by JDLA, the E qualification can be obtained without taking a separate "JDLA certification program" from the graduate students of the 2019 master's program. You can now qualify for the exam.
Associate Professor Takayoshi Yamashita of the Department of Computer Science, Faculty of Engineering, Chubu University said, "Especially in the Tokai area, manufacturing is active in both hardware and software, and we are trying to develop human resources who have the knowledge that can be utilized in the actual industry as a university. Deep learning is an indispensable technology for the industry in the future, and I wanted to create an environment where students who can work immediately and can acquire qualifications. "
