You will create a job recommendation system for your final project in this module by applying many of the skills learned throughout this program. In the first lesson, you will learn about Hugging Face, a growing, open-source AI community. You will learn about several of their crowd-sourced NLP models and how to incorporate them into your projects. In lesson two, we provide you with a practice project before the final project. This non-graded project provides you with step-by-step instructions for building a recommendation system similar to the final project. You will complete the second project independently and will be graded by one of your peers. You will also evaluate one of your peer’s projects using a rubric with objective grading criteria. You also have the opportunity to demonstrate your comprehension of the final project by completing a graded quiz.
