Nick Camilleri
What leaders say...
“As a manager, I needed to understand what AI adoption actually looks like for my team - not the vendor pitch version. The program gave me a practical framework for rolling out agentic workflows across my org and measuring real adoption, not just seat licenses.”

Vineet Joglekar
Software Development Manager, Amazon
“I've been doing ML for years, but agentic workflows are a different discipline. The program taught me patterns I hadn't seen - how to orchestrate multi-step agents, handle failures gracefully, and integrate them into existing CI/CD pipelines. It filled a gap traditional ML didn't cover.”

Safir Merchant
Machine Learning Software Engineer
“This program is totally worth the investment. I had several interviews in the past where I'd freeze and make silly mistakes. Going through the mock interviews was super helpful — the structured practice gave me confidence I didn't have before.”
Senior Site Reliability Engineer, Twitter
“As an experienced engineer at Microsoft, I had a clear idea of the bar to clear — but hadn't practiced in years. The course was intense: 2+ hours every day for two months. And it works. All that practice had a long-lasting effect on my ability as a software engineer. I am simply faster at coding than I ever was.”

Senior Software Engineer, Meta (ex-Microsoft)
“Acceler provides a solid platform to not only strengthen your skills — I've had the pleasure of meeting some of the best and brightest minds in the industry. If you are looking for more than just a bootcamp, I would wholeheartedly suggest Acceler.”

Senior Engineer
“For working professionals, going through examples and different perspectives is incredibly valuable. The structure helped me understand each problem deeply. The high sense of camaraderie in the cohort and mock interviews with practitioners were super helpful in finding my weaknesses.”

Mike Kane
Senior Software Engineer
“All of the practitioners were extremely knowledgeable and willing to help. The foundational videos, practice problems, and test questions really helped me. I still continue to look back at my notes and do practice problems to keep my skills sharp. This program is what a lot of people in the industry need.”
