I’m a 2025 BTech ECE graduate and currently unemployed. I’ve been self-learning AI/ML for a while and wanted to improve my skills further while also getting better industry visibility, referrals, and placement support.

I was planning to join the AI/ML course at ICTAK Technopark. The course duration is around 5 months and the fee is roughly 40k. They also claim to provide placement assistance/support.

Has anyone here studied there or know someone who has? How are the classes, teaching quality, projects, and overall learning experience? More importantly, how good is the placement support and industry connections/referrals?

Since I’m already learning AI/ML on my own, my main priority is networking, visibility, guidance, and improving job opportunities rather than just learning basics again.

Would really appreciate honest opinions or experiences before I decide.

Hey everyone,

I’m currently trying to decide between pursuing AI/ML or Cybersecurity, and I could really use some advice from people with experience in these fields.

A bit about me: I’ve already started learning AI/ML on my own through online resources, and I’m enjoying it so far. But I’m unsure if self-learning is enough in the long run or if enrolling in a structured program would be more effective.

I’ve been looking into institutes like ICTAK and RedTeam Academy here in Thiruvananthapuram, but I’m not sure how good they are in terms of quality, placements, and overall value. I’d also like to understand how steep the learning curve is for both AI/ML and Cybersecurity, especially for someone coming from an engineering background.

So my questions are:

Is it better to continue self-learning AI/ML, or join an institute for structured guidance?

How do AI/ML and Cybersecurity compare in terms of difficulty and career opportunities?

Are institutes like ICTAK or RedTeam Academy worth it?

If I do choose to enroll, are there better options in or around Trivandrum?

Would really appreciate honest opinions and personal experiences. Thanks in advance!
