My experience as Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador-

I have been accepted as Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador on January 7, 2021. As a part of Alpha advancement, I was supposed to complete a learning path on Microsoft Learn platform. I have chosen Get started with AI on Azure, where I have learnt introduction to AI, machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision and glimpses of AI in practice. This learning path was so interesting and engaging that I started completing learning paths related and advanced to this.

As an Alpha Student Ambassador, I have hosted an event Introduction to Python programming using VS Code with my fellow ambassadors, Anjali Soni and Isha Nailwal to students of high school and of university. Hosting an event is really fun, experience gaining and enjoyable. For this event, I have contacted the principal of my cousin’s school, explained her about the event, importance of programming, coding, Python and its benefits. I have also shared the details to my network and fellow ambassadors also engaged students in their colleges. This was my first event; planning for the event, coordinating with students, discussing the concepts to be explained with ambassadors and hosting an event as was thoroughly enjoyable, at the same time this event helped me to improve my soft, technical and problem solving skills.

I am currently a Beta Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador, having received my swag kit a month ago.
