Build Your AI Strategy

Introduction to Vertex Forecasting and Time Series in Practice teaches you how to build, deploy, and monitor forecasting models using Vertex AI — Google Cloud’s unified machine learning platform.

Suited to professionals working with data and machine learning, this course develops a practical understanding of how to create accurate, actionable forecasts using time series data. You’ll work through the full forecasting workflow, from preparing data to deploying models at scale.

This course explores the key fundamentals of time series forecasting, including:

  • Time series and sequence model fundamentals
  • Data preparation using BigQuery and Vertex managed datasets
  • Training, evaluating, and deploying forecasting models with AutoML and Vertex AI Pipelines

You’ll gain hands-on experience applying these concepts using a real-world retail dataset, building end-to-end forecasting solutions that span data ingestion, model training, deployment, and monitoring.
