When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

Enable Vectorization in Weaviate is a focused, intermediate course for developers and ML engineers ready to automate a critical part of the AI workflow. If you're tired of manually generating embeddings, this one-hour, hands-on course shows you how to make Weaviate do the heavy lifting for you. You will learn to enable and configure Weaviate's built-in vectorizer modules, such as those for OpenAI and Cohere, directly within your Docker environment. This course requires basic Docker and CLI skills, familiarity with APIs and vector embeddings, and Docker Desktop installed.

This is a practical, job-oriented course. Through a guided project, you will configure a Weaviate instance, define a schema to trigger automatic vectorization, and ingest data to see it in action. Crucially, you will also learn to perform a cost-benefit analysis of this approach, equipping you to make and justify architectural decisions. By the end, you'll have the skill to deploy a more efficient, production-ready vector database.

Module details

In this module, you will master the end-to-end process of automating vectorization in Weaviate. You will learn to configure your environment and schema to enable a vectorizer module, ingest data to see it work, analyze its performance, and conduct a cost-benefit analysis to justify your architectural decisions.
