About Símbolo
Símbolo is a Myanmar-based AI and IT training school founded on 6 May 2021 in Yangon by Ko Phyo Thu Htet, who started it as a personal blog sharing his own AI and IT learning experience before turning it into a full training platform. It is widely known locally as the country's first dedicated AI school, with a mission to spread AI and IT skills across Myanmar and train professionals who can use these technologies responsibly.
Key Features
- Structured Courses: Take self-paced courses such as the Artificial Intelligence Course, Introduction to Computer Vision and Fundamentals of Python Programming, each built around real projects and discussion.
- Beginner-Friendly Paths: Courses are designed for people with no prior background as well as university students in computer science, IT, maths or physics who want to go deeper.
- Local Language Support: Instruction and community discussion happen in a mix of English and Burmese, so learners are not limited by English proficiency alone.
