Prof. Ryan Ahmed, PhD, MBA
I'm Dr. Ryan Ahmed, professor, engineer, and founder of Stemplicity, where we help people get past the hype and actually build things with AI, Agentic AI, Cloud, and Data Science.
Over the past 10 years, I've taught 1 million learners across 160 countries — 700,000+ enrolled in my Udemy courses, 260,000+ subscribers on the "Prof. Ryan Ahmed" YouTube channel, and 120,000+ on Coursera. I also run corporate AI training for teams at HSBC, RBC, Discover, and Barclays across the US, Canada, and the UK. I held leadership roles at GM, Samsung, and Stellantis in Canada and the U.S., working on electric and autonomous vehicle technologies.
I hold a MASc, PhD, and MBA from McMaster University. I’m also a licensed Professional Engineer and a Stanford-certified program manager with over 60+ published research papers in AI and battery systems.
But credentials are the least interesting part. Here's what I actually believe: "AI is the biggest opportunity of our lifetime", and most people are sitting it out because they think they need to code or have a PhD. You don't. If you're willing to show up and try, I'll help you get good at this.

The lecturer is very knowledgeable about the subject. He's clear, energic and explains well. Makes the subject very interesting
By Michael Robbins on 7/28/2026
This is a great introduction to Power BI (Business Intelligence). I did not know what it was last week, now I can start using it and hopefully never use Excel again for data sets that use words, graphs and numbers. The lessons are bite sized and have lots of exercises to perform along with Ryan so you can become familiar with the software very quickly. Although I do not have access to Chat GPT (which is used to quickly find steps), I just used google on a browser with similar results. User tip: Under visualizations, make sure to hit the ellipse and restore default visualizations (I was not seeing multi row card or Q&A until I did this). Of note, the Q&A visualization feature will be retired by Microsoft December 2026 . Only complaint is Ryan's head is in the way of the menus at times and he moves quickly with his clicking, so I had to pause frequently to keep up.

Good introduction to Power BI, needs an update. My version of Power BI no longer has the multi-row card as a separate option. It's been combined with the other card visual. There were a few other things I had to go hunting for because they weren't in the same place as the instructor, but it wasn't too hard to figure out.
By Anumeha Shrivastava on 3/22/2026
It was informative and well structured with practical examples. It covered basics in a very simple and practical way which made it easy to understand even as a beginner.

usefull for beginners and litlle more advaced required like connection to data source in the last rather than using excel sheet
By Taito Kusagaya on 3/5/2026
講師がとても快活で受講していてわくわくする。また、説明も簡潔でわかりやすく、疑問が出そうな箇所については都度、後で説明するので心配しないでと声掛けしてくれるので、もやもやせずに説明に集中できる。それぞれの講義も2,3分単位なので、集中力が切れずに受け続けることが出来る。
By Arunvikas K on 3/1/2026
