Analytics & Data Science Course
Course Description
If you want to become a data scientist, this is the course to begin with. Using open source tools, it covers all the concepts necessary to move through the entire data science pipeline, and whether you intend to continue working with open source tools, or later opt for proprietary services, this course will give you the foundation you need to assess which options best suit your needs.
  • Professionals interested in entering the fields of data analytics, technology, informatics, business intelligence, web analytics or data collection
  • Professionals with limited academic and work experience in data analytics and related technology fields
  • Anyone interested in data analysis and data collection
  • Students interested in prerequisite knowledge prior to pursuing our intermediate or advanced data programs such as Data Science and Big Data Programming & Architecture

This interactive Training will be highly interactive, with opportunities to advance your opinions and ideas and will include;

  • Lectures
  • Workshop & Work Presentation
  • Case Studies and Practical Exercise
  • Videos and General Discussions
