What is Introduction Data Science
Data Science, hailed as “The sexiest job of the 21st century” by the Harvard Business Review in 2012, is an extension of classic data analysis. It involves making predictions and discovering patterns from large amounts of data, providing valuable information for decision-making. In this training, you’ll learn to spot opportunities for potential Data Science projects and take the first steps towards real Data Science work. You’ll be introduced to terms such as the Data Science Cycle, Supervised Learning, Unsupervised Learning, Time Series Forecasting, Natural Language Processing, and Computer Vision. We’ll discuss different types of Data Science methodologies and models, and the importance of correct problem statement formulation and data preparation for the validity of your analysis. The training revolves around the question, “I have problem X, how do I solve this with the help of data?” Participants are challenged to apply theory to practical cases. The training is delivered by practitioners who carry out Data Science projects and are eager to share their practical knowledge.
Embarking on a journey with our Data Science training paves the way to a multitude of opportunities. Our trainers, with their extensive expertise, bring theoretical concepts to life by infusing them with practical insights and best practices from the real world.
