Practical questions.
This is a workshop – you’ll learn by doing. And ask your questions live.
Like – how to analyse data with Excel? How much do companies offer junior data roles? What’s the best way to get started?
We’ll be happy to share. The more we teach, the more we learn.
Why pick up data analytics?
Computers are silly on their own. It’s only when you train them, that they become intelligent.
With data analytics skill – you train computers to recognize patterns, trends, data insights, and build models.
You can transform your work with predictive analytics, even with the smallest dataset.
Why data science anyway?
You always wanted to be respected and recognize as a problem-solver.
Well, pick up data skills and take part in the fast-growing industry – in 2021 & beyond.
Become a problem solver
To be an effective problem-solver, you need data and insights.
Data science is an in-demand skill
You see data science applications everywhere, across industries.
Become data-driven & insightful
Develop superpower from your data and foresee events before it happens.
A paycheck that you're worth for
Data science is highly-demanded with talent shortage locally.
I’m an retailer, how is this relevant?
Data exists in all professions – whether you’re an engineer, marketer, financial pro, accountant or someone in creative arts.
Medical
Identify specific health risk factors, indicators of patient’s health status and reduce adverse events.
Engineer
Optimize machine utilization, prompt maintenance to help avoid easily preventable issues, and reporting.
Executive
Help to guide your decisions, set priorities, and determine where to invest your time and resources – smartly.
