Data Science with Python Masterclass E-Learning Training

Deze reis met meer dan 120 uur online content, zal eerst een basis bieden voor gegevensarchitectuur, statistieken en  programmeervaardigheden voor gegevensanalyse met behulp van Python en R, wat de eerste stap zal zijn in het verwerven van de kennis om over te stappen van het gebruik van ongelijksoortige en verouderde gegevensbronnen. Je leert dan om de data te wringen met Python en R en die data te integreren met Spark en Hadoop. Vervolgens leert u hoe u data kunt operationaliseren en schalen, rekening houdend met compliance en governance. Om de reis te voltooien, leert u vervolgens hoe u die gegevens neemt en visualiseert, om slimme zakelijke beslissingen te nemen.

Dit leertraject, met meer dan 120 uur online content, is onderverdeeld in de volgende vier tracks:

• Data Science Track 1: Data Analyst
• Data Science Track 2: Data Wrangler
• Data Science Track 3: Data Ops
• Data Science Track 4: Data Scientist

Data Science Track 1: Data Analyst
