Gain an overview of data science and machine learning - the skills required to be a data scientist. In the Fundamentals phase you'll learn how to clean, analyse and visualise data as well, as how to effectively communicate the findings.
During Machine Learning, you'll solve real-world problems by building regression, classification and unsupervised learning algorithms in Python. This involves data exploration, insight building, and improving and communicating models from a raw and unstructured dataset.
This course is geared towards newcomers to the STEM subjects: science, technology, engineering, and maths. You ideally want to close the gaps in your analytical skills and knowledge. This course is beneficial to beginners and professionals alike, who desire to rapidly upgrade or populate their data science toolkit with demonstrable and practical skills.
Data science is useful to workers in all industries: from marketing to sales, finance to operations, engineering to executive leadership. This course is technical in nature. It is recommended that you have an analytical background (having worked with mathematics or statistics). Experience in at least one programming language would be beneficial but not required.
Understand common data terminology and learn how to define your problems before you tackle them.
Build dashboards and tell stories with your data to be more persuasive with your findings.
Learn the fundamentals of Python programming: working in notebooks; logic and functions; and data structures.
Work with SQL to use databases for storing, reading and updating data.
Prepare data for modelling, build regression prediction models with Python, and fine-tune them for better results.
Expand your machine learning repertoire into classification, train and predict with models, and learn about NLP.
Learn how to cluster unstructured data, build recommender systems and get hands-on with dimensionality reduction.
Get to grips with AWS, the backbone of the modern internet, and one of the providers you'll use to provision data science solutions in your career.
