Intro Data Analytics Bootcamp – Add this Critical Skillset to Your Resume

Data Analytics is one of the most important and versatile fields in our world today. Modern technology has given us access to huge amounts of data, and with this has come the ability to extract useful information and use it in ways that were previously impossible.

The role of a Data Analyst is to find appropriate data to solve business questions, perform analyses, interpret results in a business context, and present these results to a broader audience using visual techniques and methods to make a compelling case.

This course is the ideal introduction for students of all backgrounds to the dynamic field of Data Analytics. Students will learn about the key foundational Data Analytics skill sets and tools, which is simpler than it sounds - chances are, you’ve worked with data before! All it takes is a critical eye and an ability to see patterns in simple sets of information presented in a spreadsheet. Once the basics are clear, a bright future opens up where data can change the world in new and profound ways.

Your class project is where you’ll apply what you’ve learned in the classroom to a real-world problem. This problem-based learning is a method of hands-on active learning centred on the investigation of messy, real problems that you’re likely to face if you explore the Data Analytics space in your future career one day. In this program, your class project will be clearly linked to all of the outcomes you’ll learn in the class sessions, while still challenging you to think creatively and in a forward-thinking way.
