This hands-on course is intended for anybody wanting to learn how to turn data into actionable insights. Students will learn the principles of data exploration, cleaning, modelling and deployment using statistics and machine learning algorithms to solve real business problems.

In the first part of the class, the instructor will deliver a live theoretical and practical demonstration followed by questions from students; in the second part of the class, students will work on a specific assignment. A final project presentation might be required.

Topics Covered:

• Intro to the Data Analytics Process (1 hr).
• Intro to Data Types and Data Management in Python (4 hrs).
• Visual Data Exploration & Statistical Data Analysis in Python (5 hrs).
• Intro to Data Modelling (1 hr).
• Classification Models in Python (5 hrs).
• Regression Models in Python (5 hrs).
• Performing Clustering in Python (4 hrs).
• Group or Individual Project Coaching and Presentation (5 hrs).

By the end of this course, students will be able to:

• Understand the data analytics process from setting up objectives to organizational deployment.
• Explore data from several sources, including the web, excel and flat files into Python. Build and interpret standard statistical graphs including histograms, bar plots, scatterplots, line charts and boxplots.
• Apply machine learning algorithms to regression and classification data models. Communicate key findings to a non-technical audience.
