Data Science Fundamentals with Python
Overview
This program teaches the foundational concepts, theory, and techniques you need to know to become an effective data analyst. Participants will analyze various datasets, built a handful of applications, and applied machine learning algorithms in meaningful ways to get real results. Along the way, participants learn the best practices and computational techniques used by professional data scientists.
From there, the data wrangling topics and lab exercises provide an understanding of the processes used along with the knowledge of the most popular tools and techniques in the domain. The Python content here further demonstrates how to use the Python back-end and extract/transform data from an array of sources including the Internet.
Certification
Learners who complete this program are eligible to participate in an optional volunteer externship opportunity with a local company/agency/organization whose work aligns with this area of study in order to gain valuable hands-on experience. As learners progress through their eLearning program, an Externship Coordinator will reach out to coordinate placement.
Note: Additional documentation including health records, immunizations, drug-screening, criminal background checks, etc. may be required by the externship facility.
