Data science and machine learning are two of the most important disciplines to emerge in technology in recent years, and at their heart is the understanding and management of data.

This five-day course will guide you through the world of data science (DS) and machine learning (ML) using the Python programming language and data management principles. At the end of the course you will have a thorough understanding of analytics and automation, and will have developed practical skills in Python targeted towards data analysis so you can create sophisticated models.

Through a combination of lectures, demonstrations and exercises, you will gain practical experience applying DS and ML techniques to real data. This course is essential for individuals who want to leverage the power of data science and machine learning to drive organisation development.
