Requirements

Data Science business training is addressed to several groups of people. Firstly, it is addressed to people from the business itself. Those who will work with statisticians and data analysts (data scientists, or as they are sometimes called in Poland, "data masters"). Very often, these people will manage projects focused on business data analytics or will invest in data science ventures. In addition to this group, the training is intended for those who will implement solutions focused on data analytics. In the case of these people, it is about presenting a platform for mutual understanding with business that is not very interested in the details of the implementation itself. Of course, we should not forget about the third group. About those who aspire to become a data champion.

The training is not algorithm training. It is also not training in specific big data systems. Separate training is devoted to these topics, but without knowledge of certain fundamental concepts and principled principles, data science projects are doomed to failure. Because the development of technology is very fast, it often obscures the foundations on which solutions that the business can use effectively should be built.

The training does not require sophisticated, specialized knowledge in the field of statistics. Of course, you should be aware that, by its very nature, the material presented during the training is somewhat technical in nature. The goal of the training is to enable participants to gain a significant understanding of data science , not just a general introduction to the field. Despite this rather ambitious goal, the mathematical apparatus is limited to the absolutely necessary minimum. Broadly speaking, the training covers everything you need to understand to design and build advanced, data science -based solutions to business problems.
