General information

There is an ever growing need to also, next to the well-known business intelligence (BI)-applications like reports, dashboards and OLAP, develop Machine Learning, Data Mining, Artificial Intelligence (simply, Data Science) applications for and together with users. In this course we will dive into the differences between Business Intelligence, Datawarehousing, Big Data and Data Science. We will show what Data Science is, why it is interesting for BI and Datawarehouse professionals and how you can put it in to practice.

Your results Data Science Essentials
After following this course you will be able to identify different concepts and steps in Data Science, talk about and give advice on tools and implementation.
You will get insight in:

  • The fundamental role of Data Science in the current data landscape
  • The differences and similarities with Business Intelligence
  • The various forms of Data Science: Data Mining, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
  • Concrete real-world Data Science examples
  • A deepening in the different algorithms for Data Science
  • An overview of well-known and lesser known tools
  • Different demos of Data Science Tools (Microsoft, Tibco, RapidMiner, …)

This course is focused on everyone with a Business Intelligence and Datawarehousing background who wants to get to know the possibilities of Data Science.

Program

During the course you will get insight into fundamental and up-to-date developments within the Data Science expertise and which question you are able to solve with Data Science. The focus is on creating insight in the cohesion between the diverse subjects.
