Data analysis is fundamentally changing - are you prepared?

The last decade has seen a transformative rise in the role of data in organisational decision-making. Data has grown in size and variety, requiring a new breed of analysts who can apply cutting-edge techniques at scale while producing actionable insights.

In this nationally recognised skill set, you will learn how to wrangle data from various sources, collate and report on this data, and learn the fundamentals of machine learning and clustering techniques.

The course introduces programming in Python for data analysis, starting at the basics in the first weeks and following with increasingly more advanced scenarios and applications ranging from traditional collation and analysis to clustering techniques, machine learning algorithms, and related advanced methodologies.

This course also provides a good foundation for further study in the Certificate IV in Information Technology (Data Science and AI) and beyond.
