Beginner's Guide to Data Science | Free Class
About This Class
It’s predicted that demand for data scientists will grow 35% from 2022 to 2032, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. If you’ve been considering a career in data science, that’s a pretty promising stat.
Join us for a free, 2-hour class to get hands-on practice with the basics of Data Science and see if you’ve got what it takes to become a data scientist yourself.
You’ll learn the fundamentals of data science and how different industries are applying its predictive power to improve their bottom line. Then, get hands-on practice with predictive models using a real-world dataset. Bonus: there will be time at the end for live Q&A with the instructor.
We’ll see you in class.

You’ll leave this class with:
- An understanding of what data science is and some of its broader industry applications
- Basic knowledge of the differences between supervised and unsupervised machine learning algorithms.
- Practice with quantitative, data-driven analysis
- Confidence to continue learning data science
Preparation
- This is an entry level class, so no prior knowledge is necessary.
