Designed for

This Anderson training course is designed for business professionals who leverage data to address business issues. The typical participant in this training course will have several years of experience with computing technology, including some aptitude in computer programming.

However, there is not necessarily a single organizational role that this training course targets. A prospective participant might be a programmer looking to expand their knowledge of how to guide business decisions by collecting, wrangling, analyzing, and manipulating data through code; or a data analyst with a background in applied math and statistics who wants to take their skills to the next level; or any number of other data driven situations.

Ultimately, the target participant is someone who wants to learn how to more effectively extract insights from their work and leverage that insight in addressing business issues, thereby bringing greater value to the business.

This Anderson training course is also designed to assist participants in preparing for the CertNexus® Certified Data Science Practitioner (CDSP) (Exam DSP-110) certification.
