About This Event

Data Analytics Jumpstart Workshop

Considering a career upgrade or change? Maybe you've started exploring data on your own, and want to find out if you're on the right track.

How do data analysts work? What are the tools they use? What is their process like?

Data Analytics Jumpstart is a community workshop that will get your journey started with data analytics. You'll first be introduced to the data science workflow, walk through an actual data analytics project, and then experience using Python to analyze your first data project.

Is this workshop for you?

  • You want to add Python & data analytics to your skill set.
  • You're considering a career in data analytics, but unsure.
  • You are suddenly tasked with data projects at work.

What will be covered?


An Introduction to Data Analytics

How does data analytics work and how does it provide value for a business? Data analysts usually help a business do one of two things – increase revenue or reduce operation costs. Learn everything about data analytics at the workplace and discuss the pathways to turn it into a career. 

The Data Analytics Workflow

Discover the data analytics workflow by dissecting a real-world data project. You will see all parts including how data is collected, cleaned, merged, and explored to create visualization and present findings. 

Data Analytics Hands-On

Put your hands on Python, the most popular programming language used by data scientists. Python is a beginner-friendly programming language, thanks to its straightforward syntax. Plus, it is an in-demand programming tool (you'll see it in most job requirements for data analysts) used for big data analysis, data wrangling, and to building complex machine learning models.

In this workshop – we'll start with the fundamentals of using Python for data analysis.

This will provide you with the know-how and momentum to build your skills in Python for data analytics. And with additional practice, be able to take on real data analytics projects.

What is required

  • A laptop. (As long as your computer runs a browser, that's fine.)
  • No prior coding, analytics, or tech training required.
  • Basic computer skills. (You should know how to use common programs like a browser, Microsoft Excel and the internet)
