Course Outline

Become an effective inspector, critically scrutinizing datasets for veracity and quality before deciding to use them. You’ll understand how to identify reliable data sources, data storytelling, algorithmic bias, and data ethics.

• Identify the possible limitations and quality issues associated with unfamiliar
datasets including missing data or unreliable sources.
• Understand the bias that is being introduced into predictive models through training
data, choice of model, or evaluation metric.
• Explain the ethical and regulatory issues associated with data acquisition methods.
• Apply a checklist to assess whether the data are likely to be accurate and reliable.
• Qualify issues in a data set and diagnose the type of missing data.
• Apply ethical scraping principles to a given scenario.

Jump into the fundamental statistical and mathematical techniques required for data analytics. Understand descriptive statistics, dependent and independent variables, types of missing data, linear regression, and model validation.

• Identify the difference between key descriptive statistics, including the median
and mean.
• Given a scenario, determine whether a simple or complex model should be used.
• Apply the principles of linear regression, including minimizing the sum of squared
residuals, and using RMSE as a performance metric.
• Compute appropriate statistics using a variety of tools, including SQL, Excel,
Tableau, or Python.
• Choose an appropriate model to solve a given problem; justify the choice
of the model used and identify the independent variables.

Develop your SQL skills. You’ll complete this unit with an understanding of the benefits of using specialized tools such as SQL for specific stages of the data analytics workflow, over multi-purpose tools such as Excel.

• Know the difference between relational and non-relational databases, and identify
the advantages and disadvantages of relational and non-relational databases.
• Apply knowledge of Boolean logic when filtering datasets and SQL syntax,
and debug queries that produce error messages.
• Apply algorithmic thinking skills to a series of SQL queries given an analytical question.
• Interpret the results and indicate the limitations of the data given a query.

Explore and analyze datasets using Excel. Learn to write formulas to perform more complex analyses, build visualizations using lookups to efficiently search datasets and pivot tables.

• Apply syntax and commonly used commands for cleaning, transforming,
and analyzing data.
• Justify the choice of analysis, given a scenario, and select the appropriate
calculations to perform for a given task.
• Select the most appropriate visualizations to effectively communicate results.
• Given a scenario, identify the correct order of steps of the analytics workflow
to plan and implement a full data analysis.
• Determine whether an unfamiliar dataset requires extensive cleaning or manipulation.

Analyze and visualize data using the dashboarding and business intelligence tools Tableau and PowerBI. Effective visualization and communication with storytelling will be the heart and soul of this unit.

• Tackle every stage of the data analytics workflow, including handling very
large datasets.
• Identify and apply data visualization tools that can interface with a range of data
sources.
• Determine whether exploratory data analysis is required as a precursor to predictive
modeling tasks, given a scenario.
• Demonstrate the principles of good data dashboard design.

Now is the point to enhance your growing skills in data acquisition, analysis, and visualization using Python programming fundamentals, data acquisition with APIs, exploratory data analysis, and simple linear regression.

• Identify the algorithmic thinking skills that are required to break complex questions
into smaller steps.
• Indicate how Jupyter Notebook is a useful development environment for
data analytics.
• Identify the information that can be gained from Matplotlib, seaborn, or Plotly.
• Determine the significance of certain metrics when performing exploratory data
analyses in Pandas.

Learn the skills you need to work in an organization, as part of a team of data professionals and nontechnical colleagues. The importance of adhering to regulations, data privacy, and security, will also be emphasized.

• Identify landmark legislation around data governance and privacy, including GDPR
and how it applies to roles in an organization.
• Identify the differences between commonly used agile working frameworks,
including scrum and kanban.
• Give a technical presentation in which information is presented concisely for a non-
technical audience.
• Deploy a Python script on a cloud service to demonstrate that continuous monitoring
and analysis is possible.

To round out your education, you will apply rigorous data analysis techniques to solve a problem in two projects: a group project and an individual project. Both will require you to collect, clean, and analyze a data set and create a compelling presentation to share your — or your team’s — insights.

At the end of the course, you will have personalized job support to help you transition into a Data Analyst role. In sessions held throughout the course, you’ll work with dedicated career coaches to help you confidently build a personal brand, apply for jobs, prep for interviews, and tackle technical assessments.
