Overview

This journey will first provide a foundation of data architecture, statistics, and data analysis programming skills using Python and R which will be the first step in acquiring the knowledge to transition away from using disparate and legacy data sources. You will then learn to wrangle the data using Python and R and integrate that data with Spark and Hadoop. Next, you will learn how to operationalize and scale data while considering compliance and governance. To complete the journey, you will then learn how to take that data and visualize it, to inform smart business decisions.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
