Overview

The course offers 23 CPD credits. Two downloadable books on Data Science and Data Analysis, seven cheat sheets to use Python, NumPy, Pandas and more.

Our primary objective is to equip you with a deep understanding of Python programming for Data Science and Machine Learning and not only with a deep understanding of Python programming for Data Science and Machine Learning but also to guide you on the path to becoming a professional Data Scientist using Python. By the end of this course, you'll have the expertise to land your first job in this thrilling field.

We will explore some of the best and most crucial Python libraries for data science, including NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib.

NumPy

simplifies mathematical and statistical operations and serves as the foundation for many features in the Pandas library.

Pandas

is your go-to Python library for working effortlessly with data - a vital tool in any Python data science project? And with Matplotlib, you'll master the art of data visualisation, creating graphs akin to those found in Excel or Google Sheets.

Our approach combines hands-on projects with a solid theoretical foundation. Starting from the basics of Python Programming for Data Science, we'll guide you through to mastery. The Machine Learning segment of the course introduces you to the fundamentals of machine learning using Python. You'll delve into the distinctions between supervised and unsupervised learning, understand how statistical modelling relates to machine learning, and compare the two approaches.

After completing this course, you will be able to:
  • Become a professional Data Scientist, Data Engineer, Data Analyst, or Consultant
  • Create a resume and land your first job as a Data Scientist
  • Write complex Python programs for practical industry scenarios
  • Use NumPy for Numerical Data
