Data Science Modelling with Excel
In the 21st century, we continue to see a rising trend in the applications of Data Science (DS) from the use of GrabPay to the example of Siri. The applications of Data Science encompass all walks of life and indirectly every aspect of the business – from how business acquires data to how data contributes and complements with the traditional intuitive decision-making approach. Data Science will not only continue to shape how industries operate in the near future but also revolutionise how firms harness Data to its full potential.
Data Storytelling with Visualisation
A picture speaks a thousand words. According to the World Economic Forum, the world produces 2.5 quintillion bytes of data daily and we need to be able to quickly and effectively understand what data means and be able to make decisions based on numbers and patterns. Data visualisation helps us to identify patterns, trends, understand relationships and provide better data presentation through visuals such as graphs, charts, and information visuals.
