Data Science for Business

Data Science can be extremely successful in practice when the right models and algorithms are used to answer important business questions, existing domain knowledge is applied, and Data Scientists work closely with other relevant stakeholders.

In this 3-day training, you will learn how to successfully apply Data Science and Analytics in your own organization. Not by doing the complex calculations yourself, but by understanding how Data Science can help you achieve your business objectives and how to work effectively with the Data Scientists in your organization. In short: an inspiring and educational introduction for anyone who encounters Data Science in their work.

Our 3-day program is highly interactive and includes a game each day, allowing you to experience different aspects of Data Science first-hand. We also illustrate the topics with examples from projects we have carried out for and with our clients.

In brief, the program covers the following topics:

• Inspiration and applications
• A step-by-step approach and its relationship with other improvement programs
• Sales Game: who is the best Sales Manager?
  • The relationship between process knowledge, Data Science and the interpretation of results
• Learning from data: what can descriptive methods teach you?

Being interactive also means that, for each topic, we make the connection to your day-to-day work. This gives you the opportunity to start applying what you have learned directly within your own organization.
