The Data Science Fundamentals with Python Program

This program teaches the foundational concepts, theory, and techniques you need to know to become an effective data analyst. Participants will analyze various datasets, built a handful of applications, and applied machine learning algorithms in meaningful ways to get real results. Along the way, participants learn the best practices and computational techniques used by professional data scientists. 

From there, the data wrangling topics and lab exercises provide an understanding of the processes used along with the knowledge of the most popular tools and techniques in the domain. The Python content here further demonstrates how to use the Python back-end and extract/transform data from an array of sources including the Internet.

I had someone there every step of the way. They walked me through what could have been a very stressful process. It put me on a path that started an epic journey.

-Kasey, Fort Riley

Everything was easy and my advisor with The Major Group walked me through it all. This was my third time going to college and by far the least stressful enrollment process.

-Felicia, Ft. Campbell

I loved the whole process. Everyone was very helpful and made sure that the program I wanted to join was something I wanted to do. It also helped me put my goals in place.

-Crystal, Fort Riley

There was a lot of help along the way, which was great. It was smooth and everything went well.

-Elizabeth, Fort Gordon

It was easy, simple, and quick. There was someone there every step of the way to help you fill out all the required documents. I would recommend to all military spouses who want to go to school, especially if you’re a stay-at-home spouse.

-Aeisha, Hunter Army Air Field

Everything was very easy to do and got done rather quickly from start to finish.

-Anne, Schofield Barracks, Hawaii

The enrollment process was quick and easy. Lots of help when needed.
