DESCRIPTION:Data Science Is the Future of Everything&#13\;\nPredictive Mo
 deling and Analytics with R&#13\;\n&#13\;\nJoin us for our Predictive Mo
 deling and Analytics workshop on Saturday\, November 10th\, 2018\; featu
 ring Martin Jetton\, with 30+ years of advanced supply chain analytics\,
  predictive analytics\, and statistical consulting experience. In his pr
 evious role\, he was the Senior Predictive Consultant at Corios\; where 
 he developed predictive models and scorecards\, forecast trends\, identi
 fy uncertainties\, and assign the ideal strategies to maximize performan
 ce.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThe world has now turned into a digital workspace. On
 line activity and real-world sensors are generating torrents of data abo
 ut everything from weather to crime to our buying habits. Increasing com
 puter power and new analytical techniques promise to turn masses of raw 
 data into actionable intelligence—and thereby transform a variety of ind
 ustries and propel us to a data-driven economy. According to analysts\, 
 the Data Analytics market will be almost $50B by 2020. Coupled with the 
 estimation that by 2019 there will nearly 1.2 million open data jobs wit
 h no one to fill them*\, it is clear that understanding and communicatin
 g with data will be critical for impact. The skills needed to be a Busin
 ess Analyst\, Data Analyst\, or Data Scientist are all about to be in re
 al demand\, and our trainings with experience Data Science Practitioners
  will help you get head start! (*International Data Corporation).&#13\;\
 n&#13\;\n&#13\;\nHOW COMPANIES ARE USING R?&#13\;\nFacebook - For behavi
 or analysis related to status updates and profile pictures.&#13\;\nGoogl
 e - For advertising effectiveness and economic forecasting.&#13\;\nTwitt
 er - For data visualization and semantic clustering&#13\;\nMicrosoft - A
 cquired Revolution R company and use it for a variety of purposes.&#13\;
 \nXbox uses R for a great gaming experience.&#13\;\nUber - For statistic
 al analysis&#13\;\nAirbnb - Scale data science.&#13\;\nIBM - To help cre
 ate IBM Watson\, an open\, cognitive computing technology platform that 
 represents a new era in computing where systems understand the world lik
 e humans do: through senses\, learning\, and experience.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n
 This course will introduce you to some of the most widely used predictiv
 e modeling techniques and their core principles. By taking this course\,
  you will form a solid foundation of predictive analytics\, which refers
  to tools and techniques for building statistical or machine learning mo
 dels to make predictions based on data. You will learn how to carry out 
 exploratory data analysis to gain insights and prepare data for predicti
 ve modeling\, an essential skill valued in the business.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n
 WHY R PROGRAMMING FOR PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS?&#13\;\nR is a programming la
 nguage originally written for statisticians to do statistical analysis\,
  including predictive analytics. It’s open-source software\, used extens
 ively in academia to teach such disciplines as statistics\, bioinformati
 cs\, and economics. From its humble beginnings\, it has since been exten
 ded to do data modeling\, data mining\, and predictive analysis.&#13\;\n
 &#13\;\nABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR&#13\;\nMartin Jetton has 30+ years of advan
 ced supply chain analytics\, predictive analytics\, and statistical cons
 ulting experience. He's currently a Principal at the Liberty Advisor Gro
 up\, where he works in advanced supply chain analytics. In his previous 
 role\, he was the Senior Predictive Consultant at Corios\; where he deve
 loped predictive models and scorecards\, forecast trends\, identify unce
 rtainties\, and assign the ideal strategies to maximize performance. The
  firm’s clients are in the banking\, brokerage\, credit\, utilities and 
 healthcare industries.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nSOLD OUT?&#13\;\nThis is one of ou
 r high demand classes. In the case\, we sale out\; email us at ibeafound
