Python for Data Analysis Training Course
Your company wishes to gain insights from the data it has collected over the years. Yet you face endless options of tools and approaches for doing so. There are user friendly UI tools such PowerBi, backend command line tools like SQL, and versatile "data wrangling" programming languages like Python and R.
This course elects the most powerful and flexible tool for the job: Python.
Python is a readable programming language. It offers something that most other solutions cannot: flexibility and adaptability. After the initial investment in learning Python, you can use it to manipulate and visualize your data in ways that would be difficult and time-consuming in other tools.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at persons who wish to learn just enough Python to begin crunching numbers from sales data, traffic analytics, customer interactions, etc.
The training is designed to enhance learning, retention, and hands-on practice. By combining different learning approaches such as online learning, live classroom interaction, peer learning and pair programming, this training aims to maximize the effect of each lesson. It reinforces learned concepts through a mix of pre-learning, interactive learning, and post-learning, all while including a social element that makes the course fun and engaging. The training is divided into three parts:
- Pre-course
- In-course
- Post-course
This training is different from pure online learning in that it emphasizes live interaction with the trainer. It is also different from a traditional classroom in that it includes offline learning and self-paced practice.
A unique aspect of NobleProg trainings is its "pair programming" approach to learning. Pair programming allows two or more person's to collaboratively solve challenging and thought-provoking problems on the same machine. This approach has proven to be a powerful and efficient way to teach and learn. NobleProg makes this possible through its learning platform, DaDesktop. DaDesktop provides a collaborative space for participants and instructors to share and interact with each others' machines in real-time. Video conferencing and the ability to record lessons are just some of the features included in DaDesktop as part of this training.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Install and configure the necessary software, libraries and development environment to begin writing just enough Python code for data analysis.
- Analyze data from sources such as Excel, CSV, JSON files and databases.
- Clean data to improve its usefulness before analyzing it.
- Perform simple statistical analysis.
- Generate reports that present the desired data in just the right format, from straight numbers to charts, to graphs and tables.
- Gain valuable insight from data, including trends in performance, and problem areas to make better business decisions.

QGIS for Geographic Information System
21 HoursA geographic information system (GIS) is a system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present spatial or geographic data. The acronym GIS is sometimes used for geographic information science (GIScience) to refer to the academic discipline that studies geographic information systems and is a large domain within the broader academic discipline of geoinformatics.
QGIS functions as geographic information system (GIS) software, allowing users to analyze and edit spatial information, in addition to composing and exporting graphical maps. QGIS supports both raster and vector layers; vector data is stored as either point, line, or polygon features. Multiple formats of raster images are supported, and the software can georeference images. To summarize it allows the users to Create, edit, visualise, analyse and publish geospatial information on Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD.
This program, in its first phase, introduces the QGIS interface for general usage. In the second phase, we introduce PyQGIS - the python libraries of QGIS that allows the integration of GIS functionalities in your python code or your python application, so that you may even create your own Python Plugin around a particular GIS functionality.
