Introduction to Data Analysis: Hands-on Training

Odin Outsourcing

Overview:
“Introduction to Programming: Hands-on Training” course covers all the basics of programming in Python,
as well as general computer programming concepts and techniques.

Data Analysis is a process of collecting, transforming, cleaning, and modeling data with the goal of
discovering the required information. The results so obtained are communicated, suggesting conclusions,
and supporting decision-making. Data visualization is at times used to portray the data for the ease of
discovering the useful patterns in the data. The terms Data Modeling and Data Analysis mean the same.

Course Objective:
After completing this course, students would be able to accomplish coding tasks related to the basics of
programming in the Python language and to understand the fundamental notions and techniques, data
analysis, data visualization, and also be able to understand computer use efficiently and prudently.

Prerequisite and Target Audience:

Any beginner who wants to build a career as a programmer, a data analyzer can participate in this course.
