Course description
During this program, ideal for non-specialists, you will learn about both the capabilities and limitations of big data, AI and data analytics. You will be taught a framework from which to understand big data and analytics and leave with a toolbox that you can use to lead effective business analytics initiatives and make fact-driven decisions based on analysis. Big Data and Managerial Decision-making was designed to give decision makers the framework to understand and implement data projects that generate actionable insights to help them make fact-driven decisions. The fact is that the hardest parts of implementing a big data analytics strategy or project do not involve data science or technology. Rather, the real challenges are ones of leadership and management.
