<p>Probability theory is important in data science as we often want to use data to make some predictions about the future. It is also fundamental for many machine learning algorithms.</p>



<p>Learn about probability in this four-part course where we will cover:</p>



<ul><li>Conditional probability</li><li>Bayes theorem</li><li>Bayesian inference</li><li>Bayesian decision making</li><li>Bayesian regression</li></ul>



<p>The course consists of four lessons and four labs, for a total of 16 hours. There are also four assignments in the course, which will form part of your professional portfolio.</p>



<p>We take a learn-by-doing approach and will focus on writing code in python rather than study equations. Because this is more efficient and more relevant for your day to day work.</p>



<p>You will receive a certificate upon successful completion of the course and assignments.</p>



<h5 class="_1mf _1mj wp-block-heading">Who should take this course?</h5>



<ul><li>Aspiring Data Scientists or Machine Learning engineers without a base in probability theory</li><li>Developers who want a career in Data Science</li><li>Anyone who wants a thorough understanding of probability and Bayes theorem.</li></ul>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">What do you get?</h5>



<ul><li><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Personalized training</span></li><li>Learn common libraries for working with data</li><li>Non-alcoholic drinks and light snacks will be served</li><li>Professional portfolio</li><li>Certificate of Completion</li></ul>



<h5 class="_1mf _1mj wp-block-heading">Prerequisites</h5>



<ul><li>Working knowledge of Python with numpy and pandas libraries.</li><li>You need to bring your own laptop (Windows/Linux/macOS), you will <em>not</em> need to install anything on your laptop.</li><li>You need access to a free Google account (such as Gmail)</li></ul>

<h5 class="wp-block-heading">Gathering, cleaning and analyzing messy data</h5>



<p>If you already started your data science journey on your own you might have worked with some tutorials and courses that provide you with a clean and neat data set to train your machine learning models on. This is great for learning the principles of the algorithms, but the real world is not neat and clean. Real-world data is messy, incomplete, and probably not what you were looking for in the first place.</p>



<p>In this workshop we will look at techniques for gathering data, we will build a program for scraping web content and we will clean and preprocess that data so we can analyze it.</p>



<p>This course is great if you are trying to build a portfolio of machine learning and data science projects. Employers like to see that you are able to work with real data. And if you can gather your own data you are not limited by the existence of nicely prepared datasets to conduct your machine learning experiments.</p>



<p>The workshop is 3 hours. It requires some basic programming experience, preferably in Python. Participants must bring their own laptop.</p>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">What do you get?</h5>



<ul><li>Hands-on training in web scraping</li><li>Learn about working with messy and incomplete data</li><li>Gain valuable skills for portfolio building</li><li>Certificate of completion</li><li>Food will be served</li></ul>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">Prerequisites</h5>



<ul><li>Working knowledge in programming (preferrably Python)</li><li>Participants must bring their own laptop (Win/Linux/Mac)</li></ul>
