Frequently Asked Questions
Advanced data analytics, often referred to as data science, combines mathematics, statistics, programming, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning to reveal meaningful insights hidden within data. These insights help organizations make informed decisions, optimize operations, and shape strategic goals.
Advanced data professionals, such as data analysts and data scientists, collect, analyze, and interpret large volumes of data to help organizations solve complex problems and make data-driven decisions. Their work often involves managing big data sets, building predictive models, applying machine learning techniques, and designing experiments to uncover trends and opportunities.
Data analysts focus on solving business problems by collecting, organizing, and interpreting data using tools such as SQL, R, or other programming languages, along with data visualization and statistical analysis. Data scientists take a more advanced approach, using techniques like machine learning and predictive modeling to forecast outcomes. They often define the key questions to explore and determine the best ways to use data to answer them.
