For those who have a basic understanding of programming, to ensure that their data science projects always follow best practices in all, and to help emphasise the importance of best practices when working in a team – as we know, Data Science is a team sport. While all the Mango training courses help to instil these best practices; this course focuses on what the options are and why we need to use them in a language agnostic setting. This course outlines the key best practices associated with the 6 core traits of a data science team and project: communication, data wrangling, modelling, programming, technology, and visualisation.

When it comes to forecasting time dependent data we need to consider a range of techniques beyond those common in machine learning to get the most from our data. In this one-day course attendees will be introduced to some of the common time series analysis techniques as well as how to implement and understand them in Python. In addition we will cover some of the common manipulation tasks related to dates and times and how we can create visualisations to aid our analysis.
