Cracking the code: Python for data analytics

This event has now ended. You can rewatch the webinar below, or visit our YouTube channel for all other webinars.

Join our digital manufacturing experts as they demonstrate the importance of machine learning in data analysis and how it can help you make more informed and effective decisions for your business.

Many people still think of machine learning as a futuristic idea that isn’t applicable in the real world.  During this webinar this myth will be dispelled as you are given a guided tour of Python, a pioneering software in the field of programming languages for machine learning technologies.  You will be shown key tools that you can employ to help you and your fellow decision makers.

This session is aimed at individuals and teams carrying out data analysis of any sort and will be presented in a way that is accessible by all, regardless of technical background.
