The Daily
Data Scientist
Workshop
Β
Data science is 80% data analytics; we build machine learning models. Mastering data analytics is critical to provide proper context when answering your stakeholders' questions.
We've meticulously crafted a dataset that mirrors real-world scenarios, ensuring you will gain hands-on experience in solving complex challenges faced by marketing, product management, and leadership teams.
This is not your typical workshop. Here, you will test yourself by finding strategies to solve each question and then ask for help if needed; you will learn better and build a business mindset faster.
The workshop has seven modules; we recommend doing one module per week (10h-15 hours per week).
Β
How Does it Work?
- We willΒ put you in context by describingΒ a fictional company for which you are the data scientist.
- We will provide you access to a specifically crafted dataset (CSV file) and a list of fundamental questions most marketing, product, and leadership teams ask.
- Your task will be to answer these questions as if they were real-life requests from stakeholders.Β
- Based on each question, you will decide how to extract and present the information to guide your stakeholders toward better decision-making.
- As you learn more about the data, you will learn to combine the different pieces of the puzzle to build more complex insights.
- If you feel stuck, you can ask our community or watch the solution associated with each question to give you new ideas.
Some solutions might require you to think creatively or to seek more information elsewhere: that's what it means to be a real-life data scientist.
N.B.: Each solution uses Python as the programming language; you need to have basic knowledge of Python before starting the workshop.
The Workshop Includes:
Module 0 - Introduction
Module 1
Module 2
Module 3

One Step Closer To Your Next Job!
We encourage you to create documentation, such as presentations, to familiarize yourself with the entire workflow process.
By the end of the workshop, you will have a deep knowledge that experienced data scientists strive for when starting a new position.
You will understand of what it means toΒ collaborate with the teamsΒ fo the same goal. Data science can be utilized differently from one company to another, but the main objective is the same: how can your stakeholders benefit from your contribution? When you understand the purpose and how it is tackled in real life, you will then be able to ask the right questions. Thatβs how you become a daily data scientist.
This workshop focuses on the implementation of solutions for your stakeholders. We assume that you have basic data science knowledge (probability theory, statistics, machine learning, and data visualization skills). Theoretical approaches will sometimes be discussed to highlight the reason behind practical solutions. In this workshop, you will learn that not all problems come with a clear solution, and you need to tackle them.
