Big Data Workshops - Cycle 1 (Beginner)
The world of technology is evolving very rapidly. Today, the future of companies depends on the processing of "Big Data", the ever-increasing amounts of data, which have become the new raw material to be valued in almost all sectors.
It is in response to these changes that the project "Brussels: The Beating Heart of Big Data" was born.
"Brussels: The Beating Heart of Big Data" is part of the 8th Measure of the Next Tech Plan. We offer 3 training cycles of 10 courses, of beginner and advanced levels. These 3 cycles will be followed by a Hackathon weekend.
Who are these courses for?
Professionals, entrepreneurs, freelancers, job seekers, as well as to anyone who wishes to familiarize themselves with the terminology and methodology of Big Data.
Cycle 1: 10 courses from 18h30 - 21h30
This cycle is intended for those who wish to familiarize themselves with the terminology of Big Data and its key concepts: use, applications, operating system.
No technical skills are required.
Indeed, mastering Big Data can have a decisive influence on job search or professional career.
