GICT Big Data Science Certification

A big data science analyst’s main objective is to organize and analyze large amounts of data, often using software specifically designed for the task. The result of the analysis needs to be simple enough for all invested stakeholders to understand — especially those working outside of IT.

A data scientist’s approach to data analysis depends on their industry and the specific needs of the business or department they are working for. Before a data scientist can find meaning in structured or unstructured data, business leaders and department managers must communicate what they’re looking for. As such, a data scientist must have enough business domain expertise to translate company goals into data-based deliverables such as prediction engines, pattern detection analysis or even optimization algorithms.
