This course will guide you to lead or participate in the end-to-end implementation of machine learning (aka predictive analytics). Unlike most machine learning courses, it prepares you to avoid the most common management mistake that derails machine learning projects: jumping straight into the number crunching before establishing and planning for a path to operational deployment.<br><br>Whether you'll participate on the business or tech side of a machine learning project, this course delivers essential, pertinent know-how. You'll learn the business-level fundamentals needed to ensure the core technology works within – and successfully produces value for – business operations. If you're more a quant than a business leader, you’ll find this is a rare opportunity to ramp up on the business side, since technical ML trainings don’t usually go there. But know this: The soft skills are often the hard ones.
