IIBA NYC Chapter is proud onc again to present BA Tools and Techniques - a series of hands on workships for Business Analysts. 


BAs engage in exploratory data analysis, which can include profiling data, visualizing results, and creating observations to direct next steps in the analysis. Python can be used to manipulate the data (using panda libraries), streamline workflows, and create visualizations (using Matplotlib).

These two sessions will introduce participants to Python to make it approachable, and to understand how and when Python ia used, and as a basis for further learning, if ddsired.

Learning Objectives:

In this training we will be covering various different types of variables, different data types (lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries), user defined functions, and loops in Python. We will also learn how to manipulate the data using Pandas library in Python.
