What We Do?
Ultimately, we support human - machine teaming in the modern workplace for the benefit of all. We do this through:
Bringing together academia, industry and government across the disciplines of modern Data Analytics to ensure everyone benefits from machine-driven insights.
Providing technical training for our members wherever they are in their careers. We have 1400+ hours of training ranging from building a dashboard with spreadsheets to using software tools and business intelligence systems and open-source coding environments like R and Python.
Leading the way in Ethical Analytics design and interpretation. We train members to make the right decisions around possible pitfalls in data collection and representation, in selecting the best solution to problems and in interpreting the output. Our training in accountability and transparency will help analysts work with integrity and responsibility.
Ensuring that members are skilled in communication. We believe in the importance of ensuring members are able to effectively communicate insights and risks to senior management and we have a suite of training to support them.
