Koopmans, managing partner and Chief Data Scientist at DIKW says 'as I stated at the start: a unique certified program for the latest generation of 'intelligence professionals'. Academic, but not too theoretical'.
Applicable topics
The Data Science programme was organised around a number of topics,' continues Koopmans. Each topic has an example exercise with a script. The participants immediately started working on that. And now - after completing the program - they immediately have a 'quick-start script', which they use in their field of work. This straight applicability in practice is really the great strength of our CPP Data Science course for participants.
Career perspective in the near future
Data-driven work is becoming increasingly important. Koopmans: 'With their education, the graduates really have something to offer! With the degree in CPP Data Science, the graduates will soon really have an improved career perspective with an increasingly wide range of roles in data-driven organisations.
Experiences of the first class
Cassandra de Jong, working at Europe Container Terminals in Rotterdam: 'A tough and educational training'. Lieke van Nuland, working at Rabobank, complements: 'With enthusiastic teachers who give you a solid basis as a data scientist'. Hugo Koopmans: 'Our students have rated the programme with an 8.4. I am proud of that'.
More about the program
If you want to grow further as a data professional within your organization, then the Certified Professional Program Data Science of the Open Universiteit might be an interesting option for you.
The program starts in January 2019 and is part of the Certified Professional Programs program line. Practice-oriented programmes at an academic level, which students can combine with their work in their own professional practice. In our CPP Data Science, as a data-driven professional, you learn not only to understand data, but also to work with it in order to create new services for organisations.
New in our offer is that the course is given in Dutch or English.
