Boston Data Science Course

If you want to become a Data Scientist, you should know this is not the same thing as becoming a Data Analyst, which is typically a more junior position. Data Scientists, generally speaking, have more technical knowledge and expertise, and data science positions are usually more senior in nature compared to data analyst positions.

BrainStation’s Data Science course can be considered an intermediate-level data science course, as it dives into prescriptive and predictive analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and programming languages. BrainStation’s Data Analytics course, on the other hand, is more beginner-friendly with a focus on descriptive analytics, industry standard tools and software.

Yes, when you complete the Data Science course, you will earn a BrainStation Data Science Certificate, which can boost your LinkedIn profile and resume, helping you stand out in the job market and when applying for data science positions.
