Data Analytics Bootcamp
Warm greetings from the Public-Private Desk (PPD) in the Office of the Prime Minister.
The Government of Belize, through the Economic Development Council, and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), through the Compete Caribbean Partnership Facility (CCPF) – which is funded by the United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, the Caribbean Development Bank, and the Government of Canada in partnership with Le Wagon, a world-leading coding and data school, are proud to announce the launch of a bootcamp style training program on data analytics specifically tailored for Belizean youths.
From Excel to Python, from Data Analysis to Big Data, participants will finish the course knowing how to explore, clean, and transform data into actionable insights, working in teams with the best-in-class tool belt. This part-time Data Analytics course starting July 26 will give participants the skills they need to boost their career in the tech world, in only 14 weeks – studying two nights a week and on Saturdays. Applications are now being accepted from interested organizations seeking to build their institutional capacity.
