Overview

Graduate Certificate - Big Data Analytics

Big Data allows users to visualize past, present, and future patterns by linking and presenting information in meaningful ways. 

Data Analytics offers deeper insight into the meaning of data sets by telling the story behind the information. 

This enables stakeholders to make more informed decisions, predict trends and better understand the needs and sentiments of customers. 

This program at Georgian College provides students with a unique blend of theoretical knowledge and applied skills.

Students learn how to collect, curate, manipulate, encode, and store data sets to be analyzed and mined so that they can be reused and repurposed to solve challenges that don’t yet exist.
