Analytics and AI for Business

Once you complete your certificate, you will be awarded a digital badge, which you can display on your online portfolio to demonstrate your new credential and new level of knowledge. 

Courses are offered in convenient, seven-week sessions in hybrid delivery format, blending in-person and online class sessions.
