Fireside Chats – Introduction to KNIME – Venkatesh Ravirala
Our inaugural class completed the first portion of their education program–excel & statistics. To celebrate, we were honored to have Dr. Venkatesh Ravirala, Senior Director Customer Science and Insights at Walgreens Boots Alliance, share his advice to the cohort and showcase KNIME, a data analytics platform. A few highlights from his conversation for how to transition to analytics:
- Learn the overall process of data analysis and how/when to use the foundational tools.
- Master the basics for pulling data, analysis, and visualizing data. Understand how to ask the right question to expand your knowledge as needed.
- Understand how the core skills you bring to the table tie together to help you be an effective data analyst.
- Understanding the process for breaking down problems into its smaller components is transferable across all industries.
