Curriculum

Data Science with Python Basics
16 Hours
Foundational Module
Python for Data Science
A beginner-friendly module that teaches you how to code in Python and work efficiently with big datasets using Google’s Colab. Understand how businesses store, extract and manipulate data through industry use cases and case studies.
Analyzing Data with Python
Learn how to analyze and harvest clean data sets and create data frames to run basic analysis as well as to perform data reporting using powerful data science libraries like Pandas and Numpy to gain actionable insights for your business.
Web Scraping with APIs
Learn how to navigate, collect and organize data from various sources like CSV files, APIs. You’ll leverage on existing datasets, scrape web data and learn to access useful information in these data structures.
Intro to Data Visualization
Understand how data scientists present and visualize large datasets across industries. Leverage on Matplotlib to create descriptive and interpretable visuals, enabling you to easily extract relevant information, better understand the data, and make effective decisions.
Pause and resume anytime
All lessons can be taken individually. Fit them into your summer vacations or any schedule you like.

Proud Preface Grads
Feedbacks from happy learners inspire us everyday
As a startup founder without technical background, Preface's programming course gave me solid understanding & practical skills about coding, and enabled me to build an effective communication channel with my engineers. Preface is definitely the go-to upskill platform for anyone in the field.
Vincent So
Founder at Inspect Element
I used to think coding is the new & hip trend that only fits young people, but Preface has proven me wrong. The systematic & practical learning system helped me to get my hands on programming seamlessly, and to actually apply to work. How much I love Preface? I applied to both courses.

The Preface Difference
Come for learning a skill.
Stay for the continual growth.
