It prepares you to apply leading-edge analytical methods and technology enablers across the supply chain. You\u2019ll learn the dynamics of supply chains, the most relevant planning challenges, and the roles of different types of analytics. Next, you\u2019ll learn about data cleansing, exploratory data analysis, and visualization. You\u2019ll use Python and PowerBI to analyze the causes of underperformance and to build dashboards to visualize supply chain data. You will leave knowing how to gather, analyze, and prepare your data through descriptive analytics before you dig into deeper applications.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe online version of the course is comprised of (4) half-day instructor-led LIVE group webinars and pre-work (e.g. installing and testing software on your computer, testing connectivity with LMS and meeting software, etc.) to be completed before the first day of the course.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Ch3\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EWho Should Attend\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EExperienced business professionals who perform or want to perform analytics to improve their supply chain management processes.
