Necessity and success of use of analytics have led to the creation of analytics cell in most organizations dealing with data driven decision making. The subject being relatively new, there is acute shortage of formally qualified professionals for this field. Consequently, many of these working professionals have acquired their skills by on the job trial and error experience using software tools available in the organizations without any formal exposure to this complex subject. This restricts their understanding of the subject, often preventing them from utilizing the full potential of modern statistical and machine learning tools and techniques. A formal exposure to the theories and principles of the underlying methods they use would have significantly enhanced the quality of solutions they would otherwise deliver. Familiarity with emerging methods, tools and techniques beyond the limited options they are exploring would also add to their productivity. It will be an opportunity for such a group of professionals to familiarize themselves with state of the art theories and principles of analytics in action.
