Learn Data Science for Excellence and not just for the Exams

Apart from academics, soft skills are also important for analytics professionals. Good communication, team work, leadership and creativity, these skills can’t be learned from books or videos, you have to learn it by actually working on it. These days, in every big city, different technological meetups/conferences/datathons are regularly arranged by many experts and companies to share knowledge and learn from each other. Attending such events helps you to improve your skills to convey your ideas, to learn from other’s ideas and mistakes, to create your professional network and ultimately to be better than what you were yesterday.

So, learn thoroughly, share globally and grow rapidly.
All the very best.
