I manage huge datasets (on economics and climate) and I wanted to learn more about it and stay updated on the novelties of my field. The Data Science Bootcamp at IE Executive Education was the perfect choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m completing the Bootcamp completely online, though I hope to be able to come to Madrid a couple of times. It\u2019s hard for me to manage my studies, the challenges of my work (10-11 hours a day), my business trips, and my family, but I always find some strength and time in the evening to dedicate to the Bootcamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve been learning coding, statistics, and agile methodology, among other topics. And as far as I\u2019m concerned, the most interesting things\u2014including machine learning\u2014are yet to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9094\" width=\"483\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English-260x136.jpg 260w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English-50x26.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English-143x75.jpg 143w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/lifelong-learning\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PROGRAMA_RRSS_OPCION_A_SIN_LOGOS-1200x628-English.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 483px) 100vw, 483px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am Italian, and I work in Luxembourg for the EU institutions.
