What changes have we made in the


learning path?
This year, the learning path has been designed on a completely
new LMS portal. This portal allows you to track your progress
as your data science journey continues. We have designed
questions and exercises after each module to test your
understanding. You will also be able to access the related
hackathons / practice problems from the same place.

We even have a discussion portal within the learning path


where you can share your doubts and queries and even post
the awesome projects you’re working on!

3/3/2018 The Ultimate Learning Path to Becoming a Data Scientist in 2018

A few things to keep in mind:


A few pointers to make this learning path (and 2018) super
successful for you:

Follow and experience it on our new LMS


(https://trainings.analyticsvidhya.com/courses/course-
v1:AnalyticsVidhya+Python-Final-Jan-Feb+Python-Session-
1/about). It will need a one time sign up, but once you are
done (or you sign in with your existing Analytics Vidhya id),
you can track your progress and assignment at a single place.
It sounds like I am selling you our new LMS – but it is free and
makes life super easy.
Learn, Engage, Compete and Get Hired! That is exactly what
you need to do. Make sure you follow the activities
mentioned. Data Science is all about learning through
(https://datahack.analyticsvidhya.com/contest/mck
practice and showing curiosity through data. Follow these and
analytics-online-hackathon-recommendation/?
you will be hired before the year nishes.
utm_source=AVblog_sidebottom)
Remember – depth matters more than the breadth – So,
whatever you do, do it well. While we have laid out things on
a time line – you should be doing this on your own pace and
time. If you need more time to grasp statistics – you take that.
You are not missing a bus by grasping the fundamentals

Let’s get started


2018 – here we come! I hope this year our path gets
1,000,000+ visits! We have made sure that we put all our
wisdom and experience in creating it. Having said that – Is there
anything you feel we should have included?

Or if you had taken our learning path last year – what was your
experience and how do you like the current changes? Let us
know your thoughts in the comments section below!

George – feel free to pace things at your own


pace and comfort. As I said, quality of
understanding and depth in subject trumps
quantity. But, if you have to become a data
scientist in a year – I am afraid that is the pace
to keep.

(1)What is the di erence in all kinds of analysts like


investment,business,testing , nancial ,operation,quality
,data,etc and do they all come under the same roof!!?.
(2)And can any of the analyst can become a data scientist.
(3) Also if everyone tries to become a data scientiist there
would be a sudden hype in this eld.!Any views to stay
motivated.Initially I liked this eld coz I found it unique
and gave satisfaction atleast in the crowd I am familiar
with. Any opinion to keep me motivated.
(4)Also machine learning can and AI some day seem to
take over all the data science jobs with a better
e ciency.Your views on this!
