Lean in Finance in partnership with SSA & Company’s, offer Advanced Analytics Course, highly refined and innovative program that steps beyond traditional Master Black Belt training. Our participants are taught Lean and Six Sigma tools and techniques while executing a real process improvement project at their home companies.


Big data’s promise is finally here

The workshop is designed to give you a good high-level understanding of the overall picture – what is Advanced Analytics, how does it relate to Big Data, what sort of things can you use it for, what are the key areas… and in addition we then take a closer look at a few interesting areas so that interested people can get some idea of how it actually works.

Here’s our agenda:

•       Introduction to Big Data and the business opportunities it brings       

•       How to think through the feasibility of an Advanced Analytics idea

•       Data Collection, Cleansing and Storage

•       Association Rule Mining – a technique for finding things that tend to go together (with an automotive example: finding engine fault codes that tend to go together as a way to improve diagnosis)

•       Predictive Analytics – again, with an automotive example

•       Advanced Visualisation techniques

•       How to launch an Advanced Analytics initiative
