July Chapter Meeting - Business Analyst or Data Analyst: Who is digging for data?

Tuesday, July 20, 2021 -
11:30am to 12:30pm

Overview and Learning Objectives

By 2023, the big data analytics market is expected to reach $103 billion. The big data market is projected to grow by 20%.  It was predicted that in one second, each person would have generated 1.7 megabytes of data by 2020.  Data is predicted to continue to grow exponentially now and into the future. We have the data, but we have limited talent to analyze this data. 
 
In this session, learn more about this talent crunch and about the similarities and differences between business analysis and data analysis.  What data skills should BAs acquire or possess?  What BA type skills should data analysts develop?  How do these roles intersect?

Agenda

11:30 - 12:30  Presentation​
