"Great presentation and summarization of predictive analytics.  I sat through two days of the Predictive Analytics World conference and got less from that than I received if the first two hours of this course.  Thanks!

"Statisticians and Analysts alike can benefit from this Data Mining course. It is interesting to view the business objective from the other side of the coin. Exploratory Data Analysis in Data Mining is fun because the causality constraint of classical Statistics is relaxed. Take this course and open up to another way of dealing with large data sets."

"This class, by far,  is the most interesting, motivating and applicable class I have taken in a very long time.  Tony provides a refreshingly different perspective on predictive modeling and approach methodology.  Not only would  I absolutely recommend this course to any colleague or anyone interested in the practical, yet powerful insights into predictive modeling, but I may look into additional learning and or professional services opportunities.  I can't wait to get back to work and jump right into applying the concepts and learnings."

DATA MINING: LEVEL II

 
"
When the only complaint is that the course could be longer, I think you've got an excellent class!  I very much enjoyed the instructor's use of a real data set to demonstrate principles taught throughout the entire class. The instructor went out of his way both before and during the class to help me to translate the class material to my own work."

Senior Engineer, Biological Technologies Analysis Solutions
