About the Course

Data is now a ubiquitous asset in any and all organisations. But the reality is that the vast majority of data generated is of an unstructured format. This poses interesting challenges to those who need to make sense of it. One of the most prevalent types of unstructured data in the world is in the form of written text. Think about it: All the documents that get created in your organisation, all the emails that get sent around and all the conversation that happens in social media and other online settings.

In this two-day introductory yet highly-practical workshop, participants will learn the latest theories, tools, techniques and strategies for applying advanced analytics in situations where data exists in the form of texts and written documents. Aimed at beginners, this workshop will help professionals with fundamental ideas and practical knowledge to positively impact their organisations.

  • For those who want to understand how analytics is being applied in the context of text and documents but have not had any (or major) exposure to the field.
  • For those who want to pursue a change in careers to work more closely with data, analytics and data science with emphasis on text from surveys, documents and social media but have not had a chance to figure out how.
  • For those who work for organisations that must deal with a lot of text in the form of documents, surveys, texts and social media and want to apply analytics to it but have not had a chance to figure out how to start.
