What have we learned?
24�
Insights Learned from DSP Team Training�1. Potential Data Science Members are everywhere.
But this does not matter without the ability to organize them and to train them to reach their potential.
2. Access to individual specialized classes are available. But there are a lack of classes that combine all this knowledge and integrate it to become a complete End-to-End course.
3. There is a great amount of Data out there, especially within the Government. But the Government lacks a powerful strategic plan of how to open data for the betterment of society.
4. Insights are around us. But these insights need to be turned into actions.
25�
More or Less�
1. More Quality in Life, Less Cynic 2. More Real Strategy, Less Bluffing 3. More Data, Less Guessing 4. More Correlation, Less Summation 5. More Cross-over, Less Limitation
Do them right,
let Data Science help to make many things good
