Butler University Launches Data Analytics Boot Camp in Partnership with Trilogy Education

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Butler University Executive Education announced the launch of a data analytics boot camp, in partnership with leading workforce accelerator Trilogy Education. Geared toward adult learners and working professionals, the Butler Executive Education Data Analytics Boot Camp teaches the analytical, technical, and teamwork skills necessary to become a proficient data professional.

The 24-week, part-time program begins November 19, 2019 and includes two, three-hour evening classes during the week (6:30 to 9:30 PM) and a four-hour class on Saturdays (10:00 AM to 2:00 PM). Enrollment is now open at bootcamp.butler.edu.

"Butler University Executive Education has partnered with Trilogy Education to help meet the ever-growing demand for data professionals in Indianapolis," said William Gulley, Executive Director of Butler Executive Education. "Collectively, Butler University and Trilogy will aid students with rigorous, hands-on coursework, and an excellent support structure that will feed the city's increasingly data-driven economy."

The ability to create actionable insights from complex data sets has become a universal need across businesses in every industry. According to data from Burning Glass, Indianapolis employers struggled to fill more than 23,000 open roles in the last year alone requiring some level of data proficiency. Nationally, roles like data scientist, business analyst, and research analyst rank among the fastest-growing professions.

"The number of job openings in Indianapolis requiring data analytics skills was 53 percent higher in 2018 than the year before," said Dan Sommer, CEO and Founder of Trilogy Education. "Butler University recognizes that this growth in demand is creating a gap between the skills companies need and the ability of Indianapolis' workforce to supply those skills at scale. We're excited to partner with Butler to help increase the city's pipeline of data-savvy talent."

Pairing Butler's strengths with Trilogy's market-driven data analytics curriculum offers students of the new program both the competence and confidence to succeed as data professionals. The program's curriculum covers everything from data programming to data storytelling and helps students build proficiency in technologies like Excel, Tableau, Python, Pandas, SQL, MongoDB, JavaScript, basic machine learning, and more.

In addition to classroom instruction, students will spend a minimum of 20 hours a week on outside projects, homework, and experiential learning activities, ranging from visualizing bike sharing data in Indianapolis to mapping worldwide earthquakes in real-time. They'll build a professional project portfolio to showcase their abilities and hone their competitive edge in the employment market. Students will also receive a range of career-planning services, portfolio reviews, recruiting assistance, and extensive staff support.

Boot Camp students will gain the knowledge and skills to conduct robust analytics on real-world problems and receive a Certificate in Data Analytics from Butler Executive Education.
