Friday Forum Webinar: Use Your Business Skills to Succeed in Data Analytics
March 18, 2016 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Steve Riihimaki, (Col ’94) discusses how a liberal arts education and business experience can lead to success in the rapidly growing field of data analytics.
Are you looking for a way to leverage your background into the burgeoning area of data science? A career in data analytics requires more than technical expertise – analysts must understand how their work affects the company’s business and be able to present findings to a non-technical group in order to succeed.
Data analytics is a rapidly growing field across many industries, including the insurance industry. Join Steve Riimahiki (Col ’94) as he discusses how liberal arts education and business experience enhances data analysts’ insight and effectiveness and outlines data analytics career paths available in the insurance industry. Steve will also present how GEICO analyzes risk, combining communication, business judgment and data analytics to make decisions that drive positive company results.
