Data mining has been considered the province of the data scientist and data analyst. But the data scientists and data analysts only solve the business problems that are given to them provided those business problems can be solved with data.

Someone has to analyze the processes and conditions of the business to determine what the problems are and then determine whether data can solve those problems and answer the questions related to those problems. And that someone is the business analyst.

On this webinar Steven P. Blais provides guidelines to determining business problems that can be solved with data and provides the details of what data mining is all about.

Topics: 

• Business analyst or data analyst or data scientist?
• Determine the right data
• The process of getting value from data
• Produce actionable insights
• Provide the questions and interpret the answers
