Organisation profile

IMR is Ireland's leading independent research and technology organisation, RTO. All Irish Manufacturing Research’s projects focus on translational innovation projects, in collaboration with industry, to demystify, de-risk and deliver emerging concepts, processes and technologies.

Training aim

With increasing amounts of data and IIoT technology becoming more and more available, the potential positive impact to companies is more achievable than ever. However, understanding how to identify potential opportunities from this data is difficult if people have not been exposed to data analytics before. The aim of this course is to introduce the basics of information use, data acquisition, data analysis, available tools and common pitfalls.

Learning objectives

The course provides a broad view of the extract-load-transform/extract-transform-load processes, explains common approaches for data projects/applications, covers sample sets of different software/hardware tools that can be used in different stages of the process as well as what is required to execute a data project successfully. It also touches on organizational readiness and the skills required for projects that aim to leverage data as a resource.This course could be a good starting point for people that are considering IIoT/data analyst engineer careers as well as people that think their company could apply data science to improve their business but don’t know where to start and what is involved.
