From Our Students

"I enjoyed the Utility Analytics 101 class. The instructor provided helpful and insightful information. The class was beneficial and is a good overview class for people that don’t really know or understand how visualizations tell the story, how to work with the data to tell the right story, or what tools to use to analyze the data to determine if the data is good or bad."

“I found the UAI 101 course to be informative and thought provoking. As a beginning course it really stretched my mind to the possibilities of using data. There are so many ways to collect, interpret, visualize and present data that it is definitely a science but also an art. Looking forward to the next course.”

“UAI Utility Analytics 101 was a perfect training course for utilities that are making the change to a more datacentric environment. With real utility data, it was great to learn the process of taking on a new task and how to execute that task. The training in both SQL and python was helpful because those are two software’s I work with every day. It didn’t matter if you had previous data science experience or none at all, the instructor that taught this course did an excellent job explaining and interpreting challenging concepts to all knowledge levels.”

“I think the UAI Utility Analytics 101 training instructor did a great job leading the group through a number of complex topics. The course would be a great introduction for someone with very limited knowledge and/or exposure to the field of analytics. You can expect to come away with a better understanding of the many different terms, tools, and techniques that the analytic professionals in our utilities use on a daily basis. In addition, you’ll also get to network and learn alongside peers from many different parts of the utility industry.”

“Utility Analytics 101 is a great introduction to how analytics can be leveraged by a utility to provide value. It covers the core concepts of Python, SQL, and visualization, and highlights the use of storytelling in the data world. I would recommend it to professionals who intend to develop a culture of data-driven decision-making in their teams or organizations.”

“I enjoyed the UAI Utility Analytics 101 class. It explains fundamentally the approach of data analytics, and the difference between tools used for data analytics. I recommend this course as the basis for an entry step for newcomers in utility analytics.”

“Utility Analytics 101 is a very well-structured class. It not only provides a big picture of analytics from different levels (descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive), but also showcases how various analytics methods can be applied in the utility industry. During the SQL and Python sessions, the instructor was incredibly patient and interactive with students. Even if you have zero experience with SQL and Python, you can easily understand the content without a struggle. Thanks Utility Analytics Institute for putting together such a helpful training!”

“The Utility Analytics Training is a great course for those not only new to the utility industry but also to seasoned utility professionals who are looking to improve technical and data analysis skills. The curriculum is designed to keep the learners engaged and the instructor always encouraged students to ask questions or give feedback. The utility use cases and hands on lab was extremely helpful to immediately apply what we learned. I have suggested to my department manager that this become part of our onboarding process for new team members to the Data Strategy division.”

“I already had a python background, but this re-introduction gave me a new lens to view data projects with. The data communication and storytelling piece of this course was incredibly valuable for someone new to the analytics world like me. The professor had a different perspective being from the academic world that I thought was useful to hear and challenged me to think about my problems/projects in a different light.”
