I spent several months trying to teach myself the fundamentals needed to begin with data science. I took classes on several of the big MOOC websites, but I struggled when trying to apply the concepts to real-world situations. I read about how I needed a strong math and statistics foundation to start in machine learning, and the path seemed daunting. The Data Science Dojo team has created a program that gives you a foundation to begin with data science. They pushed us to ask questions and think like a data scientist, and gave many real world examples to solidify the concepts.

Top organizations are looking for individuals with proven industry experience that many fresh graduates or job seekers with experience gaps don’t have. Data Science Dojo has a unique solution to this problem: Practicum. Practicum approaches changing or starting your career in data science differently. Instead of focusing on classroom learning, Practicum starts with real experience in the form of a data science internship where interns get to work with our data science and engineering teams. Couple internship experience with rigorous classroom learning and career support, and Practicum interns will start their careers in data science.

We aim to solve this problem by paying students while they complete their Practicum internship. Students can opt-in to receive a monthly stipend to help relieve the financial hardship of full-time learning.
Not only will we pay you, but students who sign up with an income share agreement (ISA) don’t make payments towards the program until they get a job.
