Zone Learning Analytics School (ZLAS) will bring in the top analytics-software providers and industry practitioners to give complimentary data analytics training to undergraduate students, professionals, and increase collaboration between engineers, mathematicians, and businesspeople.
LEARN MOREZLAS aims to be the national hub for analytics-training to bridge the gap between the data analytics skills demanded by companies and those that are offered by undergraduate students and professionals.
Currently, analytics training is only offered at the graduate level through Masters or post-graduate diploma programs. Through analytics training, we will give Ryerson’s undergraduates a competitive advantage over others in the workforce.
