“The learning paths on Dataquest are incredible. They give you a direction through the learning process – you don’t have to guess what to learn next.”

Otávio Silveira

Data Analyst @ Hortifruti

Path overview

On this path, you’ll learn all about deep learning, including how to build, train, and evaluate models with the TensorFlow framework. 

You’ll then learn how to conduct forecasts on real data by applying sequential neural network models to time series forecasting. 

Next, you’ll learn how to use TensorFlow tools and libraries to work on a range of NLP use cases, including text visualization, sentiment analysis models, and more.

Finally, you’ll learn how to apply convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to computer vision tasks so that you can teach computers to see and interpret digital images.

Best of all, you’ll learn by doing — you’ll practice and get feedback directly in the browser. You’ll apply your skills to several guided projects with realistic business scenarios to build your portfolio and prepare for your next interview.

Business Analyst at Aditi Consulting

“Dataquest starts at the most basic level, so a beginner can understand the concepts. I tried learning to code before, using Codecademy and Coursera. I struggled because I had no background in coding, and I was spending a lot of time Googling. Dataquest helped me actually learn.”

Jessica Ko

Machine Learning Engineer at Twitter

“I liked the interactive environment on Dataquest. The material was clear and well organized. I spent more time practicing then watching videos and it made me want to keep learning.”

“I really love learning on Dataquest. I looked into a couple of other options and I found that they were much too handhold-y and fill in the blank relative to Dataquest’s method. The projects on Dataquest were key to getting my job. I doubled my income!”
