It is the basis of modern computer analytics and intelligence. It includes a number of IT areas, such as statistical methods for identifying patterns in data and making inferences; database technologies for managing the data sets to be mined; a range of intelligent technologies that derive automatically patterns from data; and visualisation and other multimedia techniques that support human pattern discovery capabilities.

Applied Data Analytics develops the autonomy of learners to plan and implement a data mining project using the most common approach to data mining called cross-industry standard process for data mining, known as CRISP-DM. From pre-processing to deployment of results: representing patterns as rules, functions, cases; model deployment; industry applications, this practical problem based microcredential enables demonstration of analytics expertise and professional communication of analytics.
