Internet of Things and Data Analytics for Industry
Overview
The objectives of this course are to enable participants to gain a working knowledge about the Internet of Things (IoT) and its potential to transform industrial sectors due to its ability to provide real-time visibility into operational processes. It also covers data analytics which enables trends to be identified and anomalies to be detected so that organisations can respond appropriately. A hands-on session provides participants with the opportunity to put into practice the concepts learnt.
This short course will be conducted fully online using Zoom, a professional video conferencing application that provides good video and audio quality, and computer screen sharing features.
The experience for participants will be similar to attending the course in-person, without the hassle of travelling to the course venue. The sessions will be interactive.Participants can raise their hands and ask questions and group discussions can be carried out.
Requirements:
Decent laptop or computer with webcam, headset (microphone and headphones) and a good Internet connection.
Note:
A separate registration is required for each participant.
