i find that for such kind of courses - TFIP IBF Data Analytics are just "money-sucking" or money-spinning for the schools as well as for the lecturers to earn rice-bowl money. For any mid-career switch, why would any employers want to consider such kind candidates (TFIP IBF Data Analytics) over some other full-time SUTD/SUSS/NUS/SMU or even full-time Diploma graduates from SP/RP who have done internship.

To learn all the knowledge of data analytics, there's so many Machine Learning/Deep Learning textbooks to read & most important to use these knowledge to apply & solve problems that's more valuable than just attending courses. If one is really very interested in Data Analytics, should consider either Masters Degree from NUS/NTU/DigiPen instead of such short courses of 18 months with TFIP IBF Data Analytics.

you do know that for this, candidates are not paying the school nor the company right? instead, the candidates are being paid to learn

separately, does anyone with assessment has different timing from 23 may 11am?

the data analytics track is not data science/AI/ML.

they said so in the video (on youtube). you will be doing mostly grunt data work and data visualization.

Has anyone received the email from LumiNUS to activate the account? I have just received the email from IBF on the online assessment.

I also only received email from IBF. Anyway you got apply for the rest? they are 24 months instead of 18 months.
No, I applied for DA track. My qualification doesn't fit the requirements of the rest. You applied other tracks?

Went ahead to setup the NUS account even before receiving the email. Moments later, received the NUS account and managed to log-in

i only applied for cloud computing track cause i have better understanding on that aspect as compared to others. plus the competition for data analytic too fierce to me. ibf only offered up till 140 positions for all 5 tracks.

From what i heard, there are about 1700 applicants last year for 80 spots.

dam.. thats crazy if thats true... sad
