A word from a channel owner
Hello everyone
I wanted to say few words about myself, this community and about values that drive us.
What is this?
Big Data Specialist is a community of more than 20k programmers/data scientists or those who want to become that. In order to help you to achieve this, we provide you free courses, books, cool programming materials and stuff, and also occasionally we answer on your programming related questions.
This is me
As some of you maybe know, I am an electrical engineer, graduated in software development department. My Bachelor's thesis was about machine learning and my career is going in that direction since then. I am working as a data scientist. This month is my 3rd anniversary since I started at this position in current company. I'm 27 years old and live in Southeast Europe.
The idea was born
The urge for sharing knowledge and experience provoke me to create Instagram page (name is same, bigdataspecialist, you can look it up). There I created interesting posts that help people understand data science and machine learning. I also shared some courses that might help people, but since ig is not very good with links, Telegram channel appeared as a logical solution.
Are all courses really free?
Absolutely, we have never shared a paid course, but since soo many of you request certification we might share those as well in future, but we will carefully choose them and mark them as paid to avoid confusion.
Future goals
Our goal is to connect with word most famous course creators and in agreement with them offer some of their courses completely free, just for joy of learning. We already shared courses from famous Universities like MIT, Harvard, Stanford...
Advertising
Ads are very rare in this channel, but occasionally they can appear. We are accepting only those ads that somebody could actually find valuable. Revenue earned through them will be used for server costs and for buying courses that will be donated to our subscribers through giveaways!
Cross promotions
Also very rare, but if they occur, that's only with programming related channels which content you could find very valuable.
Share your resources
I encourage you to help others as well, if you know any course or interesting website that you find valuable, please let me know so we can share it with others. You can send me that to @mldatascientist.
Growth Mindset
If you like our channel, please invite others to join and get free learning materials as well. Let's grow together. The bigger channel is, the easier will be to persuade some course creators to share their courses with us for free.
Let's talk
We are large community but we are not talking to each others enough. Let's get to know each other and help each other with programming-related problems. Learning is always easier with someone. You can join our discussion group and start a conversation
If you have any questions, anything that you would like to change, please write it down in a comment . Your opinion matters!
Thank you for being amazing community
Your @bigdataspecialist
