  • 1.  Teaching (Supply Chain) Analytics Without Coding

    Posted 07-14-2022 00:42

    Dear colleagues,

    You are invited to a summer online workshop on Teaching Supply Chain Analytics. The workshop is free and intended for instructors interested in developing new supply chain analytics courses or improving an existing supply chain course with data analytics.

    Most students like to learn analytics, but few likes coding. This workshop demos and shares teaching plans and modules (slides, homework, data) on how to teach analytics to general audience (undergrad, MBA, executive, …) without coding. Instructors can use the modules, built on awarding winning cases, games and analysis tools, to teach students problem discovery and solving skills in inventory, S&OP and supply chain contracts & collaboration.

    Dates: August 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 3-4pm EDT (New York).

    Registration and more information can be found here:

    I am a PhD student in Cairo University, Egypt ... I have started a youtube channel dedicated for analytics and specifically no code analytics. 
    I am looking forward to learn ways where I can improve it for SC focus. 
     
    I have two playlists one using Azure ML Classic Studio focused on data mining and another dedicated to SCA using Excel and focusing on Linear Programming mainly as there is a move away from the foundational analytics tool in many professional trainings (which I have learned in Concordia University, Montreal, Canada). I hope someone would benefit form these in Egypt as there is very few undergraduate SC major. 

    The channel:
