Siemens AG – Digi Peergroups – how to spread Citizen Data Science

Your organisation’s staff need and want to further their education and learn technologies such as KNIME for workflow automation or Qlik for visualizing their data. There are online or in-person trainings for this, offered by special training providers. These trainings mean costs and high time investments for each learning employee, whereby the training contents imparted often only to a small extent

a) contain exactly what the learner is looking for

b) provide concrete simplification of the learner’s daily work, and therefore

c) don’t provide long term-benefit or are forgotten rapidly, and

d) do not have a good cost-benefit ratio. With Digi Peergroups we have found a solution to this problem.
