This time, we interviewed Masakatsu Kiyosu Kiyosu and Mr. Tadashi Yoshimasa, Representative Director of the Python Engineer Training Promotion Association, a Python 3 engineer certified data analysis test, which was adopted for human resource development at Telecommunications University.
Mr. Masakatsu Kiyosu, Telecommunications University
Hishinuma: Immediately, can you introduce the business that Professor Kiyosu is working on?
Kiyosu: We are promoting data -related human resources development projects of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, mainly targeting the doctoral resources of the Ph.D.The Consortium, which was the representative agency of Telecommunications University, has been conducting the "Data and Repherener Fellow Program" (hereinafter DEFP), and is the fifth year since 2017.The feature is that many companies and universities are promoting the industries and academic co -operating nations in which many companies and universities have actively participated in fostering human resources.
Yoshimasa: While doing such activities, I am very grateful for cooperating with the Association.Thank you very much.
Kiyosu: Thank you for your cooperation.
Hishinuma: By the way, why did you work with the Python Engineer Training Promotion Association?
Kiyosu: When we started working on human resources for data science as donation courses in fiscal 2015, the share of the programming language environment used in data analysis moved from R to Python.During the transition period to the Python3 series, the development competition for analysis libraries such as statistical analysis and machine learning was also accelerating.
Basically, the human resource development program did not evaluate skills by a third -party organization even if the students were certified.Therefore, in DEFP, all of the applicants of the students can take the exam from the start of the data analysis test to this year.The Python Engineer Development Promotion Association is the only qualification organization in Python, and has been trusted by contributors and other front -line engineers.
Yoshimasa: Thank you for your excessive words.We are very honored to have adopted Python 3 engineer certified data analysis tests for DEFP.At that time, I thought it would be a little better to have school corporations and related organizations taking the exam.In the past, I have started Linux, XML, and PHP examinations, but schools related to schools have been taken after taking the exam for corporations.I am very grateful that we were able to cooperate with DEFP, a pioneer in human resource development in data science, and that we were able to take the exam early.
Hishinuma: By the way, what do you think about the Python 3 engineer certified data analysis test?
Kiyosu: There is only a data analysis engineer as a data analysis engineer, and I think that you will gain the knowledge that can be implemented by scope from data handling to programming and server -side infrastructure.There are only Python exams, the numerical calculation library NUMPY, analysis libraries such as Pandas, Scikit-Learn, and Matplotlib of the visualization library are generous, and mathematics and machine learning are also well-balanced, so the beginners are first of all.I think that the establishment and deepening of each field will be quick by learning in parallel.I also heard that it may be a requirement for recruitment of human resources for companies, so I think it is an excellent skill evaluation.
Yoshimasa: I'm impressed that Mr. Kiyosu can evaluate it!Thanks to you, the Python 3 engineer certified data analysis test has been very well received even if you look at the test takers, and since the first year, you have taken 3,300 examinations, and now the number of examinees is nearly 200 % every year.。
Hishinuma: Did you change the data analysis test?
Kiyosu: I learned the three subjects of basic learning E-Learning in the first half of the program and got the data analysis test.As we understand the specialty of these, I think that the two subjects of face -to -face learning that handle business theory and technical theory in the latter half of the year can enter smoothly.Students originally have a high potential, but they may be confident by passing the qualification exam with the completion of e-Learning.In DEFP, 19 people in FY2020 and 26 people passed the data analysis test, and the number of applicants for the exam continued to increase.
Yoshimasa: Thank you for your wonderful initiatives.With this encouraging, we will strive to develop more data analysis engineers.
Hishinuma: Finally, could you tell us about the business development in 2022?
Kiyosu: DEFP gathers the frank opinions of students and incorporate them as much as possible.Supplementary courses are enhanced so that not only analytical methods and theory but also analytical policies and results can be explained in various ways.In addition, we have set up a specialized book library on data science and technology at the Telecommunications University Library.There are almost all Python books, including the designated textbook of the data analysis test, "A new Python data analysis textbook".Students can be borrowed freely, and from April 2022, library users will be able to borrow.I would like you to learn by referring to various documents based on the level and understanding of each programming, and aim to acquire data analysis tests.
Hishinuma: In DEFP, students can achieve results by making use of what they have learned, not just classroom lectures, so that students can actually acquire data science skills.He seems to be doing it.
If you want to know more about this initiative, please read the details on the QA on the DEFP official website.
