Developing the Dreamers of Data + AI’s Future: How 84.51˚ builds upskilling to accelerate adoption

“Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it's almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed — fully understood — that sticks, right in there somewhere.”

The Data Scientists and Engineers at 84.51˚  utilize the Databricks Lakehouse for a wide array of tasks, including data exploration, analysis, machine learning operations, orchestration, automated deployments and collaboration. 

In this talk, 84.51˚’s Data Science Learning Lead, Michael Carrico, will share their approach to upskilling a diverse workforce to support the company’s strategic initiatives. This approach includes creating tailored learning experiences for a variety of personas using content curated in partnership with Databricks’ educational offerings. Then he will demonstrate how he puts his 11 years of data science and engineering experience to work by using the Databricks Lakehouse not just as a subject, but also as a tool to create impactful training experiences and a learning culture at 84.51˚.
