Data Engineering & Pipeline Reliability for Machine Learning
By External Provider
About this course
This course teaches you how to transform real-world datasets into reliable analytical assets through practical, reproducible data-cleaning techniques. You’ll learn how to evaluate categorical features and select optimal encoding strategies, measure and document data quality, and apply effective approaches to handle missing values. Using Python and pandas, you'll practice assessing cardinality, implementing target encoding, validating completeness with Great Expectations, and building transparent transformation lineage. You’ll also clean messy fields such as ages, salary outliers, and dates to ensure consistent model-ready outputs. Designed for analysts, data engineers, and ML practitioners, this course equips you with the job-ready skills needed to prepare high-quality datasets that support trustworthy insights and predictive modeling.
What you will learn
- Transform and validate data for machine learning using encoding, cleansing, and data quality techniques
- Design and orchestrate ML data pipelines that ensure reliability, freshness, and pipeline performance
- Manage reproducible ML development using version control and environment management tools
