Accelerate your finance career by using AI and Python

Published about 1 year agoΒ β€’Β 2 min read

Hi Reader,

These days, knowing Excel is pretty much expected.

But if you're in Finance and really want to stand out, learning Python can make a big difference.

Why does this matter?

​Excel is great, but it hits a wall when you deal with big data or need to automate tasks.

Python steps in to handle those challenges smoothly, which is why picking up Python is becoming so crucial for us.

This week, I will show you the stages of mastering AI for Finance, the path of mastering Python, and how you can learn it in just 4 hours.
