The ENGAGE Project has been pivotal in enhancing data science techniques for public health applications. Through this training, I have developed skills in hypothesis testing, data analysis, and interpretation, enabling me to address real-world public health challenges effectively. My analytical capabilities have improved, allowing me to make compelling arguments for effective health interventions. Ultimately, this training will guide my career towards leveraging data-driven insights to enhance public health outcomes and inform policy decisions.

I have gained a strong foundation in public health through ENGAGE training, which has significantly advanced my skills in data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. This training has deepened my understanding of data analysis, particularly with tools like Python and libraries such as Pandas, NumPy, and Scikit-learn. I have also learned advanced techniques in data cleaning, modeling, and visualization, enhancing my problem- solving abilities. This comprehensive experience has not only improved my technical skills but has also heightened my appreciation for the role of AI and machine learning in addressing complex issues. My goal is to become a data scientist, and the ENGAGE Project has broadened my coding skills in Python.

I had a dream and passion for data science but was unsure where to start. When I saw an ENGAGE poster on social media, my journey began. By the grace of the Almighty and the support from the ENGAGE team, I was selected to take part in the pilot training in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. Over the past two weeks, I have gained invaluable knowledge in public health and data science, learning how to apply these skills to solve real-world problems. This experience has had a profound impact on my career path, giving me the confidence and skills to pursue my aspirations in data engineering. With one week remaining, I am eager to continue growing, I believe at the end of this training I will have learned a lot in data science. I am deeply grateful to the ENGAGE trainers for their mentorship, guidance, and dedication throughout this transformative journey.

Being one of the girls sponsored, I have gained valuable knowledge in data science, machine learning, AI and their applications in public health. This training is not only equipping me with technical expertise but also empowering me to contribute meaningfully to society, particularly in addressing health challenges. The support from the ENGAGE Project is shaping my career path and allowing me to envision a future where I can make a significant impact in the field of public health through data-driven solutions. Moreover, the project's aim to bridge the gap between girls and men in AI is motivating me to actively contribute to creating a more inclusive and diverse AI community.
