The process of learning isn’t exclusive to one class, one University, or one way to learn. I am an advocate of the pick and choose method between free and paid resources.

For the aspiring Data Science professionals, feel free to pick and choose from this compiled list of learning resources that includes free courses, books, and blogs.

Blogs

Here on the TechRoots blog we don’t get a chance often to dive into technical aspects of data science other than to tell you why Big Data jobs are some of the highest paid in the tech industry.

There exists a number of excellent data science focused blogs. Use this list of data science blogs available on Github to fatten up your Feedly.

Books

Go to the local library! The local library usually owns the books you need. I understand the pride behind book ownership, but the local library lets you borrow the same books for free.

Data Science, Data Mining, Business Analytics and Statistics Books

You could read through these online books to see if data science is the career path for you or use it as a precursor to an official college course or professional training.

If you know of books to add to the list, make a suggestion in the comments below.
