📈 #33 Struggling with optimization?
Dive into practical, game-based learning, no heavy math required.
Today, I have something to announce to you.
Something free, via email, and yes... It's a course!
OR from 0 to 1 is a 7-day email course that will teach you the fundamentals of Operations Research without the need for prior knowledge.
I've seen many other courses that teach very complex mathematics or very sophisticated algorithms. There's none of that here. A bit of mathematics, I won't lie to you. But mainly, you will learn through games and practical exercises. I've always thought that:
practice > theory
And Operations Research should not be an exception.
What will you find in this course?
An introduction to OR to understand the value it brings.
How to identify optimization problems in your company.
The fundamentals of optimization, so you can translate those business problems into a mathematical problem that a machine can solve for you.
Games and practical exercises that you can solve with free tools that everyone can use.
I'm opening the course now for 10 days until 04/17 at 23:59, exclusively for a few people, around 15, whom I will select myself based on their potential to learn OR.
If you are part of this first group, I’ll give you access to the course and, in addition, at the end of it you’ll have a 1:1 session with me for 30 minutes where you can ask me anything you want (general advice, career, development of mathematical models or optimization algorithms...) and I’ll ask you for feedback about the course.
Nothing more, and nothing less.
The details, here: OR from 0 to 1.
But if you have any questions, you know you can always write me a comment or connect with me through LinkedIn or Twitter/X.
See you soon,
Borja.
