TDWI Predictive Analytics Fundamentals (NEW) Training Course in Philippines

The Philippines, officially the Republic of the Philippines, is an island country of Southeast Asia. The island country is located in the western Pacific Ocean, and consists of approximately 7.640 islands. And those islands are categorized under three main geographical divisions: Mindanao, Luzon and Visayas. Manila is the capital city of the Philippines and the resort island in the Western Visayas region, Boracay is one of the most popular vacation spots.

The climate of the Philippines is tropical and monsoonal. From May to October, rain-bearing winds blow from the southwest while drier winds come from the northeast from November to February. That's why the best time to visit the Philippines is during the dry season between November and April.
