The newly launched Neo4j Online courses, Data Science with Neo4j and Applied Graph Algorithms, aim to introduce users to using Neo4j as part of their data science and machine learning workflows. The courses are designed for data scientists and application developers who want to leverage graph capabilities in their work. Users will learn various skills such as query a database for its schema, build and plot histograms, use link prediction functions, and apply graph algorithms like PageRank, community detection, and similarity metrics to enhance applications. The courses offer free training with exercises to test learning at the end of each section, taking approximately 2-3 hours to complete, and are accessible on the Graph Academy home page.
