The "Developing Credit Risk Scorecard using R Programming" course is designed to equip participants with the necessary knowledge and skills to build robust credit risk scorecards using the R programming language. Credit risk scorecards are vital tools used by financial institutions to assess the creditworthiness of borrowers and make informed lending decisions. This course will take participants through the entire process of developing a credit risk scorecard, from data preprocessing and feature engineering to model development, validation, and deployment.
Course Objectives: By the end of this course, participants will:
Understand the fundamentals of credit risk assessment and the role of scorecards in the lending process.
Be proficient in using R programming for data manipulation, visualization, and statistical analysis.
Learn how to preprocess raw credit data and handle missing values, outliers, and data imbalances.
Master various feature engineering techniques to create informative variables for credit risk modeling.
Gain hands-on experience in building and optimizing predictive models for credit risk evaluation.
Learn how to validate credit risk scorecards using appropriate techniques to ensure accuracy and reliability.
Understand the best practices for scorecard implementation and monitoring.
Target Audience: This course is ideal for data analysts, risk analysts, credit risk professionals, and anyone interested in building credit risk scorecards using R programming.
Note: Participants should have access to a computer with R and RStudio installed to fully engage in the hands-on exercises and projects throughout the course.
