FUNDAMENTALS OF DATA ANALYTICS COURSE

ABOUT DATA ANALYTICS FUNDAMENTALS COURSE

Numerous organisations and individuals today are embarking on the journey of digital and data transformation. The primary step in this process is data literacy, the ability to communicate, read and write about data in specific contexts and analyse the data effectively. Furthermore, both individuals and organisations need to know how to access and assess data, find meaning and derive actionable business insights.

Putting data to good use is the key for any business. Individuals should be able to use data to influence their daily activities as well as big-picture decisions. It is critical for everyone to know how to do the above, not just the data analysts or the data scientists. Being data literate will allow an employee or individual to experiment with the data and uncover new insights and generate opportunities. In addition, being data literate is a big part of data security and would reduce risks of data breaches and issues.

Our Fundamentals of Data Analytics course is designed to provide you with a solid foundation in the principles and practices of data analytics. You'll learn essential concepts such as data collection, validation, visualisation and analytics, storytelling, and data-driven decision-making.
