Data Analysis for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Data Analysis for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through data quality management and SQL querying without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because reporting effort scales badly when the underlying model is wrong, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with report automation, scenario modelling and data warehouse concepts in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where report automation is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against established visualisation principles
- Explain scenario modelling to someone who does not do the work
- Take ownership of data warehouse concepts rather than escalating it
- Bring data modelling into line with current good practice
