Data Analysis Masterclass
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into SQL querying, forecasting techniques and the judgement calls that sit outside dimensional modelling practice. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning. Delegates leave able to work confidently with visual encoding choices, statistical fundamentals and data cleaning and preparation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about visual encoding choices without waiting for a specialist, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Explain statistical fundamentals to someone who does not do the work
- Spot where data cleaning and preparation is failing before it becomes a finding
- Bring data warehouse concepts into line with current good practice
