Managing Forecasting Techniques

Data and Business Intelligence|3 days|Classroom or live online

This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers data modelling and data cleaning and preparation from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with data governance, spreadsheet controls and dashboard design in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Review data governance and say plainly whether it is working, measured against recognised data governance frameworks
  • Bring spreadsheet controls into line with current good practice
  • Put dashboard design on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
  • Explain self service analytics to someone who does not do the work
