Practical Statistical Analysis
3 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through report automation and DAX and calculated measures on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with data warehouse concepts, data modelling and storytelling with data in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Improve data warehouse concepts within their own organisation, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Make a decision about data modelling without waiting for a specialist
- Explain storytelling with data to someone who does not do the work
- Review spreadsheet controls and say plainly whether it is working
