Predictive Analytics for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Predictive Analytics 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 governance and visual encoding choices without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with scenario modelling, forecasting techniques and report automation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain scenario modelling to someone who does not do the work, measured against recognised data governance frameworks
- Improve forecasting techniques within their own organisation
- Take ownership of report automation rather than escalating it
- Bring storytelling with data into line with current good practice
