Statistical Analysis for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Statistical 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 SQL querying and data modelling without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because most organisations have more dashboards than decisions that depend on them, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with storytelling with data, scenario modelling and dashboard design in their own organisation.
