Course Overview

This course comprehensively introduces the key statistical concepts and techniques essential for data analytics. It is designed for individuals looking to build a statistics foundation, focusing on practical applications in data-driven decision-making. Throughout the course, students will learn to apply statistical methods to real-world data, interpret the results, and use these insights to inform business decisions. We highly recommend this course to the students before starting our "Data Science with Python" and the "AI and Machine Learning with Python" courses.

Requirements

  • Basic arithmetic skills
  • Familiarity with basic algebra concepts
  • Basic knowledge of programming (preferably Python)

You may also complete the following course(s) before attending the Statistics for Data Analytics course but they are not mandatory:
