This training is ideal for those who are new to data analysis and also appropriate for those who may already be working in tech or data science and would like to specialise and become proficient with the tools and techniques of data analysis.
Today’s world is driven by data. More than ever, companies are striving to understand how to improve their operations by dissecting the data they collect to understand clients’ needs and industry trends.
As a Data Analyst, you could find yourself working within a wide range of organisations across a variety of sectors, but the common denominator is the need to glean insights from data. Data comes in a variety of forms and is stored in a variety of database management systems. And your first and foremost goal is to gather insights from the data. Often, you will be dealing with unstructured data stored in different types of data management systems. To achieve meaningful analytical results, several skills must be mastered.
In this diploma, you’ll gain practical analytical skills as you work through the courses. Not only will you find out more about how data is created and managed, but you’ll also look at the fundamentals of research methods and statistical analysis. You will also develop a strong foundation with the most powerful programming languages available for data manipulation, cleaning, and analysis.
