Data & Analytics training

Most of the work in analytics happens before the chart: finding the data, cleaning it, joining it and checking it. These courses teach that work properly — with SQL, Python or R — and the statistics to back up what you conclude.

After this area you can…

  • Pull exactly the data you need from a database
  • Clean and combine messy files without doing it by hand
  • Summarise, cross-tabulate and test differences properly
  • Chart results and hand over report-ready output

From analysis to dashboards

Once your data is clean and your analysis is sound, the next step is putting it in front of the people who decide — that’s business intelligence.

Data & Analytics questions

Which data analytics course should a complete beginner take first?

SQL for Data Analysis. It’s the most widely used data skill, it reads close to plain English, and it makes every other tool easier.

Do these courses include statistics?

Yes. Python covers descriptive statistics and exploratory analysis; R goes further into hypothesis testing, t-tests, ANOVA, chi-square, correlation and regression.

Can my team take these as a private batch?

Yes — and we can build the exercises around your own data. See corporate training.
