This beginner-friendly course gives you a clear picture of how data analytics works in practice, from the first review of your data through analysis and decision making. Instead of diving straight into tools, it begins by unpacking key ideas like data distributions, descriptive and inferential statistics, and the ways organizations use analytics to spot patterns, predict outcomes, and plan their next move. You'll also look at how Big Data and modern analytics tools are reshaping the way decisions get made across industries.

Practical exercises run throughout, helping you put what you learn to work on realistic problems. You'll get comfortable with statistical concepts such as probability distributions, correlation, and regression, then move into forecasting with trendlines, moving averages, and scenario analysis. The course also covers data visualization and prescriptive techniques, including charts, Pivot Tables, and optimization tools like Solver, so you can turn your analysis into insights that lead to smarter decisions.

Refined over many years for an optimal learning experience

This training will definitely help my career. I was able to show my supervisor and co-workers what the software programs have to offer and what I'm capable of when the time comes for creating that construction design team in the future. I was able to provide documentation to my employer that the money spent was well worth it. The training I received at VDCI will become an asset moving forward.
