Fundamentals of Data Analytics Syllabus

INTRODUCTION

The short course of Fundamentals of Data Analytics covers fundamental probability and
statistics for people who work in Data Analytics positions in any industry. Students will gain an
understanding of when and why to use these various techniques from extensive practical
experience of our world class data scientists/analysis teaching team to apply them with
confidence, interpret their output, and graphically display the results. The course emphasizes
the practical issues of setting up, running and interpreting the results of business problem. This
course is much different from the statistics/probability class in the universities since you will
learn from our world class engineer teaching team
