Data analysis is a powerful tool for understanding the world around you. The approaches you learn in this course will enhance your ability to effectively characterize data using models, draw meaningful conclusions, and take informed actions. This data analytics course covers some of the most essential techniques and tools necessary to manipulate and analyze large datasets and summarize conclusions. The course is designed to help you analyze real datasets efficiently, with an emphasis on practical applications rather than theoretical concepts. Interest in Data Science and Analytics; if you have started reading about Data Science that's a great start or you are willing to explore. Also, you should have a personal computer (desktop or laptop) and access to internet connectivity.Our mission is to unlock digital skills and create jobs for 1 million Africans by 2026. We do not charge tuition fees and provide live classes led by dedicated, world-class facilitators, along with comprehensive learning materials and free coaching. To sustain our operations, we charge a mandatory, non-refundable administrative fee of 150 Ghana Cedis per month for 3 months or 350 Ghana Cedis or its equivalent in your country’s currency as a one-time payment for the entire three months course. Thrive provides a standard digital certificate free of charge to all students who complete our course. Additionally, students may request a hard-copy certificate from our university partner for a fee of 300 Ghana Cedis or its equivalent in your country’s currency.Learning Outcomes Data analysis is the process of gaining insights from data to inform better business decisions.
