Basic Data Analytics is taught with a simple but powerful graphical user interface (“GUI”) drag-and-drop tool targeted at business analysts requiring more sophisticated capabilities than what a spreadsheet can offer. Understanding and using data is increasingly an important part of an executive function.

This course provides the participant with the knowledge and skills to participate in the organization’s data analytics process without any coding requirements.
