COURSE DESCRIPTION

Why Should You Take This Level 1 and 2 - Complete Hands-On Business Analytics Online Anytime Course?

This Level 1 and 2 - Complete Hands-On Business Analytics Online Anytime course combines Aryng's Level-1 and Level-2 agenda to deliver the complete analytics training for business professionals. Business analytics delivers actionable insights for those who are making decision in their day-to-day work flow and want to add the "smarts" to their decisions. This course enables new interpretations and evaluations of business performance based on data using simple yet powerful statistical techniques: Aggregate Analysis, Correlation Analysis, Trend Analysis and Sizing Analysis.

The focus of this hands-on workshop, is to give business professionals a tool, a recipe to glean insights from data and drive impact. This is done using Aryng's proprietary BADIR framework. The BADIR framework takes the business professional on a journey that begins with a business question, proceeds to core analysis, and concludes by deriving insights and making an impact. The framework has 2 parallel tracks- Blue track is the technical track, towards insights. Green track covers the business/soft side of decision making using data. Together they complete the process of Analytics, which doesn't just stop at insights but extends into decisions, into actions and ultimately savings. We recommend taking 6 weeks to complete this course, dedicating 4-5 hours every week. Attendees need a laptop loaded with Microsoft Excel or equivalent software for exercises.
