In its latest Future of Jobs Report, the World Economic Forum identified big data analytics as the top technology adoption trend for organizations in North America.
Organizations generate a wealth of data through their everyday operations. Mining through that data to extract meaningful information can be a daunting task if you don’t have the expertise or the right tools to do it. That’s what analytics is about: changing data into knowledge and turning knowledge into action.
This series is designed for mid-level management who are developing and implementing new business analytics within their organization. Students may come from a wide range of employment sectors, including private, governmental, and educational organizations.
In the Analytics for Business series, you will acquire an overall understanding of analytics and how you can apply it to improve decision-making within your organization. Through a set of three workshops, you will examine the key concepts and the unique skills required to develop and execute strategies in business analytics.
No prerequisites or entrance requirements.
