This course is designed to bring a holistic, approachable, and best-practice-driven learning experience to predictive analytics.
Overview:
Updated and revamped, Predictive Analytics, 2nd Edition, provides comprehensive (yet easy-to-digest) coverage of business analytics concepts, applications, methods, and tools, with a special emphasis on predictive modeling and analysis. Over the course of the eight lessons, you will learn fundamental concepts, methods, and algorithms of business analytics and data mining, as well as their application areas and best practices. You also learn how to use a variety of software tools (both commercial as well as free/open source) and how to use those tools to discover knowledge from a wide variety of data sources.
At the end of the course, you will not only know what predictive analytics is and what it can do for an organization but also develop basic skills to practice predictive analytics using numerous tools and platforms, most of which are free and open source. The course is designed to provide thorough coverage of the underlying concepts and definitions of predictive analytics in order to demystify the concepts and terminology of these popular evidence-based managerial decisioning trends and then help build hands-on skills with the most popular analytics tools and platforms using intuitive examples and data sets.
